BENDER LINETRAXX® RCMA423

The AC/DC sensitive residual current monitor RCMA423 is designed for monitoring earthed power supply systems (TN and TT systems) where smooth DC fault currents or residual currents continuously greater than zero may occur. These are in particular loads containing six-pulse rectifiers or one way rectifiers with smoothing, such as converters, battery chargers, cons­truction site equipment with frequency-controlled drives. Currents in single conductors can also be monitored by RCMA423.

The prewarning stage (50…100 % of the set response value I_Δn2) allow to distinguish between prewarning and alarm. Since the values are measured with measuring current transformers, the device is nearly independent of the load current and the nominal voltage of the system.
