The current is ignored. • “TRN I” — Transition when the starting current has dropped below the setting »TRNC«. If the »TRNT« timer elapses before the current drops below the transition level »TRNC«, the motor trips.
5 Protective Elements 5.2.1.2 Incomplete Sequence (InSq) 5.2.1.2 Incomplete Sequence (InSq) The Incomplete Sequence function requires an input from the report back contact from the process that the motor is running. Shortly after the motor starts, the report back contact provides an indication that the process has started to operate as expected. If the process does not start up correctly, the contact does not close within the expected time.
5 Protective Elements 5.2.1.3 Zero Speed Switch (ZSS ON or OFF) 5.2.1.3 Zero Speed Switch (ZSS ON or OFF) The setting [Protection Para / Global Prot Para / MStart / Start Control] »ZSS« enables the function that verifies if the motor begins to physically spin after a start. It requires a zero- speed switch (digital switch) on the motor that is closed at rest and opens as the rotor reaches 5%…10% of its normal speed.
5 Protective Elements 5.2.1.4 Reversing or Non-Reversing Starter 5.2.1.4 Reversing or Non-Reversing Starter The MRMV4 uses the phase currents to calculate the symmetrical components (positive and negative system).

5 Protective Elements 5.2.2 Motor Start Blocked The reasons for a Motor Start Blocking can be as follows: • [Bl.1] A blocking because of too many starts per hour is signaled by »MStart . SPHBlocked«. ╚═▷ “5.2.2.1 Start Limits”. • [Bl.2] A blocking because the waiting time between starts has not elapsed yet is signaled by »MStart .
5 Protective Elements 5.2.2.1 Start Limits 5.2.2.1 Start Limits Because motor starting consumes a considerable amount of thermal energy compared to its normal load conditions, the number of starts in a given time period must be monitored and controlled. The MRMV4 has three criteria that contribute to the start limits monitoring.
5 Protective Elements 5.2.2.2 Anti-Backspin Timer – »ABS Timer« a cold start before it exhausts »NOCS«. All starts after this are subject to time and count limits imposed by »TBS« and »SPH«.

5 Protective Elements 5.2.3 Delayed Protection Enabling During Motor Starts 5.2.3 Delayed Protection Enabling During Motor Starts When the MRMV4 detects a motor start, various timers are started. Each of these timers blocks a protective function until the set delay expires. This way false trip decisions by these protection functions during the motor start are prevented.

5 Protective Elements 5.2.3 Delayed Protection Enabling During Motor Starts The setting »t-Blo-Frequency« defines the time (in seconds) after a start is recognized until the »f[x]« protection modules (ANSI 81) are enabled. Note that within every »f[x]« module, a dedicated blocking parameter is defined by default for this purpose: »f[x] .
5 Protective Elements 5.2.4 Long Acceleration Time (LAT) 5.2.4 Long Acceleration Time (LAT) The LAT function is enabled at [Protection Para / Global Prot Para / MStart / Start Control] »LAT Fc«. Then the timer »LAT Timer« defines a time interval during which the motor is permitted to accelerate a high-inertia load, which is longer than the locked-rotor time.
5 Protective Elements 5.2.5 Motor Cold / Warm Detection 5.2.5 Motor Cold / Warm Detection The motor will be considered as cold (»Cold sequ = true«) after being in the »stop« mode for more than one hour if the time between starts timer is set to a lower value than 1 hour.
5 Protective Elements 5.2.6 Emergency Override 5.2.6 Emergency Override The Emergency Override function can be enabled or disabled via the setting [Protection Para / Global Prot Para / MStart / Start Control] »EmgOvr«.
