239 Motor Protection System The 239 is a digital motor protection system designed for three phase AC motors and associated mechanical equipment . Advanced protection features include: Thermal Overload This function calculates the thermal capacity used by the motor during different stages of the motor operation. The value is updated based on the timecurrent overload characteristics and the motor overload lockout time setpoints. Motor Starting Motor Protection During acceleration, the motor is protected by an I2t overcurrent curve which passes through the setpoints “Locked Rotor Current” and cold...

239 Motor Protection System dust. The 239 can trigger a trip or an alarm if the ground pickup level is exceeded. A time delay may be entered for time coordination of systems with several levels of ground fault detection. There are two ground inputs available in the 239, allowing two methods of ground protection. • Core balance (Zero sequence) High Impedance Ground Fault (HGF) current transformers with 5A secondary • Core balance (Zero sequence) current transformers with a 50:0.025 Amp current ratio for sensitive current detection. When the residual connection of the phase CTs is used to detect...

239 Motor Protection System Fault Diagnosis The 239 keeps a record of the cause of the last five trips issued. The relay will also record the phase current, ground current, and RTD temperatures measured at the time of the last trip. Motor Alarming Alarm functions include immediate overload warning, unbalance, undercurrent and internal self check fault . Often an alarm can be generated soon enough to enable corrective action to be taken before a trip occurs. Testing Motor Protection While periodic calibration is not required, the PICKUP LED is useful during commissioning or routine verification...
