Description
Two of three phases of the motor current are monitored by integral current transformers (External
current transformers are required for current more than 60 Amps).
The internal solid state circuitry compares the monitored motor (or load) currents with the preset
current level.
When motor current exceeds the preset trip current level, the “OC” LED illuminates and indicates that
an overload has been detected.
The relay will trip after the preset trip time (SHOCK TIME) and the “OC” LED remains illuminated
indicating an overload trip has occurred.
When the motor currents decrease, the relay reverts after one second.
If the motor current drops back down below the preset current level before the preset trip time delay
has elapsed, Shock Relay will return to normal condition.
MON lamp (green) shows monitor condition.
It is turned on under the normal monitor condition, and the relay turns off the lights while it is
outputted.
With the visual aid of the “OC” LED flashing when motor current becomes 100
%
of the preset current
actual load current can be determined without aid of an ammeter.
The TEST button provides the means of testing service-worthiness and integrity.
Since the Shock Relay has definite time characteristics, the start trip delay may be adjusted with a
minimum setting of 0.2 through a maximum of 10 seconds.
The trip time adjustment range is from 0.2 through 5 seconds. The relay may be used as an electronic
shear-pin by setting the SHOCK TIME to minimum.
If the Shock Relay trips, always investigate to determine the cause and correct prior to restarting.
