The RMS-9 MicroVersaTrip
system for AKR low voltage
power circuit breakers ?On­
sists of four parts: plug-In
protection programmer, flux­
shift trip device, current sen­
sors and rating plugs.
The programmer contains
a current sensor-powered,
solid-state logic unit and in­
corporates rotary adjus
�
­
ment switches for up to nme
functions, as well as targets
for mechanical fault trip indi­
cation.
MicroVersaTrip RMS-9
represents the latest tech­
nology in digital solid-state
programmers.
RMS Digital
Sensing of
Sinusoidal and Non­
sinusoidal
The RMS-9 provides accu­
rate overload protection for
both sinusoidal and non­
sinusoidal currents by direct
measurement of the true
rms content of the curr.ent
wave. This is accomplished
by microprocessor digital
sampling techniques.

Sensor
Therefore, the solid state
microprocessor is not af­
fected by component toler­
ance and does not require
compensation for signal dis­
tortion. Since the design is
based on complimentary
metal oxide (CMOS) tech­
nology, it is less sensitive to
extraneous noise produced
by lighting, instrumentation,
radio, etc.
The solid state microproces­
sor technology and fast ana­
log to digital converters
make it possible to measure
the magnitude of the phase
current over a number of
time periods within the cy­
cle. The RMS-9 sampling
rate of 27 per cycle for each
phase allows for errors of
less than 1 % on systems
with distortions through the
13th harmonic. This digital
sampling technique pro­
vides the most accurate
system protection fo� distri­
bution systems that mclude
ac and de variable speed
drives, rectifiers, induction
heating, and other loads
that cause non-sinusoidal
currents.

Protection Features.
The RMS-9 trip line of pro­
grammers provides maxi­
mum breaker to breaker se­
lectivity and custom load
protection. Short-ti�e a�d
Ground Fault functions In­
clude the flexibility of coordi­
nation with and without an
12T ramp. Type AKR power
circuit breakers are avail­
able with High Range In­
stantaneous, No Instanta­
neous, or Switchable (OFF)
Instantaneous, and Ground
Fault. All programmers in­
clude a clear plastic cover
with provisions for sealing
for tamper-proof installation.

the protection programmer.
The low energy signal from
the programmer counteracts
the strength of a permanent
magnet in the flux-shifter, al­
lowing a spring to unseal
the magnet·and trip the
breaker.
Current Sensors
Three toroidal current sen­
sors provide maximum flex­
ibility and reliability with
minimum signal error. Cur­
rent sensor ratios are shown
in Table 30. 1 , page
