Electroswitch

Applications The PRIM (Protective Relay Indicator Module) is a complete system designed to enhance transformer protection schemes. It can simultaneously monitor up to four sudden pressure protective relays, trip up to four breakers and provide latching indication of the fault source.

Using the information from the protective relays, the PRIM can simultaneously trip the four circuit breakers should a fault be detected. In addition, the PRIM’s electronic logic activates one of four front mounted LEDs to provide visual indication of the specific protective relay that first initiated the trip operation. This LED remains "ON" until such time that the fault has been cleared from the input device and a reset command is provided. An intelligent electronic device, the PRIM is equipped with logic circuitry that protects against false trigger signals due to accidental shorting or opening of an input contact. This circuitry requires that each of the external protective devices must have two changes of state prior to allowing a trip signal. In other words, the device must detect a complete change of state on both input contacts, i.e., the Normal Open (N/O) contact must change to Normal Close (N/C) and the Normal Close (N/C) contact must change to Normal Open (N/O). LEDs replace up to four target relays.
