EATON IL01301074E NRX PT Series Module
WARNING’
- ONLY QUALIFIED ELECTRICAL PERSONNEL SHOULD BE PERMITTED TO WORK ON THE EQUIPMENT.
- ALWAYS DE-ENERGIZE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY CIRCUITS IF A CIRCUIT BREAKER CANNOT BE REMOVED TO A SAFE WORK LOCATION.
- DRAWOUT CIRCUIT BREAKERS SHOULD BE LEVERED (RACKED) OUT TO THE DISCONNECT POSITION.
- ALL CIRCUIT BREAKERS SHOULD BE SWITCHED TO THE OFF POSITION AND MECHANISM SPRINGS DISCHARGED.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE STEPS FOR ALL PROCEDURES DESCRIBED IN THIS INSTRUCTION LEAFLET COULD RESULT IN DEATH, BODILY INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
WARNING
THE INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED IN THIS IL AND ON PRODUCT LABELS HAVE TO BE
FOLLOWED. OBSERVE THE FIVE SAFETY RULES:
- DISCONNECTING
- ENSURE THAT DEVICES CANNOT BE ACCIDENTALLY RESTARTED
- VERIFY ISOLATION FROM THE SUPPLY
- EARTHING AND SHORT-CIRCUITING
- COVERING OR PROVIDING BARRIERS TO ADJACENT LIVE PARTS DISCONNECT THE EQUIPMENT FROM THE SUPPLY. USE ONLY AUTHORIZED SPARE PARTS IN THE REPAIR OF THE EQUIPMENT. THE SPECIFIED MAINTENANCE INTERVALS AS WELL AS THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR REPAIR AND EXCHANGE MUST BE STRICTLY ADHERED TO PREVENT INJURY TO PERSONNEL AND DAMAGE TO THE SWITCHBOARD.
Description
Note: The content of this IL applies to both PXR and Digitrip-equipped breakers. Appearance of product may vary.
The Potential Transformer (PT) module is a device used to supply a three phase voltage signal to series NRX NF-frame or RF-frame circuit breakers equipped with Digitrip 1150 or PXR programmable trip units.
Specifications:
The output of the module is directly proportional to the input voltage
according to the ratio given below (Table 1).
Table 1. Voltage ratios.
| INPUT | OUTPUT (NORMAL) |
|---|---|
| 208V L-L | 1.95V L-N |
| 240V L-L | 2.25V L-N |
| 415V L-L | 3.89V L-N |
| 440V L-L | 4.13V L-N |
| 480V L-L | 4.50V L-N |
| 600V L-L | 5.63V L-N |
| 690V L-L | 6.47V L-N |
- Maximum rated input voltage: 690 volts line to line
- Burden: 1 VA per phase
- Output voltage accuracy: +/-2% of normal
WARNING
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL OR PERFORM MAINTENANCE ON EQUIPMENT WHILE IT IS
ENERGIZED. DEATH OR SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY CAN RESULT FROM CONTACT WITH
ENERGIZED EQUIPMENT. ALWAYS VERIFY THAT NO VOLTAGE IS PRESENT BEFORE
PROCEEDING. ALWAYS FOLLOW SAFETY PROCEDURES. EATON IS NOT LIABLE FOR THE
MISAPPLICATION OR IS INSTALLATION OF ITS PRODUCTS.
WARNING
OBSERVE ALL RECOMMENDATIONS, NOTES, CAUTIONS, AND WARNINGS RELATING TO THE
SAFETY OF PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT. OBSERVE AND COMPLY WITH ALL GENERAL AND
LOCAL HEALTH AND SAFETY LAWS,CODES, AND PROCEDURES.
Note: The recommendations and information contained herein are based on
experience and judgment, but should not be considered to be all-inclusive or
to
cover every application or circumstance that may arise.
Installation
The series NRX PT module is to be mounted on a standard 35mm EN DIN rail and connects to the breaker as shown. Figures 2 and 3 show a 3-pole, 3-wire configuration. Figures 4 through 7 show connections for a 3-pole breaker and a 4-pole breaker with an external neutral sensor.
The PT module secondary may connect up to 16 Series NRX breakers using 18 AWG wire for each phase in a daisy-chain configuration and may extend to the furthest breaker in the chain, to a maximum of 250 feet (Figure 8).
Operation
Switches are provided to disconnect each phase from the mains (Figure 9). All three switches must be in the off (“O”) position before performing dielectric testing of a system where the PT module is connected. When the test is complete, all switches must be in the on (“I”) position for the module to function as intended.
CAUTION
DIELECTRIC TESTING OF A SYSTEM CONTAINING A PT MODULE WITH THE PHASE CONNECTED
WILL DAMAGE THE PT MODULE. DISCONNECT ALL OF THE PHASES FROM THE MAINS (BY
SELECTING “0”) BEFORE TESTING.
AFTER TESTING, RETURN ALL PHASE SWITCHES TO THE “I” POSITION.
