Protection and Control The 469 is a digital motor protection system designed to protect and manage medium and large motors and driven equipment. It contains a full range of selectively enabled, self contained protection and control elements as detailed in the Functional Block Diagram and Features table.

Motor Thermal Model The primary protective function of the 469 is the thermal model with six key elements: • Overload Curves • Unbalance Biasing • Hot/Cold Safe Stall Ratio • Motor Cooling Time Constants • Start Inhibit and Emergency Restart • RTD Biasing

Overload Curves The curves can take one of three formats: standard, custom, or voltage dependent. For all curve styles, the 469 retains thermal memory in a thermal capacity used register which is updated every 0.1 second. The overload pickup determines where the running overload curve begins. The 469 standard overload curves are of standard shape with a multiplier value of 1 to 15. The voltage dependent overload curves are used in high inertia load applications, where motor acceleration time can actually exceed the safe stall time and motor thermal limits. During motor acceleration, the programmed thermal overload curve is dynamically adjusted with reference to the system voltage level. The selection of the overload curve type and the shape is based on motor thermal limit curves provided by motor vendor.
