Environmental Conditions

Ambient Temperature

The ambient temperature refers to the temperature of the air immediately surrounding the device.

 Operation temperature:

 –25 to +70 °C (–13 to +158 °F): Normal operating temperature  –35 to –25 °C (–31 to –13 °F): Commissioning possible

 Storage temperature: –50 to +85 °C (–58 to +185 °F)

Extreme Atmospheric Conditions

TeSys GV5 / GV6 devices are designed to operate in industrial atmospheres as defined in IEC/EN 609472 standard for the highest level of pollution (level 3).

They are tested for extreme storage conditions according to the following standards:

Standard Title

IEC/EN 60068-2-2 Dry heat, severity level +85 °C (+185 °F)

IEC/EN 60068-2-1 Dry cold, severity level –50 °C (–58 °F)

IEC/EN 60068-2-30 Damp heat, cyclic

IEC/EN 60068-2-52 Salt-mist test

 temperature +55 °C (+131 °F)  relative humidity 95%

Vibration

It is recommended to install the device in a properly ventilated switchboard without excessive dust.

TeSys GV5 / GV6 devices are tested against vibration.

Conformity tests are carried out in accordance with IEC/EN 60068-2-6 standard at the levels of severity required by the merchant shipping regulatory body (DNV-GL):

 2 Hz to 13.2 Hz with an amplitude of +/- 1 mm (+/- 0.04 in)  13.2 Hz to 100 Hz at a constant acceleration of 0.7 g

DOCA0161EN-01 03/2020

Electromagnetic Disturbances

TeSys GV5 / GV6 devices are immune to electromagnetic disturbance.

TeSys GV5 / GV6 - Introduction

Overcurrent protection tests are carried out in accordance with the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standard (IEC/EN 60947-2 standard appendixes F and J).

Check for compliance with EMC standard by testing for immunity to:

 Overvoltages produced by the operation of electromagnetic switchgear.  Overvoltages produced by atmospheric disturbance that pass through the electrical network (for

example, lightning).

 The use of apparatus emitting radio waves (such as radio transmitters, walkie-talkies, or radar).  Electrostatic discharges produced by the operators themselves.

Conformity with EMC standard as described above helps to ensure that:

 The device operates correctly in a disturbed environment:

 Without nuisance tripping.  In accordance with the trip time.

 There is no disturbance to any type of industrial or commercial environment.

Opening, Closing, and Resetting the Device

Opening and Closing Locally

To close the device, turn the rotary handle clockwise from the O(OFF) position to the I(ON) position.

To open the device, turn the rotary handle counterclockwise from the I(ON) position to the O(OFF) position.

Resetting After a Trip on Electrical Fault

WARNING

HAZARD OF CLOSING ON ELECTRICAL FAULT

Do not close the device again without first inspecting and, if necessary, repairing the downstream electrical equipment.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

The device has tripped on electrical fault, the rotary handle has moved from the I(ON) position to the Trip position.

To reset after a trip on electrical fault:

Step Action Position

1 – Isolate the feed

inspecting the downstream electrical equipment.

2 – Look for the cause of the detected fault. Trip

3 – Inspect and, if necessary, repair the

downstream equipment, using proper safety precautions.

4 – Inspect the equipment in the event of a short-

circuit trip.

5 Reset the device by turning the rotary handle

counterclockwise from the Trip position to O(OFF).

Push-to-Trip Procedure

HAZARD OF NUISANCE TRIPPING

Device tests must only be done by qualified electrical personnel.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.

When testing the trip mechanism, take precautions against:

 Disrupting operations  Activating inappropriate alarms  Triggering unwanted actions

For example, tripping the device with the push-to-trip button can lead to inappropriate fault indications or corrective actions (such as switching to an alternate power source).

Follow these steps to test the trip mechanism:

Step Action Position

1 Close the device. I(ON)

CAUTION

2 Press the push-to-trip button.

The device trips.

3 Turn the rotary handle counterclockwise to the O(OFF)

position. The device is open.

4 Turn the rotary handle clockwise from the O(OFF)

position to the I(ON) position. The device is closed.
