Application
The KPM13x is a digitally controlled guard/controller for use in a large
range of applications such as power guards, load controller, DC current
guards, DC voltage guards, etc.
As an analogue controller it can be
used to monitor a large range of physical parameters as flow, pressure,
temperature, length, weight and more.
An AC or DC auxiliary voltage is required for the unit. A green LED
indicates POWER on. Start of monitoring function is delayed when power
is switched on (default 2 secs delay). In this way false tripping during
power up is avoided.
The precision DIN96 moving coil meter reads the monitored parameter, and has low-reflection glass to ease reading at a distance.
The triple-zone status LEDs at a glance gives the clear safety message, typically LOW TRIP / NORMAL / HIGH TRIP etc.
The standard version has no analogue output. The optional
F-version has an isolated
analogue output signal proportional to meter deflection.
The units three C/O relay outputs may typically be configured for Low,
Low-Low or Negative Trip, High, High-High or Positive Trip and Trip
Status (R3).
The trip levels and trip delays are user settable on unit
rear to suit most applications. (See individual description for relay
operation)
Red relay trip lamps flash instantly (approx. 1 flash per second) when
the trip level is passed, the relay trips after elapsed delay. The lamp
changes state and the trip relay operates after the pre-set delay. If a
trip condition ends during the delay interval, the timer will
automatically reset.
As standard the unit is supplied for automatic reset. Manual reset (latching relays) is optional (All G-versions).
The unit meets EN 61010-1 Cat. III, Pollution degree 2 and the relevant environmental and EMC tests specified in EN 61326-2-4 to comply with the requirements of the major Classification Societies.

Power Controllers / Guards
KPM13M173E - KPM13M173F & KPM13M173GE - KPM13M173GF
Bi-Directional Active (kW) Power Guard
It is operating from mA output of a matching kW power transducer,
it monitors forward and reverse active load of generators. The unit has
one overload and two reverse power relay. The overload relay have
adjustable hysteresis and can be used to release and re-entry non
essential load.
KPM13M193E - KPM13M193F & KPM13M193GE - KPM13M193GF
Bi-Directional Reactive (kVAr) Power Guard
It is operating from mA output of a matching kVAr power transducer,
it monitors forward and reverse active load of generators. The unit has
one overload and two reverse power relay. The overload relay have
adjustable hysteresis and can be used to release and re-entry non
essential load.
KPM13M151E - KPM13M151F & KPM13M151GE - KPM13M151GF
AC Power Controller
It is operating on a output from the MCE105 generator controller or
from any low level DC signal i.e. 0-5V, 4-20mA etc. When used as a
"Total power" instrument it monitors the combined output of a generator
system. The relays can be used to automatically start and stop
generators in a simple system or for preferential tripping. As a
"Surplus power" instrument, it monitors the remaining available power
and therefore the relays can be used for load blocking of heavy loads.
KPM13M154E - KPM13M154F & KPM13M154GE - KPM13M154GF
AC Power Controller
It is operating on a output from balance lines from the MCE105 generator
controller or from any low level DC voltage signal i.e. 0-5V, 0-8V etc.
By monitoring the load balance lines of the MCE105, the instrument will
indicate the total percentage of power from the generators in use
regardless of the number of generators running. The trip relays can be
used to automatically start and stop generators based purely on
percentage of generated power. Scaled with 0-100%kW.
