SIA-B Standard CT’s, the ultimate technology in protection solutions.

Advanced OC&EF Self-Powered Protection Relay

SIA B with Standard CT’s, is an overcurrent protection relay with self powered and dual powered (Self-powering + Auxiliary power) options.

Impeccably suited for protection and distribution systems, with minimal space requirement SIA-B compact relay provide a comprehensive range of functions in a amazingly compact and space-saving housing.

The real advantage is that the installation and subsequent maintenance of external batteries is eliminated. The innovative relay is Self powered using the operating current through three /1 (<2VA) standard current transformers fitted on the lines. These transformers are also used to obtain current measurements. Besides, SIA-B Relay can be used with auxiliary power supply (24-230 Vac/dc). The operating costs of the centre are really reduced.

SIA-B Standard CT’s Protection Relay offering a high performance previously available only in relays with Vaux:

  • Remote communications for SCADA (Modbus or DNP3.0 protocols).
  • Up to 10 COMTRADE records.
  • Advanced functions.
  • Completely configurable I/O thanks to advanced logic.

Ultra-fast SOTF
Very low start-up levels and minimum consumption <2 VA
Compact design

Protect your installation with the highest precision thanks to oscillographic records plus extra events and fault records, requiring minimum current levels for the relay to start.

Features

  • Overcurrent Protection Relay with the advantage of self powered and dual powered (Self-powering + Auxiliary power) options.
  • The relay is self powered using the operating current through three /1 (<2VA) standard current transformers fitted on the lines. These transformers are also used to obtain current measurements.
  • Besides, SIA-B relay can be used with auxiliary power supply (24-230 Vac/dc).
  • The relay can be also supplied by a USB cable connected to the laptop, with the USB KITCOM adapter or an standard power bank.
  • Internal commissioning battery included.
  • 50_1, 50/51, 50G_1, 50/51G, 49, SHB, PGC protection functions.
  • Micro USB front port connection (Modbus RTU protocol) for local communication. Remote communication through rear RS485 port (Modbus RTU or DNP 3.0 selectable by general setting) as optional.
  • 49T function available through configurable inputs.
  • 52 function to control the state of the circuit breaker.
  • 50_2, 50G_2, CLP, 46, 50BF and trip block for switch disconnector as optional.
  • Specific test menu is provided.
  • High electromagnetic compatibility.
  • The installation and subsequent maintenance of external batteries is eliminated. The operating costs of the centre are reduced.
  • Really low start-up levels: 75 mA in three phase system /160 mA in single phase system, being one of the fastest Realys of the market.
  • The line opening mechanism is activated by means of a striker PRT, operated by the energy supplied by the relay.
  • There are 4 configurable LEDs. When the relay is switched off, their previous states can be checked by powering the relay up (by self-powering the relay, through USB cable, auxiliary voltage or pressing commissioning battery).
  • The SIA-B is fitted with the demand of current (load data profiling) with the following characteristics:
    • Number of records: 168
    • Recording mode circular
    • Sampling rate (interval): configurable through communications: 1 – 60 min.
  • Non-volatile RAM memory in order to store up to 1.024 events, disturbance fault recording (DFR- 20 fault reports and 10 oscillographic records in COMTRADE format), maintaining date & time thanks to its internal RTC (Real Time Clock) even without power supply.

Software

Communication Software for SIA & SIL protection relays

The SICom PC software has been designed and programmed to gain access to all of Fanox relays information, to modify the settings and configuration, check states and measurements and to analyse and save events and fault reports using a graphic-friendly user interface.

SICom software works with the Windows® Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 operating system.

  • General data reading: Complete model, Version, Serial number, etc.
  • States reading
  • Measurements reading
  • Reading and changing settings
  • Reading and changing configuration
  • Reading and deleting events
  • Reading and deleting fault reports
  • Reading and deleting demand current (load data profiling)
  • Reading and saving oscillographic records in Comtrade format
  • Changing the user passwords
  • Saving and Loading settings files
  • Saving and Loading configuration files
  • Saving events and fault reports
  • Saving demand current (load data profiling)
  • Date-time synchronization
  • Configuring the communication parameters
  • Reading and changing counters
  • Commands for opening and closing the circuit breaker and block/unblock the recloser
  • Configuration of the inputs
  • Configuration of the outputs
  • Configuration of the causes that start a Fault Report

The update of the software does not require any user´s action, this is, if the computer is connected to Internet, SICom updates itself when it is started.
It will allow you to prepare all the settings and relay configurations without having the relay connected to the PC (offline mode), reducing engineering and commissioning time.
SICom program uses Modbus protocol, so only the ports with this protocol can be used to establish the communication.

Accesories

Striker – PRT

  • This is a single effect solenoid. The striker is spring operated.
  • The striker is activated by low-power polarised electrical signal supplied by the relay in case of a fault.
  • The striker is reset to its starting position manually.

Auxiliary Battery Power Supply – KITCOM

  • The KitCom is an adapter to supply SIA relays through the front communication port, allowing the communication with the computer simultaneously.
  • This adapter is very useful in the commissioning processes of the transformation centres, allowing full verification of the centre, without any auxiliary power supply.
  • The equipment has a microswitch that feeds the power supply with a LED (ON) when the voltage is adequate.
  • In addition to all the necessary to give the power supply, this device has two LED associated with the Rx and Tx lines of communication, and they are used to verify that there is data traffic between the PC and the SIA relay.
