Model 250A is an auto ranging voltage monitor designed to protect 3-phase
motors regardless of size. It is used on 190-480VAC, 50 to 60 Hz motors to
protect the motors from damage caused by single phasing, low voltage,
phase reversal, voltage unbalance, and also high voltage. Added features
include the DPDT contacts that are used to perform two functions when
parameters are exceeded in addition to the standard adjustable restart delay.
A unique microcontroller-based voltage and phase sensing circuit constantly
monitors the three phase voltages to detect harmful power line conditions.
When a harmful condition is detected, the MotorSaver's output relay is
deactivated after a specified trip delay. The output relay reactivates after
power line conditions return to an acceptable level for a specified amount of
time (Restart Delay).The trip and reset delays prevent nuisance tripping due
to rapidly fluctuating power line conditions.
