FAQs

Begin with confirming power availability within the 19-300 Vdc / 40-250 Vac range and 50/60 Hz compatibility. Mount the unit using projection mounting, connect eight digital inputs and nine outputs to your protection logic, and wire current sensing inputs as specified (two channels). Use the fiber optic ST link for Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU communications to SCADA. The system’s removable terminals simplify installation and future maintenance, while the conformal coated boards help withstand harsh environments.
Key specs include eight digital inputs, nine digital outputs, two current sensing inputs, and a 5A/1A current sensing configuration. The device supports 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac power, with 50/60 Hz operation. Communication is via Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over fiber. The unit is designed for transformer protection with zone selective interlocking and protection monitoring, which informs coordination with other relays in the protection scheme.
Yes. It is purpose-built as a transformer protection relay with current protection and metering, differential protection capabilities, and zone selective interlocking. Its Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over fiber enables secure, remote monitoring and integration with SCADA. The rugged design, removable terminals, and conformal coating support reliable performance in substation environments and industrial plants alike.
Certification details for this model are defined by the manufacturer. Typical expectations for transformer protection relays include industry standards such as SIL, CE, and IP ratings, depending on the installation.
