Features
- The device has three arc sensors – according to the number of possible closed volumes of the KRU, KRUN or KSO cell.
- The device is designed to fix the moment of occurrence of an electric arc using optical sensors. The response time of the device in the event of an arc discharge is determined by the GOOSE message generation time (no more than 0.5 ms) or the response (closing) time of the output relays (no more than 8 ms).
- The device allows you to reliably record the moment of occurrence of an electric arc against the background of optical and radio frequency interference (flashlight, incandescent lamps, fluorescent, direct sunlight, radiation from portable radio stations, cell phones, etc.).
- The device provides protection against false alarms in the event of high-power impulse electromagnetic interference.
- The device ensures the formation of a GOOSE message no later than 0.5 ms from the moment the arc occurs and the operation of the output relays no later than 10 ms.
- The device uses a normally closed “Failure” relay, which opens when there is an operating voltage (power supply) and during normal operation (integrity) of the arc sensors.
- In case of violation of the integrity of the arc sensor, a GOOSE message is generated, the “Failure” relay closes, and the “FAULT” indicator turns on. The performance of the device channels is not violated.
- Arc sensors are made in the form of optical fiber with a receiving ring that perceives radiation in all directions.
