Microprocessor Relay of Protection for Electric Motor 6/10 kV
RDC-01-057-4, RDC-01-057-5

The protection relays of motor RDC-01-057-4, RDC-01-057-5 with alternating and direct operational voltage (with digital control and indication of controlled parameters) are intended for protection of asynchronous electric motors with voltage of 6/10 kV from the following situations:
- Short-circuit (current cutoff);
- Current overloading;
- Asymmetry of loading (phases А and С);
- Underrunning (phases А and С);
- Rotor blocking;
- Single-phase ground short circuit (GSC) for zero sequence current (3 Io);
- Overvoltage of motor;
- Reduction of motor supply voltage;
- Wrong phase rotation of voltage.
There are following modifications of the relay:
Modifications | Operational power supply of the relay | Checking of line supply voltage of the motor | Current checking of motor |
---|---|---|---|
RDC-01-057-4 | Single-phase, AC/DC 100, 220V, 50Hz |
no | а) for phases А and С, checking of (3 I0) at connection of external current transformer of zero sequence current; b)for phases А, С. |
RDC-01-057-5 | Single-phase, AC/DC 100, 220V, 50Hz |
3x100 V, 50 Hz |
The relay has an opportunity to turn off the action of the following functions:
- Current cutoff;
- Protection against maximum voltage (RDC-01-057-5);
- Protection against minimum voltage (RDC-01-057-5);
- Protection for no-load, dry course;
- Protection for current asymmetry;
- Protection for rotor blocking;
- Protection against ground short circuit;
- Protection against wrong phase rotation (RDC-01-057-5).
The relays can work in one of two modes:
- Current checking in the phases А and С and 3Io;
- Current checking in the phases А and С.
At the same time (except protective functions) the relays have a possibility of monitoring:
- consumption current for phase (IA, IC), 3I0.
- network frequency;
- motor term of life;
- line voltage in the network (UAB, UBC, UCA) (modifications with voltage checking).
The relays are manufactured:
- in climatic modifications for deliveries to areas with a temperate and frigid climate;
- in climatic modifications for deliveries (export) to areas with tropical climate.

At the enterprise on the basis of the protection devices of the RDC series the stations of control of electric motors are produced. These stations are intended for work with the three-phase asynchronous motors 550 W – 350 kW of various producers. The stations are made according to various schemes with a possibility of a full complete set of electric equipment and are intended for automatic and manual control, automation, scheduling and also in various systems of water supply where asynchronous motors are used. The stations automatically support the set pressure in the system of water supply or the set level in the tank, provide complex protection of the electric motor against emergency operation.

The relays RDC-01-057-4 and RDC-01-057-5 provide protection of the high-voltage motors by means of formation (at emergencies ) the signal (contacting) on an open coil of the high-voltage switch switching power supply of the electric motor. Output circuit of the relay are the make contact of the relay "KI" which is connected consistently with an open coil of the high-voltage switch and also the change-over contact of the relay "KI", which is connected consistently with an open coil of the high-voltage switch and also the change-over contact of the relay "KU", which can be used for a signal formation about the excess or the decrease of the controlled voltage or for blocking of the circuit of turning on a high-voltage switch of the electric motor.
The design of the relay provides its installation by means of projection mounting with front connection of wires.

In case of excess of emergency settings on current the delay timer on shutdown and the blinking indication (red color) of the corresponding light-emitting diode are turned on. If for the determined time controlled parameters (taking into account a hysteresis) are not come back to admissible limits, then the output relay KI actuates (the command for shutdown of the high-voltage switch is given) and the constant luminescence of the corresponding LED indicator takes place.
