Key Features and Advantages

The **SR489-P5-LO-A20-E** provides comprehensive motor protection with adaptive thermal modeling, accurately tracking motor heating/cooling characteristics across variable load cycles. Its dual-powered design maintains protection during voltage dips, while the 256-event oscillographic recorder captures pre/post-fault waveforms for root cause analysis. The relay’s self-powered ground fault detection (<5 mA resolution) prevents insulation degradation in critical motors.

Advanced communication capabilities include IEC 61850 Ed.2 protocol support via optional modules, enabling seamless integration with smart grids. The sunlight-readable LCD displays real-time phasor diagrams and harmonic distortion levels. For harsh environments, the conformal-coated electronics withstand 95% non-condensing humidity and 5g vibration levels.
