The standard SEL-734B includes low-energy analog (LEA) inputs for voltage and current sensing. ➤ One Controller, Many Applications. The SEL-734B adapts to multiple applications ranging from basic three-pole control to intelligent single-pole control. Configurable logic and integrated communications ensure that the SEL-734B supports future system demands. ➤ Preconfigured Control Strategies. SEL offers a selection of ACSELERATOR QuickSet® SEL-5030 Software templates that support control strategies from basic voltage-based control to advanced singlepole kVAR control with voltage override. ➤ Plug-and-Play Configurations. SEL offers full-size and compact enclosures which install in many types of sites. Rugged military-grade cables allow direct connections from the SEL-734B controller to line-post sensors and capacitor switches. ➤ Advanced Power Quality Monitoring and Trending. All SEL-734B models include harmonic measurements, load profile trending, voltage sag/swell/interruption (VSSI) recording, and waveform capture. The Advanced Power Quality and Monitoring option measures harmonics to the 50th order, captures waveforms at 8 kHz, and offers 192 channels of profile trending. ➤ SEL DNA™ (Distribution Network Automation) Ready. Capacitor controls are integral to systemwide volt/VAR control schemes. The SEL-734B integrates seamlessly into system-wide distribution control schemes to linearize voltage profiles and minimize VAR-induced I2R losses. Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories, Inc.
