Applications

These relays are applicable for EEx motors with intensities of up to 630A and above, which run in potentially explosive areas such as:

  • Petrochemical industries
  • Plastics factories
  • Etc.

The relay is installed outside the explosive area.

Trip Curves

Cold curve: represents the performance of the relay without any previous current flow, first start. Warm curve: the tripping times decrease as the current flows, and are adapted to the motor heating condition based on the thermal memory, the warm condition (IEC-255) is reached after a current of 0.9 x IN (motor rated current) flows during 2 hours approximately.  curbas disparo_G
