AC/DC Sensitive Earth-Leakage Relays
Littelfuse EL731 Series
- Adjustable time delay for a wide range of low-level protection and system coordination
- Password-protected alarm and trip settings
- Use in AC or DC mode or both
- Use single or combined ranges
- Adjustable trip levels
Description
The Littelfuse EL731 a microprocessor-based AC/DC Sensitive Earth Leakage Relay offering complete coverage for frequencies from DC (0Hz) to 6,000Hz.
Two CTs are required for the entire frequency range, or one CT can be used for only low or high-frequency detection.
Use the EL731 to add low-level earth-fault protection to variable-speed drives and to dc circuits.
An RTD/PTC sensor input allows over-temperature protection for a motor or drive. The EL731 offers metering, password-protected alarm and trip settings and optional network communications.
Note: a Littelfuse DC earth fault detection relay may also be known as a ground fault product.
We are the exclusive NSW supplier of Littelfuse protection relays and controls for the protection, safe control and distribution of electrical power in industrial applications.
