1 APPLICATION
1.1 General
UBZ is designed for protection of induction motors with power of 2.5 to 315 kW in case of using the
external standard current transformers with 5A output current.
UBZ can be operated in networks both with insulated and dead grounded neutral.
The unit is of DIN rail design version.
UBZ provides continuous monitoring of mains voltage parameters, current values of the phase (line)
currents of three-phase electrical equipment for 380V, 50Hz, and checking the resistance values of motor
insulation.
UBZ provides protection of electrical motors in case of:
-low-quality network voltage (unacceptable power surges, phase failure, incorrect phase sequence and
phase "coincidence", the imbalance of phase/line voltages, the reduction in the network frequency lower than
the set one and (or) the increase of network frequency higher than the set value);
-mechanical overloads (symmetrical overload in phase/line currents);
-the threshold crossing of the negative-sequence current;
-unbalance of phase currents without overload associated with the insulation fault inside motor and/or
the power cable (the comparison of current unbalance factor according to inverse sequence with voltage
unbalance factor according to inverse sequence);
-the torque failure on the motor shaft ("dry running" for pumps) –protection based on the minimum
starting and/or operating current;
-motor delayed start or rotor blocking;

~ 5 ~
NOVATEK-ELECTRO UBZ-305
-extremely low isolation between the stator and the motor housing (pre-startup check);
-ground fault of the stator winding during operation –ground leakage current protection;
-motor thermal overload;
-overheated windings (temperature of windings is determined using the motor built-in temperature
transmitters or the temperature of the housing when using the external temperature transmitters).
For each type of protection it is possible to have banning and permitting of automatic restarting (hereinafter
referred to as ARS) with load.
UBZ provides for electric equipment protection by means of controlling the coil of the magnetic starter
(contactor).
UBZ detects motor currents when load relay is off (when the load relay is off and functional relay is in star-
delta mode). In this case, UBZ indicates the fault of external contactor starting the motor until UBZ is turned off
or control of motor currents is disabled when load relay is off.
UBZ provides for electric motors control:
- using analog inputs "0-20 mA" and "0-10 V";
- using remote control channels (RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces);
- by buttons on the front panel of UBZ.
Communication
UBZ provides:
- parameters control and transmission by RS-485 interface using MODBUS Protocol,
- parameters control and transmission by RS-232 interface.
Note: Simultaneous use of RS-485 and RS-232 is not possible.
For UBZ operation with PC the program of UBZ-304/305 Control Panel can be used; it is available on the
website of NOVATEK-ELECTRO Company (http://www.novatek-electro.com/production_ubz.htm).
UBZ-304/305 Control Panel program is designed to monitor the status and collect data of the UBZ-305 unit
via RS-232 or RS-485 communication interfaces (MODBUS Protocol). The program allows for saving (loading)
various UBZ settings, retrieving data and save them for further analysis. Data saved can be viewed in the
graphs, comparing the parameters with each other.
Graphic interface of the control panel allows real-time viewing the current status of various UBZ parameters.
The flexible adjustment of interface allows adapting to the needs of any user.
1.2 Operating Conditions
UBZ is designed for operation in the following conditions:
Ambient temperature: from minus 20 to +55°С;
Atmospheric pressure: from 84 to 106.7 kPa;
Relative air humidity (at temperature of +25°С): 30 … 80%.
ATTENTION!
The product is not intended for use:
- in conditions of significant vibration and shocks;
- in high humidity conditions;
- in corrosion environments with content in the air of acids, alkalis, etc., as well as severe contamination
(grease, oil, dust, etc.).
If the temperature of the unit after transportation or storage is different from the temperature of the
environment in which its operation is assumed, then before connecting to the mains keep the unit in operation
conditions for two hours (because on the unit elements condensation may be available).
1.3 Changes in the Characteristics and Operation of UBZ Depending on Program Version
If the software version is 5 or less, then changes in UBZ characteristics and operation are not available.
Version 7: metering of total, active and reactive energies is added.
Version 8: integrity control of voltages and currents calibration factors is added.

2.4 Protection Functions
2.4.1 Protection Types
UBZ performs the following protection types for electric motors:
–over-current protection in phases;
–ground fault protection (for zero-sequence current);
–for negative-sequence current;
–for exceeding negative-sequence current factor to negative-sequence voltage factor;
–for thermal overload;
–undercurrent protection in phases;
–delayed starting (rotor blocking);
–overheating of windings;
–for minimum line voltage;
–for maximum line voltage;
–for line voltage imbalance (negative sequence voltage protection);

~ 17 ~
NOVATEK-ELECTRO UBZ-305
–for improper phase sequence;
–for decreasing of mains frequency lower that setting;
–for increasing of mains frequency higher that setting;
–for minimum insulation resistance of the motor winding;
–for the motor phase loss (protection is operated when the motor current is disabled in one (two) phase).
2.4.2 Maximum phase current protection is of three-phase type.
Maximum current protection on phase is three phase. It is enabled when one, two or three current values
reach the actuation set-point.
The protection has time delay. The time delay can be definite (constant) or dependent (inverse-definite - SIT;
very inverse-definite - VIT or LTI; extremely inverse-definite - EIT; ultra inverse-definite - UIT, time delay of RI
type) - curves are shown in Appendix А.
In case of the protection with definite time delay the motor is off
when the current of one phase is more than specified for the time
T (“Imax delay” parameter).
Is = “Imax coef” (tripping ratio); * “Rated Inom” (motor
rated current), and T is the delay time of the protection operation
(“Imax delay“).
Example: When “Imax coef“ = 4.0, “Rated Inom” = 10,
“Imax delay“ = 10.0, the motor will switch off in 10 seconds after
one of the phase currents exceeds 40 amp.
Fig.2.2 –Principle of protection with definite time delay
Protection with dependent time delay corresponds to the standards IEC 60255-3 and BS 142.
In corresponds to the set-point “Rated Inom” (motor
rated current);
T (“Imax delay” parameter is time constant of the
protection operation) corresponds to time delay of tripping
for 10*In.
For very large currents the protection has a feature
with definite time delay:
Fig.2.3 –Principle of protection with dependent time delay
Appendix Аprovides curves for the time constant of the protection to equal 1 second (“Imax delay” parameter).
When setting the different value of the time constant, the response time of the protection is changed
proportional to the time constant (for example, when “Imax delay” = 10 seconds, operating time of protection at
the same ratio of currents will increase 10 times).
2.4.3 Ground fault protection:
–It is enabled when ground-fault current reaches the tripping threshold (“I earth tresh” parameter);
–the motor switches off if the ground-fault current is more than specified for the time T (“I earth delay”
parameter).
2.4.4 Negative-sequence current protection (imbalance)
Negative-sequence current protection (imbalance) is enabled when a component of the negative sequence
is more than the set-point (“I2 rev tresh” parameter) and stops the motor when time of this excess is more than
specified value (“I2 rev delay” parameter”).
If the analysis of tripping cause is enabled (“A-s I2 prot”=”On”), then in case of protection tripping due to
exceeding of negative sequence current not because of line voltages imbalance (in this case the motor
problems are assumed), ARS after tripping will not occur (regardless of the value of “I2 rev protec” parameter).
The coefficient of negative voltage (current) sequence is characteristic of unbalance of three-phase voltage
(current). Approximately the coefficient of negative voltage sequence is determined by the formula:

~ 18 ~
UBZ-305 NOVATEK-ELECTRO
K2Ui=
2(1)
1(1) 100
i
i
U
U
,
Where:
U2(1)i—RMS value of negative voltage sequence of fundamental frequency of three-phase voltage system
in i- observation, V;
Ul(l)i. —RMS value of positive voltage sequence of fundamental frequency in i- observation, V.
U2(1)iis calculated by the approximate formula:
U2(1)i=0.62(Uнб(1)i) –Uнм(1)i),
where - Uнб(1)i, Uнм(1)i- maximum and minimum RMS values of the three phase-to-phase voltage of the
fundamental frequency in i- observation, V.
The coefficient of negative current sequence K2Ii is calculated similarly.
If currents imbalance is caused not by voltage imbalance, then motor fault is determined. To determine the
cause of currents imbalance it is necessary to calculate the ratio of the coefficient of negative current sequence
to the coefficient of negative voltage sequence (K2Ii / K2Ui). And if the ratio is more than the value of “A-s I2 coef”
parameter, then UBZ considers that the motor has malfunction.
2.4.5 Minimum phase current protection:
–it is enabled when the currents of all three phases drops lower than the set-point (“Imin tresh”
parameter) and stops the motor when this drop time is more than the specified one (“Imin delay”
parameter);
–it is not active when the load current is less than 10% In (when decrease of the current is due to
motor shutdown, not due to decrease of its load);
–It has its own definite time delay of ARS (“AR time Imin” parameter).
2.4.6 Delayed start and rotor blocking
The principle of delayed start protection and rotor inter-blocking is given in Fig.2.4.
Delayed start
During start-up the protection is enabled when all phase currents are more than the set-point Is (“Start I
Coef” parameter) during the period of time more than the ST time delay (“Start delay I” parameter).
Rotor blocking
After motor start performing (reducing the starting current lower than 1.2 of rated one) UBZ switches to
control of possible blocking of the rotor. The protection system operates when all the phase currents are more
than set-points during a period of time greater than LT time delay (“Block I delay” parameter).
Fig. 2.4 –Delayed start and rotor blocking

~ 19 ~
NOVATEK-ELECTRO UBZ-305
2.4.7 Thermal overload protection
Thermal overload protection is made on the basis of the equation solution of motor thermal balance under
the following assumptions:
–before the first start the motor was cold;
–during the motor operation, heat generates that is proportional to the square of the current;
–after motor turning off it is cooled down exponentially.
For protection, you should enter the response time in case of double overload T2 (the parameter of “Thermal
delay”).
Current-time characteristic with different values of T2 is given in Fig.2.5.
For the standard recommended T2 value (60 s at 2 time overload) Table 2.7 shows the following current-
time characteristic.

For rotating machines, cooling is more efficient during operation than during the stop of the motor, so enter
the parameter “Thermal C stop” - the constant increase rate of cooling when the motor is stopped.
After the load relay disabling owing to thermal overload with ARS permitted, the relay will be enabled
again after the time more than the maximum of the two values:
–time of thermal hysteresis (motor should cool down to 33% of the accumulated heat);
–time of ARS.
Choosing different ARS time periods considering thermal hysteresis, one can reduce the number of starts
per time unit because in the intermittent mode of operation UBZ remembers the amount of heat released during
the motor start.
I/Iн – current ratio relative to rated one;
Т/Т2 – the actual response time relative to T2 (response time when double overload).
Fig.2.5 –Current-time characteristic
2.4.8 Windings overheating protection
The first input protection:
–when working with motor built-in temperature transmitters (parameter “Temp S1 Type”=”R>1.7”)
protection is enabled when the transmitter resistance will be more than 1700 Ohms. Set-point “Temp S1
Off M” is not used: short-circuit and breakout of the transmitter is not controlled;
–when working with transmitters of PTC type (1kOhm at 25°C) (“Temp S1 Type” = PTC parameter),
protection is enabled and stops the motor when the monitored temperature is more than the set-point
(“Temp S1 Off M” parameter).

When working with PTC type transmitters, protection defines the cases of breakout and short circuit of the
transmitter:
–the breakout at the temperature higher than 100°C;
–short circuit at the temperature less than minus 45°C.
The second input protection:
–it is enabled when the controlled temperature is higher than set-point;
–it has two independent set-points: the alarm set-point (“Temp S2 Alarm” parameter) and the set-
point for the motor is off (“Temp S2 Off M” parameter).
Protection determines the cases of breakout and short circuit of the temperature transmitters:
–breakout at temperature of more than 220°C;
–short circuit at temperature of less than minus 45°C.
On the second input the protection is operated with temperature transmitters of Pt100 type (platinum type for
100 Ohm at 0°C) or Ni100 (Ni120) (Nickel type for 100 Ohm (120 Ohm) at 0°C) in accordance with the
standards of
IEC 60751 and DIN 43760.
2.4.9 Voltage protection
In UBZ voltage protection before enabling the load it is necessary to check the corresponding set-points and
depending on their value, the load relay enabling will be permitted or disabled; when the motor is on, the
voltage control is fulfilled, but the decision relative to disabling is made according to currents.
Note –UBZ considers the motor is switched off if the load relay is off (operating in star-delta mode the load
relay and functional relay are disabled), or if the load relay is on, the motor currents are less than 10 percent of
the motor rated current.
The voltage protections are the following:
–at minimum line voltage (it is enabled if at least one of the line voltages is less than the set-point (“Umin
tresh” parameter) within the time specified by “Umin delay” parameter);
–at maximum line voltage (it is enabled if at least one of the line voltages is more than the set-point
(“Umax tresh” parameter) within the time specified by “Umax delay” parameter);
–during line voltages imbalance (it is enabled if the difference between effective values of the line
voltages is more than the set-point (“Uimbal tresh” parameter) within the time specified by “Uimbal
delay” parameter).
2.4.10 Phase sequence protection (“Correct phase” parameter) is enabled in case of improper phase
sequence; it disables the motor and blocks its further operation.
2.4.11 Network power frequency drop protection is enabled, if the network power frequency is less than the
set-point (“Frequency Min” parameter) within the time specified by “FreqMin delay” parameter.
2.4.12 Network power frequency rise protection is enabled, if the network power frequency is higher than the
set-point (“Frequency Max” parameter) within the time specified by “FreqMax delay” parameter.
2.4.13 Protection for minimum resistance of motor winding insulation
After UBZ energizing before the output relay will be on, it is necessary to check the insulation level of stator
winding relative to the housing. The level of stator winding insulation relative to housing is also checked, when
the load relay is on, but the motor currents are less than 10% of rated current (in this case UBZ considers that
the motor is off).
When “Insulation Mr” = “5 AR” (“5 nAR”) the load is disabled if the insulation resistance is lower than 500
kOhm ±20 kOhm, and when “Insulation Mr” = “10 AR” (“10 nAR”) if it is less than 1000 kOhm ±50 kOhm. During
automatic restarting “AR”, the load will on after restoring the insulation resistance and after ARS time finishing.
If “nAR”, ARS will not on.
2.4.14 Protection for the motor phase (-s) break (loss) is enabled, if one of the motor phase current is more
than 10% of the rated one (“Rated Inom” parameter), and any of the remaining phases of the motor is less than
7% of the motor rated current.
2.4.15 Serviceability check of external magnetic starter
UBZ detects the motor currents when the load relay is off (if the load relay and functional relay is off in star-
delta mode). In this case, UBZ indicates the fault of external MS enabling the motor, until then UBZ is turned off
or control of the motor currents is disabled when load relay is off (Cont Cont= 0 ("Off") parameter).
2.5 Selection of Current Transformers (CT)
Rated output current of CT should be 5A.
Rated input current of CT (Ict) is selected based on the rated current of the motor (In), the motor starting
current, start duration, the time required for ARS (taking into account the characteristics of UBZ inputs designed
to connect CT (Table 2.8)).
