TRIP RELAY

 

 

 

 

The EPM3000P has two Relays. These relays are linked through the program to Set Limits LM1 and LM2. The user can program above or below set limits for every reading. When a measurement exceeds a particular value, the set limit triggers and alerts the user. Each relay is programmed to a separate delay time (see Chapter 8).

NOTE: EACH LIMIT CAN BE PROGRAMMED TO TRIGGER THE TWO INTERNAL FORM C DRY CONTACT RELAYS FOR ALARM OR SECONDARY PROTECTION.

NOTE: IN TABLE 10-0,ALL FUNCTIONS HAVE A TWO PART ENTRY.

Part 1: The first switch sets the limit to trip either above or below the limit value.

The second switch sets whether Relay 1 will trip when the condition occurs.

The third switch sets whether Relay 2 will trip when the condition occurs.

Part 2: The second part is the Limit Value.
