MOTOR CONTROL AND PROTECTION UNIT M10X USER GUIDE
—
02. Product overview
Introduction
M10x is an intelligent motor control and
protection device based on current measurement
or current measurement and voltage
measurement. It is designed to be integrated with
with ABB Low Voltage switchgear MNS® and
NeoGear
TM
. ABB Low voltage switchgear with
M10x device provides customer a simply but intelli-
gent motor control center solution.
M10x device have measuring, monitoring, motor
protection and controlling functions built in one
single unit. By configuring of parameters to the
device, M10x device is customized and engineered
with application specific motor protection, moni-
toring and controlling features to serve different
industry process. Each motor starter is usually
managed by one M10x device with standard di-
mension regardless different available functions.
Available with communication interfaces
(PROFIBUS DP, MODBUS RTU and TCP), M10x inte-
grates smoothly and efficiently into industrial
control and plant management systems. Every in-
dividual M10x device can be accessed and interro-
gated to determine both actual and operating pa-
rameters. Fast response time for alarm or trip sta-
tus makes real time control of a complete process
possible. Statistical recording of running hours
and number of operations assists with predictive
maintenance scheduling.
For AC motor and the operated installations this
means:
• Reliable protection
• Maximum utilization
• Continuous supervision
• Flexibility

Components Description
Main unit
The main unit is constructed with two parts: the
electronics of the motor control unit and the
integrated CT. Main unit is a one type device with
the integrated CT range starting from 0.24 to
63A. For motor ratings 63A ~6300A,
interposing CTs are required. (Fig 01)
Operator panel MD21/MD31
The operator panel is the user interface mounted
on the front door or drawer. With control buttons,
LED, LCD module (MD21 only), MD21/MD31
provides functions for motor control, supervision
and parameterizing. One operator panel is pro-
vided for each main unit upon request.(Fig 01)
