Protection Relays
Voltage Monitoring Relays
WVM SERIES
Description
The WVM Series provides protection against premature
equipment (motor) failure caused by voltage faults on the
3-phase line. The WVM’s microcontroller design provides reliable
protection even if regenerated voltages are present. It combines
dependable fault sensing with a 10 fault memory and a 6 LED
status display. Part instrument, part control, the WVM protects
your equipment when you’re not there and displays what
happened when you return. The WVM is fully adjustable and
includes time delays to prevent nuisance tripping and improve
system operation. Time delays include a 0.25 to 30s adjustable
trip delay, an adjustable 0.25 to 64m (in 3 ranges) restart delay,
plus a unique 3 to 15s true random start delay. The random start
delay prevents voltage sags caused by simultaneous restarting
of numerous motor loads after a power outage.

Operation
The output relay is energized when all conditions are acceptable
and the WVM is reset. A restart and/or random start delay may
occur before the output relay is energized.
Field Adjustment:
Select the line voltage listed on the motor’s
name plate. This automatically sets the over and undervoltage
trip points. No further adjustment should be required to achieve
maximum equipment protection.

WVM SERIES
Read Memory:
Fault(s) stored in the memory are indicated
when the yellow LED is flashing, up to 10 faults are noted.
Memory Reset:
To clear the memory of all faults
stored, rotate selector to Clear Memory for 5 seconds.
The yellow LED will turn off.
Memory Overload:
Only the 10 most recent faults
are retained.
Random Start Delay:
A new 3 to 15s random start delay is
selected by the microcontroller when a fault is corrected and
when the operating voltage (L1, L2, L3) is applied to the WVM.
A random start delay does not occur when the reset is manual.
Automatic Restart:
Upon fault correction, the output will
re-energize after a random start delay.
Automatic Restart Upon Fault Trip:
When a fault is sensed for
the full trip delay, the output de- energizes and a restart delay
is initiated. This delay locks out the output for the delay period.
Should the fault be corrected by the end of the restart delay, the
output will re-energize after a random start delay. A restart delay
will also occur when operating voltage (L1, L2, L3) is applied to
the WVM.
Manual Reset:
After a fault condition is corrected, the WVM can
be manually reset. There are two methods; a customer supplied
remote switch, or the onboard selector switch.
Manual Reset (Onboard):
Rotate selector switch from the
Manual Reset position to Auto Restart w/ Delay then back
again to Manual Reset within 3 seconds. The output will
immediately energize.
Remote Reset:
Reset (Restart) is accomplished by a momentary
contact closure across terminals 1 & 2. The output will
immediately energize. Remote switch requirements are ≥10mA
@ 20VDC and the reset terminals are not isolated from line
voltage. A resistance of ≤20KΩ across terminals 1 & 2 will cause
immediate automatic restart.
Automatic Restart Upon Fault Correction:
(P/N includes an R)
When a fault is sensed for the full trip delay, the output relay
de-energizes. Upon correction of the fault, a restart delay
begins. At the end of this delay, the output will re-energize after
a random start delay. If a fault occurs during restart timing, the
restart time delay will be reset to zero, and the output will not
energize until the restart delay is completed.
