SUMMARIZE
GYDCG-UB1K-ARH is a DC-to-Ground insulation monitoring module based on the
principle of unbalanced bridge, which has monitoring and protection functions
in one. It can monitor the insulation resistance value of the positive and
negative poles of the DC floating system to the ground, ranging from 00 to 1
OMO; at the same time, it can also detect the DC voltage value, ranging from
OV to 1 OOOV.
The user can obtain the measurement value through RS485 communication, and can
set the alarm resistance threshold through the DIP switch or RS485
communication. When the insulation resistance is less than this value, the
fault relay operates and the L2 indicator light is on. At the same time,
passive reset and automatic reset can also be selected through the
configuration bit of the DIP switch, and the module stops working at the same
time as manual or remote reset.
GYDCG-UB1 K-ARH is equipped with a high-voltage grounding switch (switch K in
the picture), which can realize the online on-off function, that is, when the
module is powered off, reset, and stops working, its high-voltage switch to
the ground is disconnected, and it is completely separated from the ground.
The DC-to-ground high voltage test is not higher than 4200Vdc.

1.1 – Working method introduction
The insulation monitoring module can be in “working” mode or “stop working”
mode.
“Working” mode| the insulation resistance is continuously monitored in real
time, the alarm function is activated, the ground switch is closed, and the
‘L 1’ light is on
---|---
“Stop working” mode| the insulation resistance is not monitored, the alarm
function stops, the ground switch is disconnected, and the ‘L 1’ light is off;
Notes:
- When the module is powered on, it defaults to “working” mode.
- Whether in “working” mode or “stop working” mode, the DC voltage can also be detected.
The methods switch to “stop working” mode:
- Short-connection the ‘R’ port and the ‘S’ port
- Set bit5 of 02H to ‘1’ by sending a communication frame. After the ‘R’ port is disconnected from the ‘S’ port, or the bit5 of 02H is set to ‘O’ by sending a communication frame, it can return to the “working” mode.
Note: The short connection between the ‘R’ port and the ‘S’ port needs to be electrically isolated, such as a button or a relay is closed to realize the short connection.
1.2.- Fault alarm function introduction
1.2.1 – Fault alarm and reset method
This product can be set in two modes of “Auto Reset” or “Passive Reset”
through the 6th bit of the dial switch. 0: Auto Reset 1: Passive Reset
When the monitored insulation resistance value is < the alarm value, the
module alarms. At this time, the fault relay coil is OFF, the corresponding NO
dry contact is OFF, the NC dry contact is disconnected, and the ‘L2’ indicator
light is ON.
If it is set to “Auto Reset” mode, the relay and indicator light ‘L2’ will
automatically reset when the fault is recovered; If set to “Passive Reset”
mode, user needs stop the insulation monitoring work to reset the fault relay
and indicator light ‘L2’.
Methods to stop insulation monitoring include:
(1) Short-connected the ‘R’ port and ‘S’ port
(2) Set the bit5 position of 02H to ‘1’ by sending a communication frame.
1.2.2 • Insulation resistance alarm threshold setting
The insulation resistance alarm threshold can be set through the 1-5 digits of
the DIP switch, the 1-4 digits are the setting value, and the 5 digit is the
setting multiplier.
Example: If the setting value is 15 and the multiplier is 10, the set alarm
value is 150KO.
When all digits 1-4 are set to ‘O’, the internal alarm value will be used. The
internal alarm value can only be set by rewriting the value of O?H through
RS485 communication. default is OKO. The internal alarm value set by the
communication is stored in the flash, and it will not be erased when the power
is turned off.
