Protective Devices
PDIM Leackage Current Monitor
• Shape compatible with and suitable for standard busbar connection to
other devices of the P-series
• Twin-purpose terminal (lift/open-mouthed) above and below
• Busbar positioning optionally above or below
• Free terminal space despite installed busbar
• Power supply via ‘OR’ disjunction of the 4 conductors
• Electronic functioning (line-voltage independent)
• The device works irrespective of the position of installation
• Mains connection at either side
• The 4-pole device can also be used for 3-pole connection.
For this purpose use terminals 1-2, 3-4, and 5-6.
• The 4-pole device can also be used for 2-pole connection.
For this purpose use terminals 5-6 and N-N.
• 2 potential-free relays (make contact, in parallel with the yellow and red
LED) (up to 10 A / 230 V~)
Functioning
• The green LED becomes active at 0-30% of the preset I
Δn.
The yellow LED becomes active at 30-50% of the preset I
Δn.
The red LED becomes active at >50% of the preset I
Δn.
• The yellow LED turns off again when the identified residual current is <30%
of the preset I
Δn
.
• The red LED stays on even if the identified residual current is <50% of the
preset I
Δn
.
• The red LED will only turn off after pressing the reset button.
• Only one LED will be active at a time.
• An output relay will always be switched simultaneously with the yellow or
red LED
• Depending on the setting of the type of RCD (instantaneous, G, S), the
residual current needs to flow a sufficiently long time before an action is
triggered.
Test function
• The rotary coding switch for the RCD switch function is to be set to “TEST”.
The device then alternately simulates residual currents of 30% and 50% of
the I
Δn
. In this process, the yellow and red LED flash alternately (1 Hz), both
output relays remain permanently energised.
