1 .3 Testing 

To test the trip unit,  use the integral test panel. (See Sec­
tion 5.0.) 

2.0  UL LISTED DEVICES 

Digitrip RMS 510 Trip  Units are "Listed" by the  Underwrit­
ers Laboratories,  Inc.®  Under  UL File E7819,  for use in 
types DS,  DSL,  SPB and Series C® R-Frame circuit 
breakers. 

3.0  PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION 

3.1  General 

The Digitrip RMS 510 trip unit is designed for use in 

industrial circuit breaker environments where the ambient 
temperatures can range from -20  C to +85  C and rarely 

exceed 70 to 75  C.  If,  however, temperatures in the 
neighborhood of the trip unit do exceed this range,  the 
trip unit performance may be degraded. In order to insure 
that the tripping function is not compromised due to an 

over-temperature condition,  the Digitrip RMS 510 micro­

computer chip has a built-in over-temperature protection 
feature,  factory set to trip the breaker if the chip tempera­
ture exceeds 95  C.  If over-temperature is the reason for 
the trip,  the Long Delay Time LED will light "RED".

Protection  (LS/G) 

The Digitrip RMS 510 Trip unit provides three basic func­
tions:  Protection,  Information and Testing. A typical trip 
unit and rating plug are illustrated in Fig. 1.  Individual 
product instruction leaflets referenced in Section 9.0 illus­
trate typical Digitrip RMS Trip  Units installed in specific 
breakers. 

The trip unit employs the Cutler-Hammer  Inc. custom 
designed integrated circuit SIlRE 

chip,  which includes 

a microcomputer to perform its numeric and logic func­
tions. The principle of operation is described by the block 
diagram shown in Fig. 

3. 

In  the Digitrip RMS 510 Trip  Unit,  all required sensing 

and tripping power to operate its 

protection function 

is 

derived from the current  sensors in the circuit breaker. 
The secondary currents from these sensors provide the 

correct input information for the protection functions,  as 
well as tripping power,  whenever the circuit breaker is 
carrying current. These current signals develop analog 
voltages across the appropriate calibrating resistors 
including: 

1)  Phase currents 
2)  Ground current (when supplied) 

3) 

Rating plug 

The resulting analog voltages are digitized by the custom 
designed integrated circuits.
