The Model 777-KW/HP-P2
has the underload trip, adjustable on the face of the unit, based on power, while all the other products in the 777 family provide an undercurrent trip. The underpower trip feature is desirable anytime the current vs. load characteristic is non-linear or has little change. In general terms, smaller motors and slow speed motors have little change in current over the normal load range. Larger motors that are running light loads will also show small current changes over the operating load range. KW/HP products should be used with all small centrifugal motors and fractional horsepower motors when underload protection is needed and with most motors under 3hp. Also use KW/HP products when the motor is derated (Ex: Coal bed methane well with a 7.5hp submersible pump on a 10hp motor.) Other typical applications are mixer motors up to 50hp and beyond that run at less than 1800 rpm, magdrive pumps and can pumps. If in doubt, underpower can be used anytime in place of undercurrent protection. The 777-KW/HP-P2 can display kilowatts and horsepower and a high power trip feature that can be enabled over a network. The high power trip is useful added protection for positive displacement pumps in a restricted flow (dead-head) condition.
The Model 777-P2 is a fully programmable electronic overload relay. It is designed to monitor and protect any 3-phase, 200-480VAC motor drawing 2-800 full load amps (external CTs are required above 90 amps). It provides unsurpassed protection from faulty voltage, underload and overload conditions.
The 777-P2 incorporates a 3-digit LED display that is used for programming, providing real-time operational information and displaying diagnostic codes to aid in troubleshooting a fault condition.
The 777-P2 Series units can be used as a stand-alone product, or it can be used in a network to communicate with a PC, PLC, SCADA system, or SymCom’s Solutions Software with the help of its built in RS-485 communications port. Up to 99 model 777-P2 Series units can be networked together. The 777-P2, in conjunction with SymCom’s CIO modules, supports several communication protocols including Modbus/RTU, Modbus/TCP, DeviceNet and Profibus. The units can also be connected to SymCom’s remote monitors for a simple, cost-effective way to meet new requirements for arc-flash safety.
The unit’s many features include enhanced trip classes beyond the NEMA standard trip classes. The settable trip class range is 2-60, with or without jam protection, and a secondary linear trip delay can be set with a range of 0-60 seconds. If both the trip class and linear trip delay are set, the 777-P2 will follow the faster trip time. Another feature is the automatic dry-well recovery timer that allows the unit to automatically select a restart delay based on the last cycle’s run time. This allows the 777-P2 to optimize restart delay times.
The 777-P2 can be pre-programmed with a 9-volt battery prior to actual installation. This can save a lot of time during initial installations and avoid subsequent service calls when commissioning new projects.
Common applications for the 777-P2 include conveyor systems, HVAC equipment, saws and grinders, fan motors and almost any pumping application.
