DESCRIPTION 1. DESCRIPTION The DBT is a digital trip coil supervision relay. This supervision includes: • Integrity of coils (monitoring continuously their resistance). In case coils are in a good condition, the output COIL OK will be activated. • Control voltage (supervision of low voltage). If voltage is correct, the output BREAKER VOLTAGE OK will be activated.

APPLICATION 2. APPLICATION The DBT has been designed to monitor the biggest possible number of elements in the tripping and closing circuits of the breaker. The relay checks voltages, coil resistance and the integrity of the auxiliary contacts 52/a and 52/b, since they are also part of the trip and close circuits of the breaker.
APPLICATION 2.4 RECOMMENDED SETTINGS This section is only included for customer information, given the importance of the right choice of settings to ensure good protection and a range of possible applications. Resistance Because the coil is made of copper its resistance varies considerably with temperature. The temperature coefficient of copper is approximately 0.43%/ºC (see UNE 20-003 “Annealed and industrial copper for electrical applications”).

OPERATING PRINCIPLES 4. OPERATING PRINCIPLES Figure 7 (Block diagram) shows the basic operation of the DBT (the most common case of a 3-phase version). Seven units of measurement can be seen: 1. Voltage measurement for undervoltage function of breaker power supply. 2.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES Internal setting In the 3 coils DBT model, there is an internal setting which can be made by moving a jumper in the printed circuit, that allows to configure all the outputs as general ones (BREAKER CIRCUIT OK). Any failure (undervoltage or resistance) will mean that all outputs will be deactivated.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS 5. TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS 5.1 TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS • AUXILIARY SUPPLY A ripple factor is allowed provided that the instantaneous voltage does not exceed the indicated upper and lower limits. For example, on the 110-125 V model the voltage at any given time should never drop below 88 V nor go above 150 V.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS • WEIGHTS Net: 3 kg Packed: 4 kg • WATERTIGHTNESS Index: IP51 • DIMENSIONS Width: 483 mm (19” rack) Depth: 200 mm Height: 45 mm (1 height unit) • INSULATION As per IEC 255-5. Between terminal and case: 2000 V AC for 1 minute at industrial frequency.

Shock test As per IEC 255-21-2, class II. The DBT relay complies with these Standards, which includes the GE Standard on the level of insulation and electromagnetic compatibility required by CE Directive 89/336 for CE marking, according to standardised European regulations.
RELAY SETTINGS 6. RELAY SETTINGS The settings are located on the relay’s nameplate in the form of dip switches. Their meanings are printed, indicating ranges in addition to the functions. In the DBT3000 there is an internal setting. This setting enables individual or general selection of the output relays.
RELAY SETTINGS 6.2 ‘ENABLE’ SWITCH This switch has two positions: - Left: relay disabled, READY LED will go red. - Right: enabled relay, the READY LED goes green, provided none of the external disabling inputs are active. At the back of the relay there are digital disabling inputs on terminals C1-D1, C2-D2, C3-D3 and C4-D4 (3- phase model) and C1-D1 for the single-phase model (see Figure 6: Rear terminal plate).
RELAY SETTINGS 6.5 COIL RESISTANCE SETTING This is the coil failure circuit threshold. It is a block of 4 dip switches. The minimum value is 75 Ω, the maximum 300 Ω and the step 15 Ω. For example, if a setting of 150 Ω is required, put dip switches 1 and 3 in the UP position. You then have: 75 + 15 + 60 = 150.

RECEPTION TESTS 7. RECEPTION TESTS 7.1 VISUAL INSPECTION Check that the information on the nameplate coincides with the details of the order. A check should also be made to ensure that the relay is not scratched or has received impacts, and that there are no loose parts as a result of bad handling in transit.
RECEPTION TESTS 7.3 TRIP LEVEL TEST Connect the relay as indicated in the external connections diagram (Figs. 2 & 3), using a DC power supply (110/125 or 220/250 V) for the auxiliary voltage (terminals B9-B10), according to the model. Variations of ±20% are admitted (- 20% of the minimum and +20% of the maximum).
RECEPTION TESTS 7.4 TIME DELAY TEST The check the tripping time the loss of continuity of the coil connected to terminals B2 and B3 will be simulated. Insert a dual-circuit switch. One of the circuits CLOCK which is normally closed will short-circuit terminals B2 and B3, simulating that the coil is correct.
RECEPTION TESTS 7.5 RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT TEST To carry out this test, which is done on the measuring unit of coil 1, disconnect terminal B4 and leave it unconnected (simulating an open circuit). Place a resistor (simulating the breaker coil) between terminals B2 and B3. This resistance should give the readings indicated in the table below.
