Voltage Monitoring Relays

201A SERIES
3-Phase Voltage/Phase Monitor

Description
The 201A is a 3-phase, auto-ranging, dual-range voltage monitor
that protects 190-480 V ac, 50/60 Hz motors regardless of size.
The product provides a user selectable nominal voltage setpoint
and the voltage monitor automatically selects between the
200 V and 400 V range. The 201A includes advanced single LED
diagnostics, where color and light patterns distinguish between
faults and normal conditions.
This unique microcontroller-based voltage and phase-sensing
device constantly monitors the 3-phase voltages to detect
harmful power line conditions. When a harmful condition is
detected, the 201A’s output relay is deactivated after a specified
trip delay. The output relay reactivates after power line conditions
return to acceptable levels for a specified restart delay time.

Features & Benefits

FEATURES BENEFITS
