Thermal protection with RTD thermometric probes - 26
Preface
The measure of temperature is acquired by means of Pt100 (RTD Resistive Temperature sensing
Devices) probed, connected to the MPT module.
[1]
A direct thermal protection element with eight PT100 thermometric probes (RTD Resistive Thermal
Device) provides protection against premature ageing or breakdown of the insulating materials
through overheating.
Thermal protection using thermometric probes offers greater reliability than Thermal overload-based
indirect protection, since it is not influenced by inaccuracies in the time constant for the thermal
model of the machinery and by variations in the surrounding temperature.
For each thermometric probe an alarm (Th
ALx
, where x=1...8 points one of the eight probes) and one
trip adjustable threshold is provided (Th>
x
), with adjustable operating time (t
ThALx
and t
Th
>
x
>);if the
measured temperature overcomes the threshold, the relative alarm and/or trip is issued when the
timer expires.
The adjustments are operable in °C.
The Pt100 probes detect the temperature in the range -50 °C...+250 °C (at 0 °C its resistance is 100
ohm); an alarm indicates any interruption or short-circuiting of the probe or related connections to
the MPT module; the information is available inside the Read \ PT100 menu:
• Ptx probe ON to point a measure inside the range
• Ptx probe LOW to point a measure lower the range (short circuit of probe and/or wires)
• Ptx probe HIGH ao point a measure higher the range (breaking of probe and/or wires).
Self reset is performed when faults are cleared.
The measure of each probe is updated at 2 s time intervals.
All alarm and/or trip elements can be enabled or disabled by setting ON or OFF the ThALxEnable
e Th>xEnableparameters inside the Set \ Profile A(or B) \ Thermal protection with RTD thermo-
metric probes - 26 \ PTx Probe \ ThALx Alarm (ThALx Trip) where x = 1...8.
Each trip threshold (Th>x) may be associated with the breaker failure (BF) function by setting ON
the Th>xBFparameters inside the Set \ Profile A(or B) \ Thermal protection with RTD thermometric
probes - 26 \ PTx Probe \ ThALx Trip where x = 1...8.

Note 1 The 26 menu is available when the MPT module is enabled
Note 2 The common settings concerning the Breaker failure protection are adjustable inside the Breaker Failure - BF menu.
