The TG220 is designed for applications where supervision of machine overload, underload or both is required with separate alarms:
Pumps: Dry-running/cavity protection for centrifugal pumps and control/prevention of over-pressure and by-pass flow for positive displacement pumps.
Fans and Filters: Supervision of blockage and detection of "not-running" conditions.
Conveyors and Belts: Jam detection and electronic shear-pin function, plus effective broken belt detection
Function
The drawing shows a typical AC-motor power curve (ex. Pump). The start timer Ts filters out from the regulation the large power surge generated on startup; when Ts expires, limits, hysteresis, Tr etc. becomes active.
When power exceeds the Max. Limit, Tr1 becomes active and when Tr1 expires a max. alarm is generated and relay 1 (C1, NC1) contact is switched open. If power drops back below the Max. Limit before an alarm is generated, Tr1 is cancelled. In this example, hysteresis is used to generate an auto reset once the power returns within the hysteresis band.
A Min. Limit alarm is generated in a similar manner, when power falls below the Min. Limit setting. Tr2 is the reaction timer for the Min. Limit. In case of a min alarm the relay 2 (C2, NC2) contact is switched open.
