LOFLPTUC starts when the current is less than the set limit. It operates with the definite time (DT) characteristics, which means that the function operates after a predefined operate time and resets when the fault current disappears. The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, the definite timer or the function itself, if desired, Operation principle The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Ot ‘The operation of loss of load protection can be described by using a module diagram, All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections, TA satan “Teas ‘START ce elector to (ase—} Figure 37: Functional module diagram Level detector 1 This module compares the phase currents (RMS value) to the set Start value high setting, Ifall the phase current values are less than the set Start value high value, the loss of load condition is detected and an enable signal is sent to the timer. This signal is disabled after one or several phase currents have exceeded the set Start value high value of the element. Level detector 2 ‘This is a low-current detection module, which monitors the de-energized condition of the motor. It compares the phase currents (RMS value) to the set Start value low setting. If any of the phase current values is less than the set Start value low, a signal is sent to block the operation of the timer. Timer Once activated, the timer activates the STAR? output. The time characteristic is according to DT. When the operation timer has reached the value set by Operate 19Section 4 Protection functions ‘1wRS756@87 B 41.6.5 416.6 120 delay time, the OPERATE output is activated. If the fault disappears before the module operates, the reset timer is activated. If the reset timer reaches the value set by Reset delay time, the operate timer resets and the START output is deactivated The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR which indicates the percentual ratio of the start situation and the set operate time. The value is available through the Monitored data view. ‘The BLOCK signal blocks the operation of the function and resets the timer. Application When a motor runs with a load connected, it draws a current equal to a value between the no-load value and the rated current of the motor. The minimum load current can be determined by studying the characteristics of the connected load, ‘When the current drawn by the motor is less than the minimum load current drawn, it can be inferred that the motor is either disconnected from the load or the coupling mechanism is faulty. If the motor is allowed to run in this condition, it may aggravate the fault in the coupling mechanism or harm the personnel handling the machine. Therefore, the motor has to be disconnected from the power supply as soon as the above condition is detected, LOFLPTUC detects the condition by monitoring the current values and helps disconnect the motor from the power supply instantaneously or after a delay according to the requirement. When the motor is at standstill, the current will be zero and it is not recommended to activate the trip during this time, The minimum current drawn by the motor when it is connected to the power supply is the no load current, that is, the higher start value current, Ifthe current drawn is below the lower start value current, the motor is disconnected from the power supply. LOFLPTUC detects this condition and interprets that the motor is de-energized and disables the function to prevent unnecessary trip events, Signals Table 104: LOFLPTUC input signals Tam The Dota | Deseeton LA signal | 0 _| Phase A carent rr signal [0 | Phase B carent Le SIGNAL [0 | Phase Ccurent BLock BOOLEAN | O-Fale | Blok allbnary oun by esating tere Table 105 LOPLPTUC Out signals Nan The Dosen OPERATE BOOLEAN Operate START BOOLEAN Stat 615 sorts “Technical Manual‘sMRS750887 8 Section 4 Protection functions 4.1.6.7 Settings Table 108: LOFLPTUC Group setings Parameter Vales (Range) [Unt [Step [atau Deserta Stat value ow 00%..0:50 xn [901_[ 0.10 Current seing/ Star value ow ‘Stat value high 00%..1.00 xn [901 | 080 Current seting/Star value high ‘Operate dlayime | 400..000000 [ms | 10 | 2000 Operate delay time Table 107: LOFLPTUC Non group sotings Parameior ‘Vales (Range) [Unk [Step [afaur Deserta Operation Operation OM17 On Reset delay tine 0.60000 mm/h 2 Reset delay me 41.6.8 Monitored data Table 108: —_LOFLPTUC Montored data Nana Tes Vans (Range) [Unt Desctsten START_DUR roars | 0.00..10000 | % Ratoof start tine operate tine TorLPTUG Enum 5 Status 2 S * 5 41.6.9 Technical data Table 108: ——_LOFLPTUC Technical dat Characters Vata Operaton accuracy Depending onthe frequency fhe curent measured y2¢2 3H ofthe st val or 20.002 xl, Start tne Typical 300 m= Reset tine =40me Reset alo Typical 098 Retardation tine <35m8 ‘Operate time accuracy nde Uime mode 0% ofthe set value or 220 ms 815 sets 12 Technical Manual
