  • Page 7 Figure. 3 - 1. Arc protection device AQ-110FLV. The AQ-110FLV is designed according to the latest protection relay standards and is therefore suitable for installations in rough environments. These include utilities and power plants (both traditional and renewable), various heavy industry applications (off-shore, marine, oil, gas, mining, steel, etc.) as well as commercial and institutional electrical systems.
  • Page 8 4 Device features AQ-110FLV is an arc flash protection device which can be applied to a variety of applications. The device can be used on its own as a stand-alone device, or as a part of a more complex arc protection system by using binary inputs and outputs to connect multiple AQ 100 series devices together.
  • Page 9 Version: 2.05 5 Connections The figure below depicts the connections of AQ-110FLV. Please note that the SF relay is in the de- energized position; also note that the device has been halved for the image to allow for space for all connector descriptions.

  • Page 11 Binary outputs are capable of generating a short test pulse every second. Binary inputs of the receiving AQ 100 series devices use these pulses to count the number of connected binary outputs. See System self-supervision chapter for more information. © Arcteq Relays Ltd IM00092...
  • Page 12 This device has four (4) normally open trip relays. Trip relays T1 and T2 are used for tripping circuit breakers. T4 is generally used for tripping one additional disconnecting device, or as a trip alarm (local or remote) monitoring and alarming system. © Arcteq Relays Ltd IM00092...
