Rated voltages are 100, 230, 400, 480 VAC selected by order - see order codes. Measuring voltage frequency range is from 44 up to 68 Hz. NPU power supply voltage can be in the range 90 ÷ 250 VAC or 16 ÷ 110 VDC selected by order - see order codes.
NPU Mechanical Design The NPU is packaged in a plastic box for assembly on a mounting plate TS 35 (DIN rail 35 mm). NPU could be also mounted with two screws M4 (with span 60mm) to a mounting board. For this alternative it is necessary to take out and turn clamp on the rare side of the box.
3. Installation Power Supply There are two types of NPU units – see chapter 7 – Order codes: power supply is in range 90 ÷ 250 VAC NPU XXX/YYY/230VAC power supply is in range 16 ÷ 110 VDC NPU XX/YYY/24VDC Power supply polarity is not important in the case of DC power.
Flashing of LED ERR indicates NPU internal failure. Check all adjusted parameters. If ERR is still flashing, send NPU for repair. Output Relays RE1 and RE4 are used mainly for proper adjusting and tests of NPU parameters. RE2 and RE3 are used mainly for protection. Relay RE1: The relay RE1 opens at any new failure without delay.
2. parallel and island mode The vector protection controls the mains circuit breaker. The NPU detects mains failure within 30 ms. The total time of disconnection is shorter than 100 ms including disconnecting time of the circuit breaker. The requirement for generator disconnection comes on power change of more than 15% - 20%. Slow changes of frequency (e.g.

As shown in the timing diagram the voltage jumps to an other value and the phase position changes. This procedure is named phase or vector surge. NPU continuously measures the cycles, starting each zero up ward slope. The time cycle is internally compared to the quartz table reference time. In case of vector surge the zero up ward is delayed and the device trips instantaneously.
If the required parameter value is displayed press the SET button again and the new value is stored. If a new value is out of allowed range the NPU sets it to proximate value. Caution: a new value is applied immediately.
