ACREL AM5 Series Medium Voltage Feeder and Transformer Protection Relay

From $3,947.00Sale Price
ACREL AM5 Series Medium Voltage Feeder and Transformer Protection Relay is a microcomputer protection relay designed for protection, measurement and control in medium-voltage electrical systems. Depending on the selected configuration, it can provide functions for feeder, transformer, motor, capacitor, bus-tie and voltage protection. Communication options include RS485 with Modbus and IEC protocols, while measurement and event recording support system monitoring and fault analysis.
Quantity

The ACREL AM5 Series Medium Voltage Feeder and Transformer Protection Relay is intended for electrical protection and control applications where a range of protection functions need to be combined with measurement and communication.

The series uses application-specific configurations rather than one universal protection arrangement. Available versions include models for line and feeder protection, transformer protection, motor protection, capacitor protection, bus-tie protection and voltage-related applications.

How it works

  • The relay receives electrical signals from the associated power system through its voltage and current inputs.
  • It measures electrical parameters such as current, voltage, frequency, power factor and active power.
  • The selected protection functions continuously evaluate the electrical conditions against configured protection settings.
  • When a configured protection condition is detected, the relay can provide the appropriate protection or control operation.
  • Communication interfaces allow operating information and selected relay functions to be incorporated into a supervisory or power management system.

Why choose this product?

The main advantage of the ACREL AM5 Series Medium Voltage Feeder and Transformer Protection Relayis its application-specific approach. Rather than using the same protection configuration for every installation, the series provides different versions suited to particular electrical equipment and protection requirements.

It also combines protection, measurement, control and communication functions, reducing the need for separate devices where these functions are required within the same switchgear or substation application.

Benefits

  • Supports multiple medium-voltage protection applications within one product family.
  • Provides electrical measurement alongside protection functions.
  • Supports remote and local control functions on applicable configurations.
  • Provides RS485 communication for integration with monitoring and control systems.
  • Records sequence-of-events and system information to assist with fault investigation and system monitoring.
  • Programmable logic is available for application-specific control requirements.
