VMP120A
Lead Time: 10 Days
Description Of Function
The relay energizes (and the LED is Red) when the monitored voltage is above the pick-up setting for a period longer than the fixed pick-up time delay of 0.5 seconds. The relay de-energizes (and the LED is Green) when the monitored voltage is below the drop-out setting for a period longer than the fixed drop-out time delay (t) of 0.5 seconds.

Approvals
Operation
Over/Under Voltage Relays provide protection to equipment where either an over or under voltage condition is potentially damaging. They are designed to operate when the operating voltage reaches a preset value and drop-out when the operating voltage drops to a level below the preset value.
Adjust the pick-up voltage setting (Umax) between the full range as shown on the product nameplate. The drop-out voltage setting (Umin) is fixed at 95% of the pick-up setting. The relay energizes (and the LED is Red) when the monitored voltage is above the pick-up setting for a period longer than the fixed pick-up time delay of 0.5 seconds. The relay de-energizes (and the LED is Green) when the monitored voltage is below the drop-out setting for a period longer than the drop-out time delay (t) of 0.5 seconds.
