Protection Relays
Voltage Monitoring Relays
TVW SERIES
Description
The TVW Series Provides protection for motors and other
sensitive loads. Continuously measures the voltage of each
of the three phases using a microcontroller circuit design
that senses under and overvoltage, voltage unbalance, phase
loss, and phase reversal. Protection is provided even when
regenerated voltages are present. Includes a trip delay to
prevent nuisance tripping and a restart delay to prevent short
cycling after a momentary power outage.
Operation
Upon application of line voltage, the restart delay begins.
The output is de-energized during restart delay. Under normal
conditions, the output energizes after the restart delay.
Undervoltage, overvoltage, and voltage unbalance must be
sensed for the complete trip delay period before the output
de-energizes. The restart delay begins as soon as the output
de-energizes. If the restart delay is completed when a fault is
corrected, the output energizes immediately. The output will not
energize if a fault is sensed as the input voltage is applied. If the
voltage selector is set between two voltage marks (i.e. between
220 and 230V), the LED will flash red rapidly. The TVW provides
fault protection at the lower of the two line voltages (i.e. 220V).
Reset:
Reset is automatic upon correction of a fault.
LED Operation
The LED flashes green during the restart delay, then glows
green when the output energizes. It flashes red during the trip
delay then glows red when the output de-energizes. It flashes
red/green if phase reversal is sensed. If the voltage selector
knob is between settings, it rapidly flashes red.
