Schneider RM17TA00 3-Phase Multifunction Supply Monitoring Relay

(位相シーケンス / 欠相 / 3-Phase Voltage Unbalance)

シリーズ: Zelio Control / Harmony RM17T Series, DIN rail mounted 3-phase monitoring relay, commonly known as phase sequence protector.

✅ Monitoring Functions

Phase sequence detection (L1-L2-L3): Instant trip upon reverse phase sequence

Phase loss detection: Instant trip if any phase is lost (including phase loss with regenerated voltage from motors)

3-phase voltage asymmetry (アンバランス): Adjustable threshold from 5% に 15% of Un, with time-delayed tripping

Logic rule: 位相反転 / phase loss → instantaneous trip; voltage unbalance → delayed trip.

🧮 RM17T Series Selection Comparison (Key for Model Selection)

RM17TT00: Phase sequence + 位相損失 (NO unbalance monitoring)

RM17TA00 (現行モデル): Phase sequence + 位相損失 + 3-phase voltage asymmetry

RM17TU00: Phase sequence + 位相損失 + 不足電圧

RM17TE00: Phase sequence + 位相損失 + asymmetry + 過電圧 + 不足電圧 (full-function model)

🛠️ Typical Application Scenarios

エレベーター, hoisting & conveying equipment, エアコンプレッサー, ウォーターポンプ, refrigeration units, 包装機械; prevents motor reverse rotation, burnout from phase loss, and overheating caused by three-phase unbalance.

🔌 Wiring Guidelines

1. Connect L1/L2/L3 directly to the monitored three-phase supply (self-powered, no separate auxiliary supply required).
2. 端子 15/16/18 form one changeover contact: 15-16 = normally closed; 15-18 = normally open.
3. Panel setting: First select rated voltage (208/220/380/400/415/480V), then set unbalance threshold and fault delay time.
4. Fault recovery: Automatic reset once power returns to normal; no manual reset button.

⚠️ Troubleshooting

Relay does not energize after power-up: Check phase sequence, 位相損失, and voltage range dip switch setting.

Frequent tripping during normal operation: Increase unbalance percentage threshold, extend time delay, and investigate single-phase load current imbalance.

No LED illumination: Three-phase input voltage exceeds the 183~528V operating range.

Core Positioning of RM17TA00

It provides phase sequence + 位相損失 + three-phase voltage unbalance protection, mainly for three-phase asynchronous motors. It prevents reverse rotation, motor burnout from phase loss, and overheating caused by long-term voltage imbalance. セルフパワー, compact 1-module DIN rail design, ideal for compact control cabinets and retrofitting projects where no PLC signal collection is needed.

1. 業界 & Equipment Applications
2. 巻き上げ & 運ぶ (主な用途)

Overhead cranes, electric hoists, ベルトコンベア, stackers, エレベーター; prevents motor reverse rotation after phase reconnection and overheating damage to gearboxes and motors due to long-term unbalance.

2. エレベーター & Lifting Platforms

Freight elevators, simple lifting platforms, parking lift power circuits; wrong phase sequence causes reverse car movement; voltage unbalance leads to excessive temperature rise of traction motors.

3. ウォーターポンプ & Pumping Stations

High-power centrifugal pumps, submersible sewage pumps, pre-power monitoring before variable-frequency drives; unbalance is frequently caused by mixed single-phase loads in water supply, sewage treatment and chiller pump systems.

4. エアコンプレッサー & HVAC Refrigeration Units

スクリューエアコンプレッサー, 冷水機, air-source heat pumps, 冷凍コンプレッサー; compressors are highly sensitive to three-phase unbalance, which easily burns out motor windings.

5. 包装, 繊維 & Woodworking Automation

Packaging lines, 繊維機械, 押出機, injection molding auxiliary equipment; frequent power maintenance and phase swapping require phase sequence verification before power-on.

6. ファン負荷

排気ファン, induced draft fans, drying fans; large inertia fans produce regenerated voltage after phase loss; this model supports phase loss detection under regenerated voltage conditions.

7. Control Panels & OEM Equipment Matching

380V three-phase control cabinets, non-standard automation OEM factory-fitted protection; old equipment retrofits, hard-contact interlock without adding PLC analog modules.

1. Selection Boundary: 適切な / 不適切なシナリオ

✅ おすすめ:

Three-phase motor loads with risks of voltage asymmetry overheating (core advantage over RM17TT00)

Supply voltage AC 208~480V, 50/60Hz

限られたキャビネットスペース, のみ 1 module width available

Hard-contact interlock directly wired into main contactor coil circuit

❌ 推奨されません:

過電圧 + undervoltage monitoring required → choose RM17TE00

Only undervoltage protection without unbalance → choose RM17TU00

Dual independent alarm contacts required → upgrade to RM22TA33 (2C/O)

Motors behind variable-frequency drives: VFDs already have built-in phase loss & アンバランス保護; extra relay is generally unnecessary.

Ⅲ. Typical Control Logic

Contact wired in series with the main contactor coil circuit:

Normal power supply → relay energizes and closes, contactor power permitted;

位相反転 / 位相損失 / voltage unbalance detected → relay de-energizes and opens, cutting off main power, with dry contacts available for PLC or audible-visual alarm signals.
