Low voltage disconnect 71

Operation

The battery voltage is monitored by the low voltage disconnect and low voltage alarm circuit (LVA). When the voltage drops to approximately -47 V DC, the LVA LED lights up and the alarm is extended to the terminal block.

When the battery voltage drops to the low voltage disconnect level, the contactor opens, disconnecting the load from the battery. This turns the LVD LED ON and activates the low voltage disconnect alarm. When the battery voltage rises by approximately 8 V (adjustable) above the release level, the load is reconnected to the batteries and the alarm is cleared.

The LVD potentiometer sets the level at which the load disconnects and the LVDR potentiometer sets the level at which the load reconnects. Test jacks (TP1 and TP2) provide the plant discharge voltage when the 'TEST' switch is set to NORMAL.

Test feature

The internal test feature facilitates the verification of the low voltage disconnect, reconnect, and low voltage alarm circuitry, without disconnecting the load.

When the panel switch is set to 'Test/Bypass' a ground signal is applied to lock the LVD contactor and the 'TEST' potentiometer is connected in series with the control circuit. Varying this potentiometer will affect the voltage senses by the LVD and LVA detectors. This test voltage can be verified at test jacks TP1 and TP2.

Signal connections

The signal connections are shown in Figure 26 of this manual (see the “Operation” chapter of this manual for the installation of the low voltage disconnect unit).

On the other hand, the MPR15 series is designed for lower flow applications, providing precise pressure control in compact spaces. Despite its smaller size, it maintains excellent performance, featuring low droop characteristics that allow for consistent pressure output even with varying flow rates.

Both series incorporate advanced materials and sealing technologies to enhance their durability and resistance to harsh operating conditions. The body is commonly made from high-grade materials that ensure resistance to corrosion, allowing for longer service life and reduced maintenance needs. Additionally, the regulators feature easy-to-adjust set points, enabling operators to quickly adapt to changing process requirements.

Furthermore, the MPR25 and MPR15 series regulators are designed with safety in mind. They include built-in safety features to prevent over-pressurization, enhancing system protection and operator safety. The design also allows for easy installation and servicing, contributing to lower operational costs over time.

In summary, the Emerson MPR25 and MPR15 series pressure regulators stand out for their precision, durability, and efficiency. With their advanced diaphragm mechanism, robust construction, and user-friendly features, they meet the needs of a diverse range of industrial applications, ensuring reliable operation in every environment. Whether for high-demand or compact applications, these regulators are an excellent choice for maintaining the integrity and performance of pressure control systems.
