Relay with ­advanced ­control features

May 2016 Electrical Power & Protection

The NewCode motor protection relay from NewElec features seven inputs of differential voltages from 24 to 220 V AC or DC and four fully programmable output contacts as standard. The three-phase relay caters for the low voltage motor protection market and provides advanced protection and control features.

ISO 9001:2000 compliant, the relay has a user-friendly operation, advanced LED indications for I/Os, fault indication, relay address and infrared data communications. NewcCode provides thermal overload, over and under voltage and voltage symmetry protection, as well as frequency, power factor and power dissipation measurement. More advanced features including starter logic and logic function blocks which, coupled with its communication options, make the NewCode relay an ideal solution for plant protection and automation.

The three-phase recorder allows the user to record the motor currents, voltages, thermal capacity and power factor. The motor performance can be monitored and analysed in real time. This is particularly useful when tripping occurs for no obvious reason. The recorder alleviates to some degree the need for sophisticated equipment to be carried around the plant.
