1. Description

REM610 is a motor IED for the protection
and supervision of medium sized and large
asynchronous LV motors and small and
medium-sized asynchronous HV motors in
manufacturing and process industry. REM610
is a member of ABB's Relion
control product family and part of its 610
product series. The 610 series includes
protection IEDs for feeders, motors and for
general system voltage supervision. The plug-
in design of the 610 series IEDs facilitates the
commissioning of the switchgear and enables
fast and safe insertion and withdrawal of IED
plug-in units.
The IED is primarily targeted at protecting
large asynchronous low-voltage motors and
small and medium-sized high-voltage
asynchronous motors. REM610 handles
electrical fault conditions during motor start
up, normal operation, idling, and cooling
down at standstill, e.g. in pump, fan, mill or
crusher applications. The IED can be used
with both circuit-breaker controlled and
contactor-controlled drives. REM610 can also
be used for the protection of cables' feeders
and distribution transformers that require
®
protection and
thermal overload protection besides
overcurrent, earth-fault and phase unbalance
protection. Further, the 610 series IEDs are
suitable for employment in marine and
offshore environments.
The numerical motor protection IEDs of the
610 series support a wide range of standard
communication protocols, among them the
IEC 61850, IEC 60870-5-103, Modbus,
Profibus, LON and SPA communication
protocols.
