General Electric (GE) recently introduced a new motor management relay, SR469-P1-HI-A20-E, that provides a comprehensive solution for the protection, control and monitoring of medium voltage motors. With its advanced protection features, flexible configuration options and high reliability, this relay meets the demanding requirements of industrial production, power systems and mining metallurgy.

The SR469-P1-HI-A20-E relay offers a variety of protection features, including overload, short circuit, ground fault and stall protection, to ensure safe and stable motor operation. “It uses a Motor Settings Auto-Configurator for simplified configuration, enabling quick and easy setting of motor parameters.” The input voltage range is 90-300 VDC and is designed to be compatible with 1A phase CT secondary, ensuring compatibility with different motor and application requirements.

In addition, the relay has a self-assessment function that assesses motor health and provides configurable alerts when rotor problems are detected, enabling early fault detection and reducing troubleshooting time and downtime.” With GE Multilin’s EnerVista 469 program, indicators related to motor health can be checked more efficiently.”

Concluding remarks:

The introduction of the GE SR469-P1-HI-A20-E Motor management relay further strengthens GE’s leadership position in industrial automation and motor protection. The relay is expected to be widely used worldwide to help companies improve production efficiency, optimize product quality, reduce energy consumption and reduce failure rates.
