EMOTRON EL-FI M20

Product Description: EMOTRON EL-FI M20 Shaft Power Monitor

The EMOTRON EL-FI M20 is a sophisticated shaft power monitor designed to protect industrial processes by detecting and reacting to changes in motor load. By monitoring the power consumption of a motor, the M20 can identify conditions like overloads, underloads, or blockages, and trigger an alarm or shut down the system to prevent damage. Its compact design and user-friendly interface make it a versatile and reliable solution for a wide range of applications.

Key Advantages

• Reliable Protection: The M20 provides superior motor and equipment protection by accurately monitoring shaft power, which is a more precise indicator of mechanical load than just current alone. This prevents costly breakdowns and reduces downtime.

• Easy to Use: With a straightforward interface and simple setup process, the M20 is easy to install and configure, even for complex applications.

• Compact Design: Its small footprint makes it easy to integrate into existing control cabinets without taking up a lot of space.

• Versatile Applications: The ability to work with a wide range of supply voltages and monitor currents up to 999A allows it to be used in various industrial settings.

Important Considerations

• Proper Installation: The device must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local regulations and the manufacturer's instructions.

• Current Transformers (CTs): For currents above the device's direct measurement range, external current transformers must be used. Ensure the CTs are correctly sized and installed.

• Environmental Conditions: The M20 is rated for IP20, meaning it is protected from solid objects but not from water. Install the device in a dry, protected environment within its specified operating temperature range.

• Safety First: Always disconnect power to the equipment before performing any installation or maintenance on the M20.
