- Ten year warranty
Description
The Liitelfuse MPU-32 Motor Protection Unit provides current and temperature-based protection, metering, and data logging for three-phase low-voltage medium-horsepower induction motors.
This relay is ideal for retrofitting and upgrading obsolete or aging motor protection using existing CTs. See the PMA Family of Panel Mount Adapter Kits to replace common obsolete relays.
The Current Input Module (MPU-CIM) is the interface between the MPU-32 relay and the 5-A-secondary, 1-A-secondary, and sensitive current transformers. The MPU-CIM is ordered separately.
Overload - IEEE # 49, 51
Extends motor life and prevents insulation failures and fires.
Dynamic thermal model
Provides protection through starting, running, and cooling cycles.
Earth fault – IEEE # 50G/N, 51G/N
Prevents catastrophic failures and fires.
Current unbalance/Phase loss/Phase reverse – IEEE # 46
Prevents overheating due to unbalanced phases.
RTD temperature – IEEE # 38, 49
MPS-RTD module for high-ambient or loss-of-ventilation protection.
Phase loss/Phase reverse (current) – IEEE # 46
Detects unhealthy supply conditions.
Overcurrent – IEEE # 50, 51
Prevents catastrophic failures and fires; extends motor life.
Jam
Prevents motor damage by detecting mechanical jams or excessive loading.
Undercurrent – IEEE # 37
Detects low level or no-load conditions.
PTC overtemperature – IEEE # 49
Overtemperature (PTC) protection for high-ambient or loss-of-ventilation detection.
Starts per hour – IEEE # 66
Limits the motor starts per hour to prevent overheating.
Differential – IEEE # 87
Optional MPS-DIF module for sensitive winding-fault protection.
Reduced overcurrent mode
Minimises arc-flash hazards during maintenance.
Metering
View measured and calculated parameters with on-board display.
MPU-CIM
Separate current input module to reduce risk of open-CT hazard and for convenient installation.
Analog output
Provides means for metering selectable parameters.
Data logging
On-board 100-event recorder for data logging.
Conformal coating
Internal circuits are conformally coated to protect against corrosion and moisture.
