CHAPTER 5: SETTINGS<br />

5.7.4 Undercurrent<br />

If turned On, the Mechanical Jam element function as follows. After a motor start, a Trip<br />

occurs once the magnitude of Ia, Ib, or Ic exceeds the Pickup Level × FLA for a period of<br />

time specified by the MECHANICAL JAM DELAY settings. This feature may be used to<br />

indicate a stall condition when running. Not only does it protect the motor by taking it offline<br />

quicker than the thermal model (overload curve), it may also prevent or limit damage<br />

to the driven equipment if motor starting torque persists on jammed or broken equipment.<br />

The MECHANICAL JAM PICKUP level should be set higher than motor loading during normal<br />

operation, but lower than the motor stall level. Normally the delay is set to the minimum<br />

time delay or set so that no nuisance trips occur due to momentary load fluctuations.<br />

A trip or alarm will occurs once the magnitude Ia, Ib, or Ic falls below the pickup level × FLA<br />

for the time specified by the UNDERCURRENT ALARM DELAY. The Undercurrent element is<br />

active only when the motor is running. It is blocked upon the initiation of a motor start for<br />

the time defined by the U/C BLOCK FROM START settings (e.g. this block may be used to<br />

allow pumps to build up head before the undercurrent element trips). A value of “0” means<br />

the feature is not blocked from start. If a value other than “0” is entered, the feature is<br />

disabled when the motor is stopped and also from the time a start is detected until the<br />

time entered expires. The UNDERCURRENT ALARM PICKUP level should be set lower than<br />

motor loading during normal operations.<br />
