APPLICATION
PROTECTION
MPS relays include 21 distinct protective functions as
listed in Table 2. The relay can be configured for any of
these functions to operate any or all of the 4 output
contacts (Alarm, Trip, and 2 Auxiliary). Function reset
can also be configured, with Automatic, Front Panel,
and Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) reset
options. The relay will display a "Time to Trip" value,
which can enable corrective actions to prevent trip-
ping. MPS relays include a Thermal Modeling algo-
rithm, which computes the protected motor's thermal
capacity. The algorithm dynamically responds to
system conditions and includes both tripping and reset
characteristics.
MONITORING AND COMMUNICATIONS
MPS relays include a backlit Liquid Crystal Display
(LCD), along with a keypad to enable local interaction.
Users can apply settings, read parameters and retrieve
detailed trip and alarm data. An RS485 serial link is
also provided for remote interaction with the relay. This
terminal uses Modbus communications protocols.
The RS485 link enables multiple MPS relays to be
connected to a single host computer. The data values
available are listed in Table 1.
The MPS100 Motor Protection System relay is suitable for low voltage, 3Φinduction motors. The MPS100 includes
all current based protection functions, along with thermistor. Additionally, monitoring functions and communica-
tions are included. While motors are very rugged and reliable when operating within their design limits, they are
usually operated close to these limits. However, most motors have minimal margins for operating under abnormal
conditions. A motor protection system is necessary to allow the motor to operate close to its limits and to protect
the motor from abnormal operating conditions. The MPS100 relays provide a comprehensive protection package.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CURRENT INPUTS
The relay monitors three phase and ground currents
individually. The ground current can be obtained from
a ground sensor (doughnut) or residually connected
current transformer. Nominal current input can be 1 or
5 amperes, based on style chart configuration.
THERMISTOR INPUT
MPS100 relays include 1 Thermistor input. The ther-
mistor may be either positive temperature coefficient
(PTC) or negative temperature coefficient (NTC),
0.1Ω-30KΩ.
CONTACT INPUTS
2 Contact inputs are provided for connection of
external protective devices or for remote reset.
OUTPUTS
All MPS relays include 4 form C output relays. Each
relay can be programmed to operate on a combination
of protection functions.

HUMAN MACHINE INTERFACE (HMI)
The Human Machine Interface (HMI) includes a backlit
2-line LCD display and a keypad to allow local interac-
tion with the relay. Likewise, all measured, calculated
and recorded data can be accessed. Three (3) LEDs
are also included to indicate the status of the relay and
the associated equipment.
REMOTE COMMUNICATIONS
The relay includes an RS485 communications port
which can be used for communications with a remote
computer. The communications link enables monitor-
ing of the settings and available data.
GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE (GUI)
A personal computer based program is available for
interaction with MPS relays. This provides logical,
screen-based, program for relay setup.
SELF TESTS
MPS relays include extensive self test capabilities. This
includes power-up tests, manual tests and continuous
(background) tests. Any self test failure is reported as
an Internal Failure, which can be configured as an
alarm or trip condition.
