Improve Safety and Reliability with Instant Arc-Flash Detection Brochure
Review Littelfuse Arc-Flash Relays and find examples of these relays being used to protect critical equipment.
Residential well pumps are susceptible to damage due to fluctuations in water supply. When groundwater is low, submersible pumps are at risk of dead head, rapid-cycle, and overvoltage/overcurrent conditions. Littelfuse PumpSaver constantly monitors the pump and prevents damage.
One customer completely trusts Littelfuse MotorSaver® after experiencing a phase-loss situation on a 200 hp motor. The customer had upgraded and installed a 201A-AU protection relay for the motor. The Littelfuse relay saved them from replacing their $30,000 motor and kept their de-rag operation from going offline and instantly backing up the entire treatment plant and spilling waste in multiple locations.
The city of Roswell, GA wanted to automate the process of collecting data from 250hp pump motors at their water wells. Previously, workers went to pump station, opened electrical cabinet, and manually tested equipment to log voltage and current measurements.
As a solution, the city installed MP8000 Overload Relays. The Relay's Bluetooth wireless connection lets workers monitor relay from their smart phone, while MP8000 app automatically collects time-stamped data. Remote monitoring increases safety by not opening cabinet and exposing workers to arc-flash hazard. The MP8000's digital logs increases data accuracy while saving time spent having to transcribe handwritten logs.
A power company used voltage monitors used on irrigation pivots to protect from voltage variances. They had component failure with competitive voltage monitors in their load controllers.
The solution? The utility implemented the Littelfuse 355 Voltage Monitor to manage its heavy-duty applications. Today, the Littelfuse 355 Voltage Monitor continues to pay dividends in the form of protection and simple user-friendly diagnostics for the utility.
