: “575 V” MOTOR NAMEPLATE VOLTAGE The 469 Motor Management Relay was designed with the ability to display primary system values. Current and voltage measurements are performed at secondary levels, which the relay transforms to primary values using CT and VT ratios, system voltage, as well as the nominal secondary values.
Setpoints heading. Program the S3 setpoints as indicated. Some of the functions assigned to the digital inputs of the 469 Motor Management Relay are pre-defined functions, which can be selected from a list. There are four user-defined functions, called General Switch A to D, associated to the assignable inputs.

In our example, these characteristics are specified under Motor Protection heading. GE Multilin 1–26 http://www.GEindustrial.com/multilin...
START INHIBIT BLOCK : “25%” TC USED MARGIN With these settings, the 469 relay prevents motor starting if there is insufficient thermal capacity for a successful motor start. Refer to Start Inhibit on page 5–55 for additional information. There is not information available to set Starts/Hour, Time Between Starts, or the Restart Block features.
The function will be active only if there is voltage in the line feeding the motor, to avoid nuisance trips due to the lack of voltage. The 469 will consider the bus energized only if the measured voltage is greater than 20% of nominal voltage.
The 469 Motor Management Relay is a microprocessor based relay designed for the protection and management of medium and large horsepower motors and driven equipment. The 469 is equipped with six (6) output relays for trips, alarms, and start blocks. Motor protection, fault diagnostics, power metering, and RTU functions are integrated into one economical drawout package.
Page 38
Ground faults or earth leakage as low as 0.25 A may be detected using the GE Multilin 50:0.025 Ground CT. CT inputs for phase differential protection are also provided. The 12 RTD inputs provided may be individually field programmed for different RTD types.
256 time and date stamped events including the pre-trip data. Each time a trip occurs, the 469 stores a trace of 8 cycles pre-trip and 8 cycles post-trip for all measured AC quantities. Trip counters record the number of occurrences of each type of trip.

Any 469 can be installed in any 469 case, except for custom manufactured units that are clearly identified as such on both case and unit, and are equipped with an index pin keying mechanism to prevent incorrect pairings.
FIGURE 3–2: Seal on Drawout Unit Product Identification Each 469 unit and case are equipped with a permanent label. This label is installed on the left side (when facing the front of the relay) of both unit and case. The case label details which units can be installed.
FIGURE 3–4: Single 469 Cutout Panel FIGURE 3–5: Double 469 Cutout Panel After the mounting hole in the panel has been prepared, slide the 469 case into the panel from the front. Applying firm pressure on the front to ensure the front bezel fits snugly against the front of the panel, bend out the pair of retaining tabs (to a horizontal position) from each side of the case as shown below.
Once the handle is released from the locking mechanism, the unit can freely slide out of the case when pulled by the handle. It may sometimes be necessary to adjust the handle position slightly to free the unit. FIGURE 3–9: Slide Unit out of Case GE Multilin 3–4 http://www.GEindustrial.com/multilin...
The unit does not require cleaning. CAUTION Ethernet Connection If using the 469 with the Ethernet 10Base-T option, ensure that the network cable is disconnected from the rear RJ45 connector before removing the unit from the case. This prevents any damage to the connector.
Mechanical Installation Motor Management Relay DeviceNet Connection If using the 469 DeviceNet option, ensure that the network cable is disconnected from the rear terminal block before removing the unit out of the case to prevent any damage to the connector.
CT circuit is shorted by automatic mechanisms on the 469 case. The phase CTs should be chosen so the FLA is no less than 50% of the rated phase CT primary. Ideally, the phase CT primary should be chosen such that the FLA is 100% of the phase CT primary or slightly less, never more.
Page 57
FIGURE 3–14: Residual Ground CT Connection The 469 measures up to 5 A secondary current if the 1 A / 5 A tap is used. Since the conversion range is relatively small, the 1 A or 5 A option is field programmable.

B input and the 469 neutral terminal, must be installed for open delta VTs. Polarity of the VTs is critical for correct power measurement and voltage phase reversal operation.
CAUTION Analog Inputs The 469 provides terminals for four 0 to 1mA, 0 to 20mA, or 4 to 20mA current input signals (field programmable). This current signal can be used to monitor external quantities such as vibration, pressure, or flow. The four inputs share one common return.
FIGURE 3–21: Loop Powered Transducer Connection Analog Outputs The 469 provides 4 analog output channels which may be ordered to provide a full- scale range of either 0 to 1 mA (into a maximum 10 kΩ impedance) or 4 to 20 mA (into a maximum 1200 Ω...

±36 V with respect to the 469 safety ground. b) Reduced RTD Lead Number Application The 469 requires three leads to be brought back from each RTD: Hot, Return and Compensation. This can be quite expensive. It is however possible to reduce the number of leads required to 3 for the first RTD and 1 for each successive RTD.
Page 65
There will be an error in temperature readings due to lead and connection resis- tances. This technique is NOT recommended for 10 Ω Copper RTDs. If the RTD Return lead to the 469 or any of the jumpers break, all RTDs from the point of the break will read open.
6 SERVICE relay is normally energized and de-energizes when called upon to operate. It also de-energizes when 469 control power is lost and will be in its operated state. All other relays, being non-failsafe, will normally be de-energized and energize when called upon to operate.
FIGURE 3–26: Alternate Wiring for Contactors Drawout Indicator The Drawout Indicator is simply a jumper from terminals E12 to F12. When the 469 is withdrawn from the case, terminals E12 and F12 are open. This may be useful for differentiating between loss of control power as indicated by the 6 SERVICE relay and withdrawal of the unit.
It may be required to test a complete motor starter for dielectric strength (“flash” or “hipot”) with the 469 installed. The 469 is rated for 2000 V DC isolation between relay contacts, CT inputs, VT inputs, trip coil supervision, and the safety ground terminal G12.

MESSAGE START TIMER: 200 s The 469 can control the transition of a reduced voltage starter from reduced to full voltage. That transition may be based on “Current Only”, “Current and Timer”, or “Current or Timer” (whichever comes first). When the 469 measures the transition of no motor current to some value of motor current, a 'Start' is assumed to be occurring (typically current will rise quickly to a value in excess of FLA, e.g.

NOTE contactor and the full voltage contactor. Once transition is initiated, the 469 assumes the motor is still running for at least 2 seconds. This prevents the 469 from recognizing an additional start if motor current goes to zero during an open transition.

The motor manufacturer should provide a safe stall time or thermal limit curves for any motor they sell. To program the 469 for maximum protection, it is necessary to ask for these items when the motor is out for bid. These thermal limits are intended to be used as guidelines and their definition is not always precise.
MESSAGE ALARM EVENTS: Off The primary protective function of the 469 is the thermal model. It consists of five key elements: the overload curve and overload pickup level, the unbalance biasing of the motor current while the motor is running, the motor cooling time constants, and the biasing of the thermal model based on Hot/Cold motor information and measured stator temperature.
Page 138
The 469 overload curve can take one of three formats: Standard, Custom Curve, or Voltage Dependent. Regardless of the selected curve style, thermal memory is...
If the motor starting times are well within the safe stall times, it is recommended that the 469 Standard Overload Curve be used. The standard overload curves are a series of 15 curves with a common curve shape based on typical motor thermal limit curves (see the figure and table below).

The distinct parts of the thermal limit curves now become more critical. For these conditions, it is recommended that the 469 custom curve thermal model be used. The custom overload curve feature allows the user to program their own curve by entering trip times for 30 pre-determined current levels.

The 469 takes the information provided and create protection curves for any voltage between the minimum and 100%. For values above the voltage in question, the 469 extrapolates the safe stall protection curve to 110% voltage. This current level is calculated by taking the locked rotor current at 100% voltage and multiplying by 1.10.
Page 150
Motor Management Relay The following two figures illustrate the resultant overload protection curves for 80% and 100% line voltage, respectively. For voltages in between, the 469 will shift the acceleration curve linearly and constantly based on measured line voltage during a motor start.

Motor Management Relay h) RTD Bias The 469 thermal replica operates as a complete and independent model. However, the thermal overload curves are based solely on measured current, assuming normal 40°C ambient and normal motor cooling. If the ambient temperature is unusually high, or motor cooling is blocked, the motor temperature will increase.
This allows the motor to start without nuisance tripping. The overreach filter removes the DC component from the asymmetrical current present at the moment of fault. This eliminates overreach; however, the response time slows slightly (10 to 15 ms) but remains within specification. GE Multilin 5–49 http://www.GEindustrial.com/multilin...

Range: 1 to 60 s in steps of 1 CURRENT UNBALANCE MESSAGE TRIP DELAY: 1 s For the 469 relay, unbalance is defined as the ratio of negative-sequence to positive-sequence current, I , if the motor is operating at a load (I ) greater than FLA.
Various situations (e.g. contactor bounce) may cause transient ground currents during motor starting that may exceed the Ground Fault pickup levels for a very short period of time. The Ground Fault time delays are adjustable in 10 ms GE Multilin 5–53 http://www.GEindustrial.com/multilin...
This momentary DC component will cause each of the phase CTs to react differently and the net current into the ground input of the 469 will not be negligible. A 20 ms block of the ground fault elements when the motor starts enables the 469 to ride through this momentary ground current signal.
Some motor soft-starters allow current to ramp up slowly while others limit current to less than FLA throughout the start. Since the 469 is a generic motor relay, it cannot differentiate between a motor with a slow ramp up time and one that has completed a start and gone into overload.
• Max. Starts/Hour Permissible: A motor start is assumed to be occurring when the 469 measures the transition of no motor current to some value of motor current. At this point, one of the Starts/Hour timers is loaded with 60 minutes.
The motor has now become a generator and applying supply voltage out of phase may result in catastrophic failure. The Restart Block feature is strictly a timer. The 469 does not sense rotor rotation. NOTE...

On the other hand, if undervoltage trip is enabled, and the UNDERVOLTAGE TRIP is set for “1-Phase”, a trip will occur once the magnitude of either Vab, Vbc, or MODE Vca falls below the pickup level while running or starting for a period of time GE Multilin 5–64 http://www.GEindustrial.com/multilin...

Setpoint messages are being viewed and there are no trips, alarms, or blocks, the Message LED (indicator) will be on solid. From any point in the message structure, pressing the NEXT key will cause the 469 to revert back to the normal default messages. When normal default messages are being displayed, pressing NEXT displays the next default message immediately.
Flash messages are warning, error, or general information messages that are temporarily displayed in response to certain key presses. These messages are intended to assist with navigation of the 469 messages by explaining what has happened or by prompting the user to perform certain actions.

• ROUNDED SETPOINT HAS BEEN STORED: A setpoint value entered with the numeric keypad may be between valid setpoint values. The 469 detects this condition and stores a value that has been rounded to the nearest valid setpoint value. To find the valid range and step for a given setpoint, simply press HELP while the setpoint is being displayed.

Since the 469 is packaged in a drawout case, a demo case (metal carry case in which an 469 may be mounted) may be useful for creating a portable test set. Testing of the relay during commissioning using a primary injection test set will ensure that CTs and wiring are correct and complete.
Motor Management Relay Hardware Functional Testing Phase Current The 469 specification for phase current accuracy is ±0.5% of 2 × CT when the injected current is less than 2 × CT. Perform the steps below to verify accuracy. Accuracy Test Alter the following setpoint: “1000 A”...
Measured values should be ±0.125 A. Inject the values shown in the table below either as primary values into a GE Multilin 50:0.025 Core Balance CT or as sec- ondary values that simulate the core balance CT. Verify accuracy of the mea- sured values.
TRIP COIL SUPERVISION No Coil Coil Analog Inputs and The 469 specification for analog input and analog output accuracy is ±1% of full scale. Perform the steps below to verify accuracy. Verify the Analog Input +24 V DC Outputs with a voltmeter.

5 hours. • Since the rotor cools faster when the motor is running, a reasonable setting for the running cool time constant might be half the stopped cool time constant or 150 minutes. GE Multilin 8–3 http://www.GEindustrial.com/multilin...
Motor Management Relay Current Transformers Ground Fault CTs for CTs that are specially designed to match the ground fault input of GE Multilin motor protection relays should be used to ensure correct performance. These CTs have a 50:0.025 A CT 50:0.025A (2000:1 ratio) and can sense low leakage currents over the relay setting...
For low resistance or solidly grounded systems, a 5 A secondary CT should be used. 5 A Secondary CT Two sizes are available with 5½” or 13” × 16” windows. Various Primary amp CTs can be chosen (50 to 250). GCT5 GCT16 DIMENSIONS DIMENSIONS 808709A1.CDR GE Multilin 8–5 http://www.GEindustrial.com/multilin...
Current transformers in most common ratios from 50:5 to 1000:5 are available for use as phase current inputs with motor protection relays. These come with mounting hardware and are also available with 1 A secondaries. Voltage class: 600 V BIL 10 kV. 808712A1.CDR GE Multilin 8–6 http://www.GEindustrial.com/multilin...
