12.12 Thermal Model Setpoints

The S5 Thermal Model setpoints page contains setpoints for entering set-
tings related to protection of the motor during the starting process as well 
as during normal operation.

As per the information provided above, the settings for the Thermal Model are entered 
as follows in the 

SELECT CURVE STYLE

: “Standard”

OVERLOAD PICKUP

: “1.25 x FLA”

ASSIGN TRIP RELAYS

: “Trip”

UNBALANCE BIAS K FACTOR

: “6”

: “30 min.”

HOT/COLD SAFE STALL RATIO

: “0.89”

ENABLE RTD BIASING

: “Yes”

RTD BIAS MINIMUM

: “40°C” – ambient temperature

RTD BIAS CENTER POINT

RTD BIAS MAXIMUM

: “155°C” – maximum value

THERMAL CAPACITY ALARM

: “Unlatched” – recommended for early warning to take 

corrective actions and prevent the interruption of the process.

ASSIGN ALARM RELAYS

: “Alarm” – the Alarm contact could be use for local indication, 

or to send a local signal to reduce load, before a trip is issued.

THERMAL CAP. ALARM LEVEL

: “80%”

THERMAL CAPACITY ALARM EVENT

: “Yes” – captures event in the event report.

As well, select the overload curve for the Thermal model with the following setpoint in the

12.13 Current Elements Setpoints

The S6 Current Elements setpoints page contains setpoints for entering protection element 
characteristics. In our example, these characteristics are specified under Motor Protection 
heading.

From this data and the resulting calculations, program the S6 setpoints page as indicated. 
When setting the relay for the first time, other setpoints not listed in this example should be 
left disabled.

For the Short Circuit element, enter the following values in the 

S6 CURRENT ELEMENTS

MESSAGE

T

 key after each setpoint is entered to 

move to the next message.

SHORT CIRCUIT TRIP

: “Latched”

SHORT CIRCUIT TRIP OVEREACH FILETER

: “Off” - no filtering of DC component is 

required

ASSIGN TRIP RELAYS

: “Trip”

SHORT CIRCUIT TRIP PICKUP

: “11.7”

INTENTIONAL S/C TRIP DELAY

: “0 ms” - Instantaneous trip is required.

SHORT CIRCUIT TRIP BACKUP

: “On” - if the main disconnect device does not respond to 

the trip command, a second signal will be initiated via an auxiliary relay to generate a
