WHAT IS IT
Digitrip OPTIM Trip Units have been designed and enginered to enhance the industry
leading family of Cutler-Hammer microprocessor-based rms sensing trip units.
To the family of Digitrip RMS 310, 510, 610, 810, and 910 Trip Units, is added the
new programmable Digitrip OPTIM 750 and 1050 Trip Units. . . and this means Cutler-Hammer offers the most comprehensive
range of electronic trip units in the industry across a seamless family of low voltage circuit breakers.
Digitrip OPTIM is a new programmable communicating microprocessor-based low voltage
electronic trip unit system for Westinghouse Series C Molded Case Circuit Breakers and low voltage power breakers.
With Digitrip OPTIM, one now has the capability of providing the electrical distribution
system with superior programmable protection and coordination. . . plus a state-of-the-art advanced warning capability
along with system diagnostics, monitoring, and communications.
Digitrip OPTIM will enhance your electrical distribution system by allowing one
to reduce downtime, manage energy costs, and utilize equipment more efficiently.
WHATS NEW
Key Features of Programmable Trip Units
- Virtual Infinite Settings - You can increase the setting increments by a
factor of 10.
- Better Coordination - Trip unit settings are displayed in amperes, not multiples.
- Primary Value Trip Settings - Trip unit settings are displayed in amperes,
not multiples.
- Improved Accuracy and Reliability - Easy to Configure
- System Security - Password Protected.
- Field Selectable - Short and instantaneous settings can be programmed in
or out. also thermal memory and discriminator features are field selectable.
- Downloadable - All settins and protection selections can be downloadable
from a P.C.
- Software Packages - On-line coordination and configuration software is available.
- Trip Unit Testing - Can verify trip unit is operating correctly by carrying
out trip or no trip testing with Optimizer, BIM or at the P.C.
- Thermal Memory - Prevents system overheating due to repeated overlaods.
- Discriminator - Provides protection when closing breaker on startup if no
instantaneous setting is provided.
- Zone Selective Interlocking - Provides positive selectivity on ground fault
and short time protection without time delays, reduces stress on up stream breakers.
- I4t Curve Shaping - Better coordination with fuses.
- System Diagnostics - Helps get breaker back on line quickly after a trip.
- Early Warning Alarms - Prevents unnecessary breaker trip via advanced warning
of high load or ground fault.
- RMS Sensing - Prevents Nuisance trips due to non-sinusoidal waveforms.
