Page 7: Relay Features
1.1.1 239 Relay Features The GE Multilin 239 relay is designed to fully protect three phase AC motors against conditions which can cause damage. In addition to motor protection, the relay has features that can protect associated mechanical equipment, give an alarm before damage results from a process malfunction, diagnose problems after a fault and allow verification of correct relay operation during routine maintenance.
Page 8 RTDs can be monitored. These can all be in the stator or 1 in the stator and 2 in the bearings. Installing a 239 in a motor starter for protection and monitoring of motors will minimize downtime due to process problems.

Page 12: Typical Applications
Versatile features and simple programming controls make the 239 an ideal choice for motor and equipment protection in a wide range of applications. In addition to basic electrical protection for motors, the 239 can protect against common faults due to process problems, such as: Mechanical protection of pumps using the undercurrent feature to detect loss of suction or a closed discharge valve.

Page 19: Mounting
2.1.1 Mounting Physical dimensions for the 239 and the required cutout dimensions are shown below. Once the cutout and mounting holes are made in the panel, use the eight #6 self tapping screws supplied to secure the relay. Mount the relay on a panel or switchgear door to allow operator access to the front panel keys and indicators.
Page 20: Product Identification
Product attributes will vary according to the configuration and options installed based on the customer order. Before applying power to the relay, examine the label on the back of the 239 and check that the correct options are installed. 2–14 239 MOTOR PROTECTION RELAY –...
Page 21 MODEL NO: The model number shows the configuration of the relay. The model number for a basic unit is 239. RTD and AN will appear in the model number only if the RTD option or Analog Output option is installed. H will appear in the model number if conformal coating is required.

Page 25 CTs should be selected to be capable of supplying the required current to the total secondary load which includes the 239 relay burden mentioned in Section 1.2: Specifications at rated secondary current and the connection wiring burden. The CT must not saturate under maximum current conditions which can be up to 8 times motor full load during starting or greater than 12 times during a short circuit.
Page 26 TYPICAL WIRING DIAGRAM. A ground CT with a ratio of 50:0.025 for sensing primary ground currents from 0.05 to 15 A is available from GE. Connect this CT to terminals 50:0.025 and COM. If a conventional 5 A secondary CT is used for zero sequence ground sensing, connect it to the 5A and COM terminals.
Page 27 Sensing levels below 20% of the phase CT primary rating are not recommended for reliable operation. FIGURE 2–4: Core Balance Ground CT Installation (unshielded cable) 239 MOTOR PROTECTION RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL 2–21 Courtesy of NationalSwitchgear.com...

Page 30 DCS system. SWITCH INPUTS Each switch common terminal 38/39/40/41/42 is internally connected inside the 239. A single common wire can be connected between any of these terminals and a remote switch common terminal to reduce wiring if preferred.
Page 31 Other RTDs that can be selected and used with the 239 are 100 Ω nickel, 120 Ω nickel and 10 Ω copper. RTDs do not have to be the same type, however the 239 must be programmed correctly so that each RTD input matches the installed type. The factory default is 100 Ω...

Page 33 0 to 20 mA output correspond to 0 to 10V (R = V/I = 10 V / 0.02 A = 500 Ω). When the GE Multilin TCS2 thermal capacity meter is connected to the terminals, select the 0 to 1 mA range.
Page 34 Therefore, it is imperative that the serial master and 239 are both at the same ground potential. This is accomplished by joining 485 ground terminal 17 of every unit together and grounding it at the master only.
Page 35: Dielectric Strength Testing
It may be required to test a complete motor starter for dielectric strength with the 239 installed. This is also known as “flash” or “hipot” testing. The 239 is rated for 1530 V AC isolation for 1 minute (or 1836 V AC for 1 second) between relay contacts, CT inputs, control power inputs and safety ground terminal 13.

Page 47: Setpoint Entry Methods
In order to safeguard against the installation of a relay whose setpoints have not been entered, the 239 will trip and lock out until the values have been entered for these setpoints. A warning message “CAUSE OF LAST TRIP: PARAMETERS NOT SET” along with a trip condition is present until the 239 is programmed with these critical setpoints.
