BE1-50/51B-230/-234 Characteristic Curves
A-17
Timing Accuracy
Timing accuracy is the sum of
±
1 cycle,
±
2%. This accuracy applies to the range of 1.3 to 40 times tap
and is for a given measured multiple of tap. Measurement accuracy of the multiple of tap is the sum of
±
2%,
±
25 mA for the BE1-50/51B-230 and
±
2%,
±
5 mA for the BE1-50/51B-234.
Fixed Time Characteristic
The fixed time characteristic corresponds to the time dial setting and provides delays of 0.0 to 9.9
seconds. The time setting is constant over a range of pickup multiples from 1.0 to 40. Accuracy is
±
1
cycle,
±
2% of the time to trip for time dial settings of 0.1 and greater.
INTEGRATING TIME RESET CHARACTERISTIC
The relay can be user-configured for integrating or instantaneous type reset.
Integrating reset simulates the disk reset of electromechanical relays and begins when the current
decreases below 95% of pickup. BE1-50/51B-230 and BE1-50/51B-234 relays provide the integrating
reset function even when input current decreases to zero.
Integrating reset characteristics are defined by the following equation and are illustrated in Figure A-16.
See Table A-1 and A-2 for the equation constants.
