Feature: Flexible protection inputs and outputs – 8 digital inputs, 9 digital outputs, 2 analog inputs, 2 analog outputs. Business Impact: Enables accurate generator status monitoring, selective tripping, and seamless SCADA integration to reduce false trips and improve dispatch efficiency. Application: Suitable for generator sets in industrial facilities and data centers, with Enhanced visibility via Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over fiber. In practice, this translates to tighter control loops and improved reliability in demanding environments. Feature: Wide power-supply range – 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac, 50/60 Hz. Business Impact: Allows single-supply flexibility across DC and AC power architectures, simplifying installation and spare-part planning. Application: Ideal for mixed-generator rooms and retrofit projects where utility conditions vary. Feature: Removable base relay and conformal coating – semi-flush mounting with removable terminals. Business Impact: Shortens commissioning time and simplifies maintenance; resilience in harsh environments reduces downtime. Application: Useful in rugged industrial floors, remote substations, or marine / hazardous areas. Feature: Communication-ready – Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over fiber optic ST, IRIG-B input, and Trip Coil Monitor. Business Impact: Enables reliable remote monitoring, fault diagnostics, and fast interlock actions, improving MTBF and operator confidence. Application: Critical for parallel genset configurations and centralized control rooms. Feature: Comprehensive protection logic – voltage, current, differential, and protection metering across 50/60 Hz systems. Business Impact: Improves protection selectivity, reduces energy waste, and ensures compliance with protection standards. Application: Power plants, data centers, and manufacturing facilities that demand rigorous protection schemes.
