Monitoring / Protection Relay

ELKO EP offers a range of voltage monitoring relays designed to protect electrical systems from voltage anomalies. These devices monitor the voltage levels and ensure that they stay within predefined limits, providing protection against overvoltage, undervoltage, phase failure, phase sequence issues, and phase asymmetry. Here are some key features and specifications of ELKO EP voltage monitoring relays:


Key Features

  1. Wide Monitoring Range: Capable of monitoring a wide range of voltage levels, making them suitable for various applications.
  2. Adjustable Thresholds: Allow users to set upper and lower voltage limits according to the specific needs of their system.
  3. Multi-Functionality: Many models can monitor overvoltage, undervoltage, phase failure, phase sequence, and phase asymmetry.
  4. LED Indicators: Provide clear visual indications of relay status and voltage conditions.
  5. DIN Rail Mounting: Designed for easy installation on standard DIN rails, making them suitable for control panels and industrial environments.
  6. Relay Output: Typically feature relay outputs for controlling other devices or triggering alarms.
  7. Protection Features: Include time delay settings to prevent nuisance tripping and ensure reliable operation.
  8. Compact Design: Small form factor allows for easy integration into existing electrical panels.

Specifications

  1. Supply Voltage: Varies by model; common options include 24V AC/DC, 48V AC/DC, 110V AC, 230V AC, etc.
  2. Monitoring Voltage Range: Depends on the model; for example, 3-phase relays might monitor 3x 400V AC, while single-phase relays might monitor 230V AC.
  3. Adjustable Thresholds: Upper and lower voltage limits can typically be adjusted within a specific range (e.g., 150V to 260V for a 230V system).
  4. Relay Output: Commonly 1 or 2 changeover (SPDT) relays with a switching capacity of around 5A at 250V AC.
  5. Operating Temperature: Typically -20°C to +55°C, suitable for most industrial environments.
  6. Hysteresis: Adjustable hysteresis settings to prevent rapid switching in response to small voltage fluctuations.
