The TPR-6, Temperature Protection Relay is a new generation of micro-processor based relay, designed to protect electric motors, transformers and other systems from over temperature. The TPR-6 has 6 or 14 temperature inputs that can be programmed to measure Thermistors (PTC or NTC) and RTDs (Pt100).

DIP SWITCHES SETTINGS FOR PT100/THERMISTOR INPUTS DESIGNATION The following must be done in order to set the right sensors connected to the TPR-6: 1. Set the sensor type in the TEMPERATURE SETTINGS page. Refer to section 6 .1 page 10.
Note: This procedure must be done by a qualified personnel. Verify that the TPR-6 is completely disconnected from any power source before this procedure is done. Identify the Main PCB (in All models) and Input PCB (TPR-6/14 only). 2. Remove four screws holding the back cover of the TPR-6 and remove the cover.

This communication system is unmatched in its reliability, flexibility and ease of use providing the ideal basis for the design of a modern motor management system. The TPR-6 incorporates RS485 serial link and uses a MODBUS RTU protocol (The protocol is not included in this document) to provides high speed data acquisition to supervisory computers.
Power consumption: 12 VA or 10W. Recommended fuse rating: 0.5A. Temperature Inputs Types: TPR-6/6 with 6 temp. inputs and TPR-6/14 with 14 temp. inputs Temp. Inputs: Field adjustable (dip switches) as RTD (Pt100) or Thermistors (software programmable as PTC or NTC).
