Motor Control

Motor Insight™, the first offering in the Intelligent Power Control Solutions family, offers solid-state motor protection, control and advanced monitoring capabilities in a single device.  Featuring highly configurable line, load, and motor protection, Motor Insight provides an enhanced level of system protection, allowing users to configure the type and level of protection required for varied applications. It is designed to meet the demanding conditions of the petrochemical, mining, water and wastewater industries.

An overload and monitoring relay, Motor Insight features solid-state line, load, and motor protection with ground fault detection, power voltage and current monitoring and flexible communications. It allows adjustments to be made to overload settings without disconnecting power. In addition it provides an enhanced capacity to withstand surges. Motor Insight has an IP20 rated terminal block – minimizing shock hazards – a user interface with a bright LED display and easy to understand settings. With add-ons, including a remote display and multiple communications adapters, customers are able to choose among a spectrum of protocols, including DeviceNet, Modbus, Profibus, and EtherNet/IP, as well as I/O options.

Motor Insight has a robust design suited for applications with high line conditions and poor power quality, and meets the rigorous conditions in the petrochemical, water, wastewater and mining industries, among others. The overload and monitoring relay can be used in applications including: coal-bed methane well pumps, low-speed mixers, can motor pumps, mag-drive pumps, centrifugal pumps, submersible pumps and belt-driven loads.

Motor Insight is available in three operating voltage options, including 240, 480, and 600 volts, with a selectable trip class (5-30) and a broad FLA range of 1-540 amperes. It has two output relays: one form C single pole double throw (SPDT) fault relay and one form A single pole single throw (SPST) ground fault relay. The overload relay includes one external remote reset terminal as well as a trip status indicator. The unit is UL listed, CSA certified and meets NEMA and CE standards. In addition, the device is RoHS compliant.
