The ARCON 3G extended arc protection system is based on the following modules:
•
ARC-MAIN-3G Master MAIN unit providing current measurement for additional tripping
criteria (di/dt), voltage measurement, HMI, trip contacts & communication link to
connected modules
•
ARC-DMOD-3SL Module for electrical arc detection via line sensor (ARC-SL)
•
ARC-MAIN-HMI Human Machine Interface to display and control the Master MAIN
•
ARC-TMOD-1QD Tripping module for external quenching device (ARC-AT)
Master MAIN unit provides 3 parallel operating fast binary tripping outputs, trip alarm
and watchdog binary outputs and 3 x 15-segment display for indication of system status
/ error codes. Master MAIN requires programming and parameter setting via separate
software (APPT) for initial setup. All module housings are made of stainless and DIN rail
TS35 mounting. (except HMI)
ARCON 3G extended arc protection system can be easily implemented in different
applications by parameter setting. ARC-MAIN-3G module has possibility to take current
rate of change (di/dt) as additional tripping criteria. Measuring values (U/I/P…etc.) are
displayed on HMI unit.
On top of that Master MAIN is able to trip external quenching device (ARC-AT) via
IGNITION PORT over Tripping module.

Up to 31 Detection modules can be interlinked to the master module via internal
CANBUS communication and maximum distance between the master module and
the last connected module is 100m.
