Power Load Monitors

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides information on Viking® Rotary Gear Flow Dividers and Power Load Monitors, highlighting their benefits in reducing downtime, maintenance costs, and protecting motor-driven equipment. It emphasizes the importance of monitoring systems to prevent damage from conditions like cavitation and unintended line restrictions.
Key Features:
  • Power Load Monitors: These devices are designed to detect changes in motor power load, providing a cost-effective solution to monitor and shut down pumps when necessary. They are suitable for various pump systems, including positive displacement, centrifugal, and sealless magnetic drive pumps.
  • Models: Two models are available: M10, which senses over or under power events, and M20, which offers protection for both overload and underload situations, including pre-alarm and shutdown sequences.
  • Specifications: The monitors handle both 50 and 60 hertz power, single or three-phase, on loads up to 999 hp. They feature programmable protection levels and can be fine-tuned to prevent unintentional stoppage.
Technical Specifications:
  • Voltage and Phase: M10 supports up to 600 V, single and three-phase; M20 supports 100-240 V and 380-500 V, single and three-phase.
  • Dimensions and Weight: M10 weighs 5.65 oz (175 g), and M20 weighs 10.5 oz (0.30 kg).
  • Temperature Tolerance: Operating temperature ranges from 4-122 °F (-20°- +50°C).
  • Response and Startup Delay: M10 has a response delay of 0.05 - 64 seconds, and M20 has a delay of 0.1 - 90 seconds.
  • Protection Class: IP20, with programmable overload and underload protection levels.
Recommendations: The Power Load Monitor should not be used as the sole protection mechanism for sudden discharge line blockages in positive displacement pumps. Additional protection, such as a pressure relief valve, is recommended to avoid pressure spikes.
Contact Information: The document provides contact details for Viking Pump, Inc. and its distributors across various regions, including Asia-Pacific, Canada, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East.

Viking® Rotary Gear Flow Dividers Get More From Your Source... Reduce downtime and maintenance costs Protect pumps and other motor driven equipment Lower operation costs Simple to set ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ Empty tanks, cavitation, and unintended line restrictions can quickly damage or destroy your pumps, costing you time, money, and possible loss of product. The installation of the Power Load Monitor can provide a simple, cost effective, state of the art way to monitor and shut down your pump when a change in motor power load is detected. Power Load Monitors are well suited for systems using positive displacement, centrifugal, or sealless magnetic drive pumps and other types of motor driven equipment. Power Load Monitors will protect the pump and system from damage caused by dry running or cavitation as indicated by an underload condition. Or it can be set to detect overpressure situations* as indicated by an overload condition. Viking offers two Power Load Monitors. The M10 Power Load Monitor senses either an over power or under power event, and automatically stops the motor. The M20 Power Load Monitor provides protection for both overload and underload situations plus triggering a pre-alarm and/or shut down sequence. The monitors are capable of handling both 50 and 60 hertz power, single or three phase, on loads up to 999 hp. With a simple press of a button, the Power Load Monitors can be set to detect abnormal over-load or under-load conditions and apply protection parameters. The unit measures the normal working load, then calculates and sets an automatic shutdown point for detected power changes. Protection margins can be fine-tuned to prevent unintentional stoppage. * The Power Load Monitor should not be used as exclusive protection in case of sudden discharge line blockage on positive displacement pumps. Other means of protection such as a pressure relief valve must be used in conjunction with the Power Load Monitor to avoid pressure spikes in the system.
