Operating Principle of Locked Rotor Protection on Schneider TeSys T LTMR27MFM

The LTMR27MFM implements locked rotor protection via real-time 3-phase current sampling + time threshold judgment, split into two independent configurable modes: Locked Rotor Protection during Start-up and Locked Rotor Protection in Running State.

1. Hardware Foundation

The LTMR27MFM integrates built-in 3-phase current transformers to continuously sample stator current at high speed. The internal MCU calculates in real time:

1. RMS value of three-phase currents
2. Ratio between instantaneous current and rated operating current
3. Duration of over-limit condition

No additional external sensors required; diagnosis relies purely on current signature analysis.

2. Two Locked Rotor Protection Modes (Independently configured in SoMove)

Mode 1: Locked Rotor Protection during Motor Start-up

Application scenario: Motor cannot accelerate due to mechanical jamming at startup

1. Judgment window: Controller identifies startup sequence (current surge, motor at standstill before acceleration)
2. Логика:

If start-up current ＞ Locked Rotor Start Threshold, and duration ≥ Locked Rotor Start Delay → Trip command triggered

3. Adjustable parameters (SoMove):

Locked rotor start current: typical range 1.5～8× motor rated current Ie (default 5Ie)

Locked rotor start delay: typical range 0.5～10 s

Цель: Prevent winding burnout caused by prolonged high current when motor is blocked on startup; distinguish permanent stall from normal short-duration starting inrush current.

Mode 2: Locked Rotor Protection during Steady-State Operation

Application scenario: Mechanical blockage occurs after motor reaches rated speed (belt jamming, pump impeller stuck, foreign object entrapment)

1. Judgment window: Controller confirms motor completes acceleration and enters stable operation
2. Логика:

If operating current ＞ Running Locked Rotor Threshold, and duration ≥ Running Locked Rotor Delay → Trip command triggered

3. Parameter characteristics:

Running locked rotor threshold is generally set lower than start-up threshold (typically 1.8～4 Ie), with shorter delay for rapid fault isolation.

3. Full Internal Decision Workflow
4. LTMR continuously samples three-phase currents and monitors current variation trends;
5. Automatically distinguishes three operating states: Standstill → Start-up → Steady Run;
6. Activates corresponding locked rotor threshold rules according to operating state;
7. Starts timing once current exceeds set threshold continuously;
8. When timing reaches configured delay:

✅ Internal protection sequence activated;

✅ Fault relay contact changes state;

✅ Disconnects contactor control circuit;

✅ Stores fault code BLR (Blocked Rotor) locally;

✅ Uploads locked rotor fault information to upper-level PLC via Modbus.

⚠️ Critical Distinction: Locked Rotor Protection ≠ Thermal Overload Protection

Защита от тепловой перегрузки: Based on motor thermal accumulation model, trips for sustained mild overload; slow response characteristic.

Защита от блокировки ротора: Fast acting definite-time protection against severe instantaneous overcurrent caused by mechanical stall, compensating the slow response of thermal protection.

4. Key Commissioning Guidelines
5. Motor rated current Ie must be entered accurately

All locked rotor thresholds are calculated as multiples of Ie. Incorrect setting leads to protection failure.

2. Tuning principles for delay

Фанаты & центробежные насосы: Longer natural startup time → extend start-up locked rotor delay to avoid nuisance tripping.

Конвейеры & дробилки: High risk of mechanical jamming → minimize running locked rotor delay for fast protection.

3. Protection coordination

Locked rotor protection can be enabled together with phase loss, unbalance, underload and PTC temperature protection for multi-layer safety.

4. Common setting pitfall

Do not set locked rotor threshold higher than the actual motor starting inrush current; otherwise protection will fail to respond during blocked startup.

5. Fault Identification After Trip

6. Функциональные ограничения

Locked rotor protection relies solely on stator current signature. Rare edge case limitation:

If mechanical jamming occurs with light load and current does not rise above threshold, stall cannot be detected. For such conditions, implement redundant monitoring via underload protection or vibration sensors.
