Feature of SIMOCODE pro 3UF7

  • Inverse-time delayed electronic overload protection (CLASS 5E to 40E)
  • Thermistor motor protection
  • Phase failure/asymmetry protection
  • Stall protection
  • Monitoring of adjustable limit values for the motor current
  • Voltage and power monitoring
  • Monitoring of the power factor φ (motor idling/load shedding)
  • Ground-fault monitoring
  • Temperature monitoring, e.g. via Pt100/Pt1000
  • Monitoring of operating hours, downtime and number of starts etc.

 

Application of SIMOCODE pro 3UF7

SIMOCODE pro is often used for automated processes where plant downtimes are very expensive (e.g. chemical, oil/gas, water/wastewater, steel or cement industries) and where it is important to prevent them using detailed operational, service and diagnostics data and to localize faults very quickly when they occur.

SIMOCODE pro is modular and space-saving and suited especially for operation in motor control centers (MCCs) in the process industry and for power plant technology.

  • Protection and control of motors in hazardous areas for types of protection EEx e/d according to ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU
    • With heavy starting (paper, cement, metal, and water industries)
    • In high-availability plants (chemical, oil, raw material processing industries, power plants)
  • Dry-running protection of centrifugal pumps based on active power monitoring for the type of protection Ex b
