1.1 Safety Instructions
All personnel involved in installation, commissioning,
operation, maintenance or repair of the equipment must
be suitably qualied and
strictly observe these operating instructions.
Improper operation or misuse can lead to
serious or fatal injury,
damage to the equipment and property of the operator and
a reduction in the efciency of the equipment.
Safety instructions in this manual are presented in three diffe-
rent forms to emphasize important information.
1.2 Appropriate use
In conjunction with a temperature sensor the EPT202 device
fromthe MTeC device series indicates the oil and winding
temperature of oil-insulated transformers, reactors or on-load
tap-changers. The device can be used to control individual
cooling stages as a function of load and temperature and to
switch off the whole transformer in the event of an emergency.
Before commissioning the device be sure to read and observe
the application limit values specied on the nameplate and in
the operating instructions.
1.3 Notes on the Operation of the Device
User adherence to national accident prevention regulations is
mandatory.
It is also pointed out that work on active ports (i.e., parts
which are hazardous to touch) is only permitted when these
parts are potential free or are protected against direct touch.

WARNING
This information indicates particular danger to life and
health. Disregarding such warnings can lead to serious or
fatal injury.
CAUTION
This information indicates particular danger to the equip-
ment or other property of the operator, risk of serious or
fatal injury.
NOTE
These notes provide important information on a certain
topic.
National regulations pertaining to electrical installation must
be observed. To ensure correct operation, it is essential to
connect the protective conductor (PE).
1.4 Conguration
The device is available in four versions:
- As a compact device in an aluminumhousing for mounting on a
mounting rail according to EN 60 715 TH 35-7.5 and TH 35-15
- As a 19 slide-in unit (3U, 42HP, depth 176 mm) for installation
in a 19 cabinet system
- As a device for panel mounting with a 236 x 142 mmpanel
cut-out
- As a 19 slide-in unit (3U, 84HP, depth 176 mm) for installation
in a 19 cabinet system.
Plug connectors according to DIN 41 612 are used for the elec-
trical connection.
NOTE
When using the additional modules EPT202OL, EPT202CT
or EPT202OL/CT, please refer to the operating instructions
BA 2078.
CAUTION
Make sure that all power supplies leading to the digital
thermometer are disconnected at the switchgear cubicle
before doing impulse voltage testing or any other kind of
applied voltage testing to the transformer.
1.5 Features of the basic unit
The basic unit is used to visualise 1 oil temperature and 1
winding temperature of an oil-insulated transformer or similar
device on an LCD display. To this end a temperature sensor
with Pt100 or 4...20mA output must be connected to the
device for measuring the top oil temperature in the transfor-
mer. The minimumand maximumvalues of the oil and winding
temperature and the maximumvalue of the load current are
recorded and can be retrieved later. Two analog outputs with
freely programmable output signals and an RS485 interface
are available for remote display of the temperature values.
Through the data logging function the temperature-specic
data are stored in the device at regular intervals and can be
retrieved at any time. The thermal image of the transformer is
simulated according to IEC 60076-7 or ANSI IEEE Std. C 57.91.
To this end the CT current reecting the transformer load must
be connected to the device. Transformer- and cooling stage-
specic parametering can be carried out via the keys on the
front or optionally available visualization software. The visua-
lization software contains an Easy-Set function for paramete-
6 BA 2076/04 /01
1 General
Another special feature is calculation of life-cycle consumption
according to IEC or ANSI standard.
A temperature sensor for logging the ambient temperature
can be connected via the 4-20 mA sensor input. In this case a
Pt100 sensor must be used for detecting the top oil tempera-
ture.
ring according to IEC standard. A total of 6 relays can be used
for controlling cooling stages or issuing messages such as oil
temperature warning or trip. Additional functions are available
for the cooling stage contacts:
Alternating fan operation ensures that the units for similar
cooling stages (e.g. fans for ONAF-1 and ONAF-2) are used
uniformly over time.
The periodic cooling stage activation function can be used
to briey switch on cooling units that only operate occasio-
nally.
The load-dependent cooling stage activation function acti-
vates the cooling stages in the event of a rapid load increase.
This is useful for machine transformers with high loads or
in the event of failure of a transformer operating in parallel
mode.
The switching point, the hysteresis and the delay time of the
individual relays are freely adjustable. The relay contacts can
be activated and deactivated via the oil or winding tempera-
ture.

4 Electrical connection
Connect the EPT202 according to the device-specic wiring
diagrams shown in the Annex (see 9.5-9.7). The individual
connections are explained in more detail below.
4.1 Device earthing
To create safe equipotential bonding between the casing and
electronic components and to discharge fault currents that
may be generated through EMC inuences the device should
be earthed via the designed ground screw on the side. The
housing potential must be equal to the potential of the
grounding terminal (terminal 21 in the rail mounting version
or terminal 43 in the 19 version).

WARNING
Ensure that the EPT202 is connected and earthed with due
care. Danger to life! Do not switch on the supply voltage
before the electrical connection was completed.
NOTE
The EPT202 was developed in compliance with the relevant
EMC standards. The following instructions must be followed
to ensure that the EMC characteristics are maintained:
Follow the separate installation instructions for the device
Ensure that the EPT202 is earthed properly via the earth
terminal.
Be sure to use only shielded cables for the data and signal
link between the EPT202 and other equipment. Earth the
shield at the designed terminals.
Fig. 5
Rail mounting
Fig. 6
19-/panel mounting
4.2 Supply voltage
The EPT202 has a wide-range power supply unit for supply
voltages between 80-265 VAC, 40-400 Hz or 80-353 VDC.
Optionally a power supply unit for 20-72 VDC is available.
Connect the supply voltage at the corresponding terminals.
19 panel mounting
4.3 Sensor inputs
A temperature sensor for determining the top oil temperature
must be connected to the EPT202. A Pt100 sensor or a sensor
with 4-20 mA output can be connected. If the ambient tempe-
rature is to be logged in addition to the top oil temperature, a
Pt100 sensor should be used for the top oil temperature and a
4-20 mA sensor for the ambient temperature.
4.3.1 3-wire Pt100 signal (RTD)
The Pt100 sensor should be connected in 3-wire mode (2 mea-
suring lines and 1 compensating line). The 3 stranded wires
should be identical (same length and cross-section). Otherwise
deviations may occur through incorrect compensation of the
line resistances. To connect a sensor in 2-wire mode the termi-
nal for the compensating line (terminal 9 for the mounting rail
version, terminal 12 for 19/panel mounting) should be short-
circuited with the measuring line. Measurement errors arising
fromlack of line resistance compensation can be corrected
with the zero point correction function.

Rail mounting 19/panel mounting
4.3.2 Input I
1
for passive
4 to 20mA sensor
Input I
1
has an internal voltage source
for supplying a passive 4-20 mA sensor
via the measuring lines (e.g. poin-
ter thermometer MT-ST160SK/TT or
temperature sensor Kombi/TT). Please
ensure that the connected sensor sup-
ports this voltage supply method. The
voltage source supplies 24 VDC 15%.
4.3.3 Input I
2
for aktive
4 to 20mA sensor
An active 4-20 mA sensor (e.g. tempe-
rature sensor TT-PWM60) with external
supply can be connected to input I
2
.
4.4 CT input (secondary)
The CT input is designed for a rated current (at rated transfor-
mer load) of 0.5 A - 5 A. Please ensure that this matches the
characteristic data of the CT transformer.
The maximuminput current is 8 A. While higher value will not
destroy the input, the value will no longer be detected.

WARNING
Caution: high voltagewith open transformer terminals
and connected secondary current transformer (CT).
The CT transformer must be earthed single-sided.
4.5 Analog outputs
The EPT202 has analog outputs for the oil temperature and the
winding temperature for remote data transmission to control
room, for example. Please specify the measuring ranges of
the analog outputs with your order. The standard ranges are
-20 - +140C for the oil temperature and 0 - +160C for the
winding temperature. The output signals of the analog outputs
are freely parameterizable within the following ranges:
DC voltage signal: 0 - 1.0 V to 0 - 10.0 V
DC signal: 0 - 1.0mA to 0 - 20.0mA
In addition 3 standard signals (with fault signal) are available:
4 - 20 mA (fault signal <3.6 mA)
4 - 20 mA (fault signal >22 mA)
0 - 20 mA (fault signal >22 mA)
The fault signal is connected to the analog outputs if the oil
temperature sensor is detected as faulty as a result of a cable
break or a short circuit. The connected display will show a mini-
mum(3.6 mA) or maximum(22 mA) value to indicate the fault.
This function is not available for the freely parameterizable
outputs, where the output is 0 mA or 0 V.
If an analog output is not used it must be looped through with
a short-circuiting jumper. Otherwise an open analog output
will be detected in the device and reported as a fault. If the
analog output is operated as a DC voltage signal this type of
fault detection is not possible.
If the analog outputs are parameterized as DC voltage outputs,
a maximumburden resistance (total resistance of the lines and
connected devices) of 750! must not be exceeded.
If the analog outputs are parameterized as DC current outputs,
the output burden resistance must be greater than 1 k!. The
electronic analysis equipment and the display should have high
input impedance.
The measuring ranges of the EPT202 and the connected devices
(electronic analysis system, display, ...) must match. Otherwise
incorrect values will be displayed.
Example:
EPT202 data:
Measuring range
Analog output for oil temperature: -20 - +140C
Output signal: 4 - 20 mA
4 mA corresponds to -20 C
20 mA corresponds to +140 C
Data display:
Input signal for the connected display: 4 - 20 mA
Indicating range of the connected display: -20 - +140 C

RS485 interface:
A permanent communication link between the visualization
software and the EPT202 can be established via the RS485 in-
terface. The RS485 interface is congured as a 2-wire system.
In addition to the two signal cables the GND potential should
be included in the loop. The maximumconnection length is
limited to 500 min accordance with ISO 8482. Low-capa-
citance/attenuation, twisted pair cables should be used.
The signal cables should be terminated with 120 ! resistors at
both ends (see Fig. 7). According to ISO 8482 an interface card
or interface converter with galvanic isolation must be used in
order to avoid potential differences that may arise between the
individual systemground connections due to the large trans-
mission lengths. Up to 32 devices can be connected to the bus
system.
Fig. 7
4.6 Digital interfaces
USB interface:
The EPT202 features a USB port at the front. For connection to
the EPT202 a USB cable with a USB type B connector at one
end (typical printer cable) is required.
This interface is designed for parametering the device and data
retrieval with a PC or laptop, but not for a permanent data link.
When connecting a PC or laptop ensure that the supply voltage
of the EPT202 and the PC/laptop have the same potential (use
socket in control cabinet). Operate a laptop in battery mode if
possible. Potential differences may destroy the equipment.
Rail mounting
19/panel mounting
4.7 Relay contacts for controlling cooling stages
Relay contacts S1 to S4 can be used to control up to 4
additional cooling stages. The number of cooling stages can be
parameterized, thereby dening the number of relay contacts
used for controlling the cooling stages. Relay contacts that are
not used for controlling cooling stages can be used as alarmor
trip contacts. The switching characteristic of the relay contacts
used for controlling cooling stages differs fromthe switching
characteristic of alarmand trip contacts. Therefore please
ensure correct parametering of the relay contacts and cooling
stages. Further information on switching contact parametering
can be found in the functional description in Section 5.
14 BA 2076/04 /01
When connecting the relay contacts for controlling cooling
stages please note the switching characteristic. Two following
settings are possible:
Fail safe mode:
This mode ensures that the cooling stages are switched on
if the supply voltage for the EPT202, the EPT202 itself or the
oil temperature sensor fails, in which case the current oil or
winding temperature is unknown.
The cooling stages or their contactors must be connected at
the NC contacts of the corresponding change-over contact.
See the following example of a motor (fan) connected to relay
contact S1 in the top hat rail version of the EPT202.

Standard mode:
In standard mode the cooling stages are only activated if an oil
temperature sensor fails, but not in the event of failure of the

contactors must be connected at the NO contact of the corres-
ponding change-over contact. See the following example of a

4.9 Error contact
The internal self-monitoring function issues an error message
via the error contact if a fault is detected in the device. The
switching characteristic can be parameterized by the user:
Fail safe mode:
In this mode an error message is issued if the supply voltage
for the EPT202 fails or the EPT202 is faulty.
The wiring must be connected to the NC contact of the cor-
responding change-over contact. See the following example
of a signaling lamp connected to error relay contact in the top
hat rail version of the EPT202.

Standard mode:
In this mode no error message is issued if the supply voltage
for the EPT202 fails or the EPT202 is faulty. This setting can be
used in congurations with frequent switching of the EPT202
supply voltage between internal supply and mains supply or
internal supply and battery backup. In fail safe mode an error
message would be issued in this case.
The wiring must be connected to the NO contact of the cor-
responding change-over contact. See the following example
of a signaling lamp connected to error relay contact in the top
hat rail version of the EPT202.

4.8 Relay contacts for alarm/trip messages
The ALARM and TRIP relay contacts and relay contacts S1 - S4
(when not used for controlling cooling stages) can be used for
overtemperature messages, alarmmessages or also signals for
transformer tripping.
In contrast to the relays for controlling the cooling stages these
relays only respond if the switch point is exceeded, and not in
the event of a device or sensor fault or failure of the supply
voltage.
The wiring must be connected to the NO contact of the cor-
responding change-over contact.

5 Functional description
The EPT202 is used for temperature monitoring and cooling
stage control at transformers or similar equipment.
The device can be used to record the oil temperature from
which the winding temperature can be calculated. Based on
the temperatures the EPT202 can control fans or other cooling
units via relay contacts. The individual functions are explained
in more detail below.
5.1 Sensor inputs
Suitable input sensors for the top oil temperature are Pt100
sensors or sensors with active or passive (supply voltage via the
measuring lines) 4-20 mA output signal. The sensor type can
be customized, although the input ranges have to be factory-
set (standard input range -20C +140C). The temperature
range of the input sensor must match the input range of the
EPT202 (see nameplates).
Otherwise the oil and winding temperature display is incorrect.
The EPT202 can optionally be used to log the ambient tem-
perature. In this case a sensor with 4-20 mA output must be
connected as input sensor for the ambient temperature and a
Pt100 sensor as input sensor for the top oil temperature.
The two sensor inputs for Pt100 and 4-20 mA are monitored
via the device self-monitoring function (see Section 5.9). In
the event of a short circuit or cable break/signal disruption an
error message is issued via the ERROR relay.
5.2 Deactivating the winding temperature
The winding temperature function can be deactivated in the
EPT202 if only the oil temperature is to be logged as a basis for
cooling systemcontrol, for example. If this function is deac-
tivated the following calculations and algorithms are automa-
tically disabled:
CT input, load current and load factor calculation
Winding temperature calculation
MIN/MAX winding temperature logging
Analog winding temperature output
Lifetime consumption calculation
Load-dependent cooling stage activation
5.3 Winding temperature calculation
(hotspot temperature)
The thermal image (hotspot temperature) is calculated accor-
ding to IEC 60076-7 or ANSI IEEE standard C57.91 based on
the oil temperature and the actual load current. The formulas
for calculating the hotspot temperature are shown below.
Further information can be found in the corresponding stan-
dards.
Calculation according to IEC 60076-7
Calculation according to IEC 60076-7
with : Hotspot temperature at time t
: Current top oil temperature
: Hotspot factor (only for IEC standard)
: Gradient between
mean winding temperature and
mean oil temperature at rated current
(only for IEC standard)
: Gradient between hotspot temperature and
top oil temperature at rated current
(only for ANSI standard)
: Load factor (actual/rated current)
: Winding exponent (only for IEC standard)
: Exponent for calculating the current
hotspot temperature
(only for ANSI standard)
: Transformer oil time constant
The current top oil temperature is logged with a Pt100 sensor
or a temperature sensor with 4-20 mA output and fed into the
EPT202.
The CT current transformer is connected to the EPT202 for
mapping the actual load current.
The other factors and parameters described above have to be
parameterized in the EPT202.
For parametering according to ANSI standard the hotspot
factor should be set to 1.0 and the winding exponent to 2 x m
(i.e. for m=0.8 a factor of 1.6 should be used).

5.4 Winding parameters
The EPT202 processes two different types of winding parame-
ters.
The parameters hotspot factor and CT ratio are generally valid
for the transformer and do not change when individual cooling
stages are switched on or off.
The parameters gradient, rated CT current, winding exponent
and time constant may change when cooling stages are swit-
ched on or off. For example, the rated CT current may increase
due to the fact that a transformer can handle a higher load as
a result of increased cooling capacity when a cooling stage is
switched on. These parameters can be set in the EPT202 for up
to 5 cooling stages.
5.5 Lifetime consumption calculation
The lifetime consumption calculation can be congured based
on two different algorithms (ANSI or IEC standard) or deac-
tivated. Please refer to the relevant standards for the lifetime
consumption calculation formulas.
Both algorithms are a function of the hotspot temperature.
The calculation can only provide a sensible value if the winding
parameters are set correctly.
Both algorithms provide the lifetime consumption in percent
based on the expected service life. To this end the expected
service life must be parameterized.
The expected service life for the insulation systemof a trans-
former winding is a function of the materials and the design.
This value can be requested fromthe transformer manufac-
turer.
5.6 Relay contacts
The EPT202 has 7 relay contacts in total with the following functions:
ID Function Alternative function
S1 cooling systemcontrol warning message
ALARM warning message
TRIP warning message
ERROR device self-monitoring
In the EPT202 the number of cooling systems (max. 4 in addition to natural cooling) can be parameterized. Relay contacts S1-S4
(if not used for controlling a cooling system) can be used as relay contacts for warning messages (e.g. alarmor trip message). The
following conguration would be possible, for example:
ID Function Description
S1 cooling systemcontrol ONAF-1 via winding temperature
S2 cooling systemcontrol ONAF-2 via winding temperature
S3 warning message alarmvia oil temperature
S4 warning message trip via oil temperature
ALARM warning message alarmvia winding temperature
TRIP warning message trip via winding temperature
ERROR device self-monitoring device fault
CAUTION
The EPT202 lifetime consumption calculation is based on
thermal aging of the transformer insulation according to
ANSI or IEC standard. The calculated value may differ from
the actual value.
The lifetime consumption only relates to the insulation
systemof the transformer, not the whole transformer.
18 BA 2076/04 /01
The relay contacts used for warning messages have different
switching characteristics than the contacts for controlling the
cooling stages. If the oil temperature sensor fails the contacts
for controlling the cooling stages are activated, but not the
contacts for warning messages (e.g. alarmor trip).
The relay contacts for warning messages can be activated via
the oil or winding temperature. The switching point, hysteresis
and delay time can be set. Unused contacts can be hidden.
5.7 Cooling systemcontrol
The individual transformer cooling stages can be controlled via
relay contacts S1-S4.
The EPT202 is designed to use natural transformer cooling
(usually ONAN) as the basic cooling stage (referred to as
Cooling 0 in the device). This cooling stage has no cooling unit
controlled by the EPT202.
In additional to the basic cooling stage up to 4 further cooling
stages (Cooling 1-4) can be activated via relay contacts S1-S4.
The relays and therefore the cooling stages can be activated
via different functions:
Exceedance of switch points for the oil or winding tempera-
ture (this function is explained below).
Exceedance of a particular load. This function is described in
section 5.7, page 20, Load-dependent cooling stage activati-
on.
Via time control. This function is described in section 5.7,
page 21, Periodic cooling stage activation.
Activation of the cooling stages via switch points for the oil or winding temperature:
For the individual cooling stages temperature exceedance
switch points can be parameterized, e.g. switch on cooling
stage ONAF when the oil temperature exceeds 60C. The
cooling stage activation can be based on the oil temperature
or the winding temperature. In addition, cooling stages can be
switched on permanently via the <manual on>command.
The cooling stage is deactivated and switched off when the
temperature value falls below the switching point minus an
adjustable hysteresis. Again, switching can be controlled via
the oil or the winding temperature. The ve possible control
options are shown below:
Activation Deactivation Notes

ONAN, basic transformer cooling
ONAF-1 First fan bank, switches on when the oil tem-
perature exceeds 50 C, switches off via the oil
temperature at 45 C with a hysteresis of 5 K.
ONAF-2 Second fan bank, switches on when the oil
temperature exceeds 60 C, switches off via the
oil temperature at 55 C with a hysteresis of 5 K
Cooling stage switching (e.g. switching between Cooling 1 and
Cooling 2) results in switching of the parameters for calcu-

lating the winding temperature. The current parameter set is

20 BA 2076/04 /01
The load-dependent cooling stage activation function is
designed to switch on cooling stages in the event of rapid or
strong load changes, based on exceedance of a parameteriz-
able load. This function prevents the transformer reaching a
temperature limit value through cooling. It can be useful if one
of two transformers running in parallel mode fails, causing the
second to handle twice the load, or for generator transformers
that are operated with overload for short periods.
The function is parameterized via the following parameters:
The CT activation limit value, which corresponds to the
transformer load in percent. The cooling stages are activated
if this value is exceeded.
The delay time describes the duration for which the cooling
stages keep running once the temperature has fallen below
the limit value described above.
Example: Set the parameters to 80% and 30 min. respectively
to activate the cooling stages at 80% transformer load and
keep themrunning for 30 minutes after the load has fallen
below the limit value.
Cooling systemcontrol via the temperature limit value is active
in the background. If the cooling stage was already activated
through exceedance of a temperature limit value it remains
active. If a temperature limit value is still exceeded after the
delay time described above the cooling stage remains active
until the temperature falls below the limit value.

Periodic cooling stage activation
The periodic cooling stage activation function is designed to
activate the cooling systemfor a short time after a specied
interval. This function is useful for transformer cooling systems
that are only switched on occasionally. It can prevent seizing
of bearings as a result of long idle time.
The function is parameterized via the following 3 parameters:
Turn-on delay (1-1000 h): After this time the cooling stages
are switched on for the rst time.
Operating time (5-120 min.): Operating time of the individu-
al cooling stages
Interval (10-1000 h): The cooling stages are switched on
periodically based on the interval setting.
This function must be activated for each individual cooling
stage during parametering. It enables selected cooling stages
to be switched on periodically while others remain switched
off, e.g. pumps in a cooling system.
The individual cooling stages are switched on/off at 1-minute
intervals in order to avoid load peaks.

5.8 Load cycle mode
The load cycle mode function ensures that the load is distri-
buted evenly across the cooling units (usually fans) connected
to switching contacts S1-S4. In load cycle mode the relays for
the corresponding switching contacts are activated sequen-
tially at adjustable load cycle intervals. The LED display and
the winding parameters of the active cooling stage remain
unchanged.
Please note that only cooling stages of similar type (usually
several fan banks) should be operated in load cycle mode.

5.9 Device self-monitoring
The EPT202 has a self-monitoring function.
The following faults are detected and reported via the software
and the ERROR relay:
Supply voltage failure (only alarmvia ERROR relay possible)
Input sensor faulty (line interruption or short circuit)
Analog oil temperature output open
Analog winding temperature output open
Internal hardware fault
The switching characteristic of the ERROR relay is parameteriz-
able (see also Section 4.9):
In standard modesupply voltage failure or complete device
failure is not reported via the ERROR relay. This function can
be used for applications in which the supply voltage tends to
be interrupted for short periods due to switching processes
(e.g. between internal and mains supply). In fail safe mode
as described below an error message would be generated
with each switchover sequence.
In fail safe modethe ERROR relay reports each of the errors
described above.
To check the signaling path for the ERROR relay an error has to
be generated manually by pulling the connector for an analog
output or the input sensor. For safety reasons please ensure
that the EPT202 is switched out before pulling or inserting a
connector.
An input sensor faulty error results in the following EPT202
response:
The winding temperature can no longer be calculated, since
the oil temperature is no longer available as the basis of the
calculation.
Both temperatures are no longer displayed.
The residual lifetime calculation is suspended.
Since the current oil and winding temperature is unknown
when this error occurs, for safety reasons all contacts for
controlling the fan groups are activated.
The contacts for alarmand trip messages are not activated but
remain in the state before the sensor failure.
5.10 Analog outputs
The EPT202 has two analog outputs for remote oil tempera-
ture and winding temperature transmission. For both analog
outputs three xed output signals are available:
0-20 mA (fault signal >22 mA)
4-20 mA (fault signal >22 mA)
4-20 mA (fault signal <3.6mA)
The fault signal is output if the oil temperature sensor is faulty.
The electronic analysis system(digital display, moving coil in-
strument etc.) responds with an unrealistic display to indicate
that there is a fault.
In addition two adjustable output signals are available:
Voltage output: Freely adjustable between 0.0-1.0 V and
0.0-10.0 V
Current output: Freely adjustable between 0.0-1.0 mA and
0.0-20.0 mA
The adjustable output signals can be used to generate custo-
mized such as 0- 5 V or 0-10 mA.
The adjustable signals do not result in a fault signal if the oil
temperature sensor fails.
Please ensure that the analog outputs match the measuring
and display ranges of the EPT202 and the connected electro-
nic analysis systemand the maximumburden resistance (for
current signals) or minimumburden resistance (for voltage
signals).
5.11 Data logging
The EPT202 has an internal memory for storing data. The log-
ging interval between two datasets is freely parameterizable.
In addition a dataset is stored after an event.
The following events result in dataset logging:
Supply voltage on/off
Test mode activated/deactivated
Trip activated/deactivated
Alarmactivated/deactivated
Device fault activated/deactivated
Switching contacts (S1-S4) activated/deactivated
Device lockout inactive/active
The data memory has capacity for approx. 32,000 datasets.
With a time interval of 10 minutes datasets can therefore sto-
red for a period of approx. 7.5 months. The longer the logging
interval the longer the period. The data memory has 128 seg-
ments. Once the memory is full it is sequentially overwritten
segment by segment, starting with the oldest data.
The data logger is read via the visualization software and the
data are save in an Excel le. The data analysis can be carried
out in Excel as required.

7 Display and parametering
7 Display and Parametering
This section describes the individual menus and parameters
that are displayed on the device and can be parameterized via
the control keys.
Parametering of the EPT202 via the visualization software is
described in Section 8.
The date and time are kept in memory for at least 2 weeks
without supply voltage. After this time the data are lost.
The current date and current time must be set when the device
is connected for the rst time or reconnected after approx.
2 weeks without power supply. The device automatically opens
the relevant menu item.
The EPT202 must be fully parameterized in order to ensure
correct function.
The following description of the individual menu items is based
on the parametering sequence. The menus are arranged to
offer convenient navigation during operation. The menu struc-
ture is explained in quick reference guide BA 2097.
7.1 Input and output conguration
This menu is used for conguring the
inputs and outputs and turning the win-
ding temperature calculation on or off.
Sensor input
If the <Oil-Temp.Input>menu is se-
lected a further submenu appears with
3 menu items for selecting the input
sensor <Input Signal>, for setting an
offset correction <Offset-Correct.>
and for setting a correction for compen-
sating temperature losses in the thermo-
meter pocket.
Select the input sensor in the menu <Input Signal>.
Please also refer to Section 5.2 on page 16.
The offset correction can be use to
compensate constant temperature
deviations resulting fromunfavourable
location of the thermometer pocket, for
example. Simply enter the offset value.
For example, if the measurement is consistently 3.0C too low,
enter an offset value of +3.0C and conrm.
The temperature correction function can be used to compen-
sate measurement errors caused by heat losses at the thermo-
meter pocket. If this function is activated the systemcalculates
an internal correction value based on empirical data. The
correction value takes effect at oil temperatures above 30C
and increases linearly.
Parametering the analog outputs
This menu is used for parametering the
output signals for the analog oil tempe-
rature output. The analog output for the
winding temperature is parameterized in
the same way.
The rst 3 signals (0-20 mA and 2 x 4-20 mA) are preset out-
put signals.
Use menu item<Adjust mA-Output>to
scale the 4th mA output signal between
0-1 mA and 0-20 mA. Use menu item
<Adjust V-Output>to scale the voltage
signal between 0-1 V and 0-10 V.
The scalable signals can be selected in the menu shown above.
Ambient temperature logging
In this menu itemambient temperature
logging can be activated.
Further information about this function
can be found in Section 5.3 on page 16.
Only the 4-20 mA input can be used as input sensor for the
ambient temperature. In this case a Pt100 sensor must be used
for the top oil temperature input.
Parametering of the input sensor for the oil temperature is
then automatically set to Pt100.
ERROR relay conguration
The switching characteristic of the
ERROR relay is congurable. There are
2 modes, <Fail-Safe>and <Standard>.
In fail-safe mode an error message is
generated if the supply voltage fails or if the device fails com-
pletely, in standard mode no error message is generated. See
also Section 4.9.
Winding temperature on/off
In this menu itemthe winding tempera-
ture can be turned on or off.
This means that all functions and calcu-
lations based on the winding tempera-
ture are deactivated.
For further information please refer to Section 5.2
7.2 Cooling stage-specic parameters
In this menu the cooling stage-specic
parameters, which also formthe basis
for calculating the winding temperature,
are parameterized.

Current transformer ratio, load current and load factor
Menu item<CT/Load-Current>con-
tains 3 submenus for parametering the
CT ratio and displaying the actual load
current and the load factor.
The EPT202 has an input for the CT
transformer current that is used for
mapping the actual transformer load.
The transformer ratio is parameterized
in the <CT-Ratio>menu. It forms the
basis for calculating the actual transformer load current. The
CT ratio is normalized to 1. For example, a value if 750:1 must
be parameterized i.e. if the transformer nameplate shows a
transformer ratio of 1500:2.
The <Load-Current>menu indicates the
actual load current.
In the <Load-Factor>menu is actual
load factor, calculated as actual load
current / rated load current, is
displayed.
Hotspot factor (H)
The hotspot factor is an empirical value
used for determining the hotspot tempe-
rature according to IEC 60076-7.
It depends on the transformer size,
the short-circuit impedance and other
factors.
If the value is set to 1.0, the mean temperature of the top
winding layer is calculated according to IEC standard and
displayed.
For the calculation according to ANSI standard this value must
be set to 1.0, since it is not used in the calculation.
Number of cooling stages
The number of cooling stages (1-5) is
set in the <Cooling Cong>menu. If the
transformer has 3 cooling stages, for
example (ONAN, ONAF-1, ONAF-2), the
value must be set to 3. During parametering please note that
the rst cooling stage is always the basic transformer cooling
stage, i.e. it is not activated with an EPT202 relay.
The basic cooling stage is displayed as C0, the other cooling
stages as S1-S4. These are then also activated with relay con-
tacts S1-S4. The cooling stage IDs can only be changed in the
visualization software.

Cooling stage-specic parameter
Each cooling stage has a submenu with
menu items for parametering the rated
CT current, the gradient, the winding
exponent and the time constant.
Rated CT current
The rated CT current is the current pre-
sent at CT transformer if the transformer
is operated with rated load. For each
cooling stage the rated CT current can
be set between 0.5 A and 5.0 A.
The rated CT current is calculated as the rated transformer
current divided by the CT transformer ratio.
Example: Rated transformer current I
N
=820 A
CT ratio =1000:1
I
CT
=I
N
/ =820 A / 1000 =0.82 A
Gradient gr
The gradient indicates the temperature
difference between oil and winding
temperature at rated load (for hotspot
factor H =1.0). The gradient can have
a different value for each cooling stage.
Range:
0.0 - 50.0 K.
Winding exponent y
The winding exponent y can be set
between 1.0 and 2.0. IEC 60076-7 spe-
cies the following values for different
cooling types:
Cooling ON.. y =1.3
Cooling OF.. y =1.6
Cooling OD.. y =2.0
For the calculation according to the ANSI standard y is the
result from(2 x m). According to the ANSI standard mis
between 0.8 and 1.0.
Time constant !
A sudden change in load current does
not generate a sudden change in
winding temperature. It approaches the
actual value based on an exponential
function. If the load current increases suddenly the winding
temperature reaches 63.5% of its nal value after time ! and
95% of its nal value after 3 !.
The time constant can be set between 0.0 and 30.0 minutes for
each cooling stage.

7.3 Switching contacts for cooling systemcontrol
The switching contacts for controlling
the cooling systemare parameterized in
menu <-COOL.CONTACT->. The rst 3
menu items are used for parametering
the special functions load cycle mode, periodic cooling stage
activation and load-dependent cooling stage activation.
The number of switching contacts shown in the menu appear
depends on the number of cooling stages set in menu <Cooling
Cong>.
Load cycle mode
This menu itemis used for parametering
the interval at which the relay contacts
for controlling the cooling stages
associated with load cycle mode are
alternated. Further information about the load cycle mode
function can be found in Section 5.8.
To deactivate load cycle mode set the load cycle interval to 0h.
Periodic cooling stage activation
The periodic cooling stage activation
function <Automat.-Cooling>is used
to activate the cooling stages assigned
to this function for a parameterizable
interval. Further information about this function can be found
in Section 5.7.
The following 3 parameters must be set:
Turn-on delay:
Once this time has elapsed the cooling
stages are activated for the rst time.
This parameter can be used to initiate
activation at a particular time on a
particular day of the week.
To this end the time remaining up to this time must be calcu-
lated and parameterized.
Operating time:
The operating time species how long
the cooling stages are activated. If
several cooling stages are activated,
activation of the individual stages takes
place with a time delay of 2 minutes in order to avoid voltage
spikes.
Interval time:
The next activation takes place after the
interval time has elapsed. To activate
the cooling stages every 2 weeks, for
example, set an interval time of 336 h.
The interval time can be set between 2 - 1000 h.

With load-dependent cooling stage
activation <Load-Ctrl.-Cool.>the
cooling stages are activated when a
parameterized load factor is exceeded.
Further information about this function can be found in Sec-
tion 5.7.
The function can be activated and deac-
tivated via menu item<Cong On/Off>.
Activation activates all cooling stages, if
the corresponding load factor is excee-
ded.
The cooling stages are activated if the
activation limit value <Activ.-Threshold>
is exceeded. Set the load factor in %.
This is the transformer load in % depen-
ding on the currently active cooling stage.
The switch-off delay time species how
long the cooling stages remain activated
once the load has fallen below the ac-
tivation limit value parameterized above.
The value can be set between 5 - 120 minutes. After this time
has elapsed the cooling stages are deactivated again, unless a
temperature limit value was exceeded in the meantime. After
this time has elapsed the cooling systemis once again control-
led via the temperature limit value.
Parametering the switching points
Each cooling stage activated via swit-
ching points has a submenu for congu-
ring the switching point and setting the
switching point, the hysteresis and the
delay time.
Menu item<Contact Cong>has a
submenu for setting the switching
characteristic and conguring activation
and deactivation, activating/deactivation
load cycle mode and periodic cooling stage activation
Switching characteristic:
The contact switching characteristic can
be set to 2 different modes. In contrast
to standard mode, in fail-safe mode the
contacts are closed even if the supply
voltage fails.

Activating the switching contacts:
Activation of the cooling stages and
their contacts is congured in the
<Activation>menu.
With <Manual On>the switching
point is permanently active.
<Oil-Temp.>is used to activate the switching point if the oil
temperature is exceeded
<Winding-Temp.>is used to activate the switching point if
the winding temperature is exceeded
Deactivating the switching contacts:
In <Deactivation>is used to congure
the temperature at which the cooling
stages and the associated switching
contacts are deactivated. This menu is
inactive if permanent activation is enabled via <Manual On>.
Activating load cycle mode:
With <Alternate On>load cycle mode is
activated for this cooling stage.
Further information about load cycle
mode can be found in Section 5.8:
Activation of periodic cooling stage activation:
With <Auto.-Cool. On>periodic cooling
stage activation is activated for this
cooling stage. Further information about
this function can be found in Section 5.7
Switching point
Menu <Switch Point>is used to set the
temperature switching point for
activating the respective cooling stage
and the corresponding switching con-
tact.
Hysteresis
The hysteresis is set in the <Hysteresis>
menu. The cooling stage and the asso-
ciated switching contact is deactivated
once the temperature falls below the
switching point minus the hysteresis.
Example: Switching point 70C, hysteresis 5C: the cooling
stage is deactivated at 65C.

Delay time
The <Delay-Time>menu can be used
to set a delay time. In this case the
switching contacts are activated with
a delay of, say, 2.0 seconds after the
temperature limit is exceeded. This can
be used to minimize voltage spikes, for example, by switching
on two cooling units with a time delay.
7.4 Switching contacts for alarmmessages
Switching contacts S5 (ALARM) and S6
(TRIP) are designed to generate alarm,
trip or warning messages.
Contacts S1-S4 are also available for
alarmmessages, if they are not used for controlling the cooling
system. If the transformer has 3 cooling stages, for example,
(of which 2 can be activated with switching contacts), con-
tacts S3 and S4 can be used to generate further warning
messages.
The switching contacts for warning messages differ fromthe
contacts for controlling the cooling stages in that they are not
activated in the event of an oil temperature input sensor fault.
This menu also contains the test function for the switching
contacts. It offers a convenient method for testing the signa-
ling path after installation or revisions.
Test function:
Selecting the <Test Function>menu
itembrings up a further submenu
for specifying whether the switching
contact test is to be carried out with or
without the switching contacts for alarmand trip messages.
Please note that a test that includes the alarmand trip con-
tacts may generate signals that switch off the transformer.
After the selection a window appears in
which a (test) temperature is displayed.
This temperature can be modied with
the Up or Down arrow key. The simula-
ted temperature has no effect on the calculation algorithms
within the device. It only affects the switching contacts.
Switching contacts:
Each switching contact has a sub-
menu for conguration and setting the
switching points, the hysteresis and the
delay time.

<Input/output conguration> tab
This tab is used to parameterize the basic settings for the oil temperature input sensor, the analog outputs, the error relay and the
winding temperature.
Ambient temperature: This switch activates the ambient tem-
perature logging. In this case the input sensor for the oil tempe-
rature is automatically set to Pt100 and is no longer selectable.
Further information about this function can be found in Section
5, Functions.
Oil temperature input: Use the <Oil temp. input>pull-down
menu to select the input sensor for the oil temperature.
Zero point correction: The zero point correction can be used to compensate constant temperature deviations resulting from
unfavourable location of the thermometer pocket, for example. Simply enter the offset value.
For example, if the measurement is consistently 3.0 C too low, enter an offset value of +3.0 C.
Sensor loss correction: This function can be used to compensate measurement errors caused by heat losses at the thermometer
pocket. If this function is activated the systemcalculates an internal correction value based on empirical data. The correction
value takes effect at oil temperatures above 30 C and increases linearly.

Analog output for oil temperature: This menu is used for para-
metering the output signal for the analog oil temperature output.
The analog output for the winding temperature is parameterized
in the same way.
The rst 3 signals (0-20 mA and 2 x 4-20 mA) are preset output signals.
The two lower output signals are freely scalable between 0-1 mA to 0-20 mA and 0-1 V to 0-10 V respectively. If one of these
two signals is selected a eld for scaling the signal end value appears to the right of the pull-down menu.
Error relay conguration: The switching characteristic of the
ERROR relay is congurable. There are 2 modes, <Fail-Safe>and
<Standard>. In fail-safe mode an error message is generated if
the supply voltage fails or if the device fails completely. In standard mode no error message is generated. Further information can
be found in the functional description in Section 5.
Winding conguration: Use the pull-down menu to activate/
deactivate the winding temperature. This means that all func-
tions and calculations based on the winding temperature are
deactivated. Further information can be found in the functional description in Section 5.
<Data logger> tab
Use this tab to read the data logger and parameterize storage settings.
46 BA 2076/04 /01
The upper tab area shows the number of currently stored data-
sets and the data (date and time) for the rst and last dataset.
Use the <Read out data records ...>button to download da-
tasets fromthe device and save themon the PC. Clicking the
button brings up a window in which datasets can be selected
for downloading. Clicking the <Load>button brings up a win-
dow for entering the target path. A message appears once the
process is completed.
The data are saved in an xls le (Excel format) that can be
opened with Excel.
The Excel le is structured as follows:
The le contains the following data:
The rst third contains the dataset no. and the date and time when the data where saved,
followed by the logging events: The EPT202 cyclically stores datasets at parameterizable intervals. Additional datasets are stored
whenever a change in status (referred to as event) occurs in the EPT202. Further information about the data logging function can
be found in the functional description in Section 5.
The central section shows the EPT202 status bits and the right-hand section the measured values.
47 BA 2076/04/01
Messko
The status bits and the measured values (which are logged if the optional EPT202OL/CT module is connected) are set to 0 in the
table.
Use the Excel functions to analyze the data as required.
In the lower tab area you can set the log interval and the date
and time. Please note that the device does not automatically
switch between summer und winter time.
The log interval should not be too short because the temperature
response of transformers is rather slow, and datasets for special
events are in any case logged automatically.
48 BA 2076/04 /01
<Lifetime consumption> tab
This menu is used to parameterize and display the lifetime consumption.
Under <Algorithm>the calculation can be switched off (<OFF>), or the required calculation algorithmcan be selected (IEC or
ANSI standard).
Use the <Expected Life>eld to parameterize the expected transformer service life. This value refers to the expected service life
of the insulation systemat rated load. The assumed value can be found in the transformer documentation or obtained fromthe
transformer manufacturer.
The life consumption is specied in percent. For example, if the transformer has an expected service life of 30 years and a life
consumption of 50% is displayed, the expected remaining transformer service life at rated load is 15 years. However, the transfor-
mer does not age at a constant rate but according to its thermal load.
Further information about the lifetime consumption calculation can be found in the functional description in Section 5.

8.12 <Switch point> menu
The <Switch point>menu is used to parameterize additional contacts used for warning messages such as. alarmor trip.
Switching contacts S5 and S6 are designed to generate alarm, trip or warning messages. Contacts S1-S4 are also available for
alarmmessages, if they are not used for controlling the cooling system. If the transformer has 3 cooling stages, for example, (of
which 2 can be activated with switching contacts), contacts S3 and S4 can be used to generate further warning messages.
The switching contacts for warning messages differ fromthe contacts for controlling the cooling stages in that they are not
activated in the event of an oil temperature input sensor fault.
Parametering the switching contacts:
Name:
The switching contacts can be assigned a name in the text eld. The name is then also displayed in the submenus of the EPT202
and in the Monitor window. The name may contain 1-8 characters.
Activation:
The pull-down menu can be used to specify whether the contact is activated via the oil or winding temperature. Alternatively the
contact can be deactivated with <Off>.
50 BA 2076/04 /01
Switching point, hysteresis and delay time:
In the elds to the right of the name the switching point, hysteresis and delay time can be set. The procedure is the same as the
procedure for setting the switching contacts for cooling systemcontrol (see Section 8.13).
Test function:
The test function is located in the lower area
of the menu. On the right select whether the
switching contact test should include the switching contacts for warning messages (alarm, trip).
Please note that a test that includes the switching contacts for warning messages may generate signals that switch off the trans-
former.
Use the <Test>button to activate the test function.
The <Test value>eld can be used to modify a simulated test temperature with the Up and Down keys. The simulated temperatu-
re has no effect on the calculation algorithms within the device. It only affects the switching contacts.

8.13 <Cooling> menu
In the <Cooling>menu the cooling stage- and winding-specic parameters and the cooling systemcontrol parameters are set.
The menu subdivided into individual tabs. The rst tab is used for the basic settings. The number of additional tabs depends on the
number of cooling stages. Each cooling stage is parameterized in a separate tab.
The individual parameters to be set can be found on the nameplate or the technical documentation for the transformer.
<Conguration> tab
Fields for setting the hotspot factor and the CT transformer ratio can be found in the upper tab area.
Hotspot factor:
The hotspot factor is an empirical value used for determining the
hotspot temperature according to IEC 60076-7. It depends on the
transformer size, the short-circuit impedance and other factors.
If the value is set to 1.0, the mean temperature of the top winding layer is calculated according to IEC standard and displayed. For
the calculation according to ANSI standard this value must be set to 1.0, since it is not used in the calculation.
52 BA 2076/04 /01
CT transformer ratio:
The EPT202 has an input for the CT transformer current that is used for mapping the actual transformer load. The transformer
ratio is parameterized in the <CT-Ratio>eld. If forms the basis for calculating the actual transformer load current.
The CT ratio is normalized to 1. For example, a value if 750:1 must be parameterized if the transformer nameplate shows a trans-
former ratio of 1500:2.
CT current and load factor display:
The transformer ratio is parameterized in the <CT-current>eld.
In the <Load factor>eld the actual load factor, calculated as actual load current / rated load current, is displayed.
Number of cooling stages:
The number of cooling stages is parameterized in the <No. of
cooling stages>eld (1-5). If the transformer has 3 cooling
stages, for example (ONAN, ONAF-1, ONAF-2), the value must
be set to 3. During parametering please note that the rst cooling stage is always the basic transformer cooling stage, i.e. it is not
activated with an EPT202 relay. If this value changes the number of tabs shown in the <Cooling>menu also changes.
Auxiliary functions for controlling the cooling stages:
The lower tab area contains elds for parametering auxiliary functions for controlling the cooling stages.
Periodic cooling stage activation:
The periodic cooling stage activation function is used to
activate the cooling stages assigned to this function for a pa-
rameterizable interval. Further information about this function
can be found in the functional description in Section 5.
The following 3 parameters must be set:
Switch-on delay:
After this time has elapsed the cooling stages are activated for the rst time. This parameter can be used to initiate activation at
a particular time on a particular day of the week, for example. To this end the time remaining up to this time must be calculated
and parameterized.
Operating time:
The operating time species how long the cooling stages are activated. If several cooling stages are activated, activation of the
individual stages takes place with a time delay of 2 minutes in order to avoid voltage spikes.
Interval time:
The next activation takes place after the interval time has elapsed. To activate the cooling stages every 2 weeks, for example, set
an interval time of 336 h. The interval time can be set between 2 - 1000 h.
Fan running alternation operation:
The <Alternate interval>eld is used for parametering the
interval at which the relay contacts for controlling the cooling
stages associated with load cycle mode are alternated. Further
information about the fan running alternation mode can be
found in the functional description in Section 5.
To deactivate fan running alternation mode set the load cycle interval to 0 h.
Load-controlled cooling activation:
With load-controlled cooling activation the cooling stages are activated when
a parameterized load factor is exceeded. Further information about this func-
tion can be found in the functional description in Section 5.
The function can be activated and deactivated via the on/off switch. Activation
activates all cooling stages, if the corresponding load factor is exceeded.
53 BA 2076/04/01
Messko
The cooling stages are activated if the activation limit value is exceeded. Set the load factor in %. This is the transformer load in
% depending on the currently active cooling stage.
The operating time species how long the cooling stages remain activated once the load has fallen below the activation limit
value parameterized above. The value can be set between 5 - 120 minutes. After this time has elapsed the cooling stages are
deactivated again, unless a temperature limit value was exceeded in the meantime. The cooling systemcontrol is then once again
based on the temperature limit value.
<Cooling 0> tab
The parameters for the basic cooling stage (usually. ONAN) are set in the <Cooling 0>tab. This cooling stage cannot be controlled
via relays. It is always active when no additional cooling stage is activated.
Name of cooling stage:
This eld can be used to name the cooling stage. The name is then also displayed
in the submenus of the EPT202 display. The name may contain 1-8 characters
Cooling stage parameters:
In the lower area the cooling stage parameters are set.
Rated CT current
The rated CT current is the current present at the CT transformer if the transformer is operated with rated load. For each cooling
stage the rated CT current can be set between 0.5 A and 5.0 A.
54 BA 2076/04 /01
The rated CT current is calculated as the rated transformer current divided by the CT transformer ratio.
Example: Rated transformer current I
N
=820A
Transformer ratio CT =1000:1
I
CT
=I
N
/ =820A / 1000 =0,82A
Gradient gr
The gradient indicates the temperature difference between oil and winding temperature at rated load (for hotspot factor H =1.0).
The gradient can have a different value for each cooling stage. Range: 0.0 - 50.0 K.
Winding exponent y
The winding exponent y can be set between 1.0 and 2.0. IEC 60076-7 species the following values for different cooling types
Cooling ON.. y =1,3
Cooling OF.. y =1,6
Cooling OD.. y =2,0
For the calculation according to the ANSI standard y is the result from(2 x m). According to the ANSI standard mis between 0.8
and 1.0.
Time constant !
A sudden change in load current does not generate a sudden change in winding temperature. It approaches the actual value
based on an exponential function. If the load current increases suddenly the winding temperature reaches 63.5% of its nal value
after time and 95% of its nal value after 3 !.
The time constant can be set between 0.0 and 30.0 minutes for each cooling stage.
Tabs <Cooling 1> to <Cooling 4>
55 BA 2076/04/01
Messko
Tabs <Cooling 1>to <Cooling 4>are used to set the parameters for controlling the cooling stages (in addition to the parameters
set in the <Cooling 0>tab).
Name of cooling stage:
This eld can be used to name the cooling stage. The name
is then also displayed in the submenus of the EPT202 display
and in the Monitor window. The switching contact used for
activating the cooling stage is shown to the right of the name. The name may contain 1-8 characters.
Parametering the switching points
For each of the cooling stages (up to 4) the switch point, the
hysteresis and the delay time can be set.
Switch point:
The <Switch point>eld is used to set the temperature switch point for activating the respective cooling stage and the cor-
responding switching contact.
Hysteresis:
The <Hysteresis>eld is used to set the hysteresis. The cooling stage and the associated switch contact is deactivated once the
temperature falls below the switch point minus the hysteresis.
Example: Switch point 70 C, hysteresis 5 C: the cooling stage is deactivated at 65 C.
Delay time:
The <Delay time>eld can be used to set a delay time. In this case the switching contacts are activated with a delay of, say, 2.0
seconds after the temperature limit is exceeded. This can be used to minimize voltage spikes, for example, by switching on two
cooling units with a time delay.
Parametering the switching characteristic
Contact mode:
The contact switching characteristic can be set to 2 different
modes. In contrast to standard mode, in fail-safe mode the
contacts are closed even if the supply voltage fails.
Activating the switching contacts:
Activation of the cooling stages and their contacts is con-
gured in the <Cooling activation>eld.
With <Manual On>the switching point is permanently active.
<Oil-Temp.>is used to activate the switching point if the oil temperature is exceeded
<Winding-Temp.>is used to activate the switching point if the winding temperature is exceeded
Deactivating the switching contacts:
<Cooling deactivation>is used to congure the temperature at which the cooling stages and the associated switching contacts
are deactivated. This menu is inactive if permanent activation is enabled via <Manual On>.
Activating auxiliary functions:
The two switches <Fan running alternation On>and <Periodic
cooling activation On>are used to activate and deactivate
these two special functions for the respective cooling stage.
