DescriptionDescription
The PLR Series provides a cost effective means of preventing 3 phase motor startup during adverse voltage
conditions. Proper A-B-C sequence must occur in order for the PLR's output contacts to energize. In addition,
the relay will not energize when an undervoltage or phase loss condition is present. The PLR protects a motor
against undervoltage operation. The adjustment knob sets the undervoltage trip point.

OperationOperation
The output relay is energized and the LED glows when
all voltages are acceptable and the phase sequence
is correct. Undervoltage must be sensed for a
continuous dropout delay period before the relay deenergizes. Reset is automatic upon correction of the
fault condition. The output relay will not energize if a
fault condition is sensed as power is applied.

Turn the adjustment knob fully
counterclockwise and apply three-phase power.
The LED should be ON. Increase adjustment until
the LED goes OFF. Decrease adjustment until LED
glows again. If nuisance tripping occurs, decrease
the adjustment slightly.
NOTE:NOTE:
NOT E: When properly adjusted and operating in
NOTE:NOTE:
an average system, a voltage unbalance of 10% or
more is required for phase loss detection. When a
phase is lost while the motor is running, a voltage will
be induced into the open phase nearly equal in
magnitude to the normal phase-to-phase voltage.
This condition is known as regeneration. When
regenerated voltages are present, the voltage
unbalance during single phasing may not exceed
10% for some motors. The PLR Series may not
provide protection under this condition. For systems
that require superior phase loss protection, select
the PLMU Series.
