Data display: Cyclically display the average value of three-phase current and the real-time current of A/B/C phases, with an error of <±2%.

III. Cenários de aplicação e sugestões de seleção

1. Aplicações Típicas

Industrial field: Protection of three-phase asynchronous motors such as fans, bombas de água, and cranes, especially suitable for loads with frequent starting (such as conveyor belts).

Commercial buildings: Energy saving and protection of air conditioning compressors and elevator motors, which can be connected to the building automation system through communication interfaces.

Alternative solution: Replace the traditional thermal relay + contactor combination, reducing cabinet space and improving protection accuracy.

2. Pontos de seleção

Power matching: Select the corresponding model according to the rated current of the motor. CTU-1D32D is suitable for 3~15kW (400V) motors to avoid reduced protection sensitivity due to over-selection.

Environmental adaptability: A heat dissipation module is required for high-temperature environments (>50℃), and a cabinet with IP54 protection level is recommended for high-humidity environments.

Certification requirements: For export to the North American market, it is necessary to confirm whether it has passed UL certification (you can contact Chint customer service for the latest certification information).

1. Manutenção e solução de problemas
2. Manutenção Diária

– Clean the housing and terminal blocks quarterly, and check whether the terminals are loose.

– Use a multimeter to detect whether the voltage of the control circuit is stable (AC220V±10%) to avoid misoperation caused by voltage fluctuations.

2. Common Fault Troubleshooting

False tripping: Check if the load is overloaded for a short time, or adjust the inverse time curve to extend the action time.

No display: Confirm whether the control power supply is normal, and check the voltage of A1/A2 terminals and whether the fuse is blown.

Communication interruption: Check if the RS485 wiring is correct and whether the baud rate setting is consistent with the upper computer.
