1. Description
This loss of mains relay type LMR-122D forms part of a complete DEIF series (the
uni-line) of relays for protection and control of generators.

The LMR-122D is applied to protect synchronous generators running in parallel with a


high-voltage network (the mains) against damages caused by automatic reconnection
to the network.

The LMR-122D will detect a mains failure, provided that a disconnection at an


arbitrary point of the network results in a swift change of the generator frequency
(vector shift) and/or a changing frequency overtime, df/dt (R.O.C.O.F).

The LMR-122D vector shift detects the sudden change of the load angle of the
generator, arising the moment the external mains circuit breaker is opened
momentarily on mains failure, thus disconnecting the generator. Basically a
momentary 5% change of the load results in a 4.5 electr. degr. change of the load
angle of the generator. If the vector shift potentiometer of the LMR-122D is set to 4
electr. degr., the relay will thus open its mains circuit breaker, ensuring that the
generator remains disconnected, until the mains has been restored, and the generator
has been resynchronised.

The LMR-122D df/dt detects a change of frequency overtime. If the frequency keeps
changing for four periods in a row, exceeding the set-point, the output is activated.
2. Label
The relay is provided with a label with the following data:

Type designation DEIF’s order ack. No.

when customizing the unit.

Note: The relay is provided with a 200 ms power-up relay, ensuring correct
function of the relay on connection of the auxiliary voltage.

Normally energised contacts (”NE”) are not activated (contact does not
open/close) until 200 ms after connection of the auxiliary voltage.

Installation and start up instructions LMR-122D

3. Mounting instructions
The LMR-122D is designed for
panel mounting, being
mounted on a 35 mm DIN rail,
or by means of two 4-mm
screws.

Weight: ca. 0.650 kg.

The design of the relay makes mounting of it close to other uni-line units possible,
however make sure there are min. 50 mm between the top and bottom of this relay
and other relays/units.
The DIN rail must always be placed horizontally when several relays are mounted on
the same rail.
4. Connection diagram
A 2A fuse may protect all voltage
inputs.

The relay is protected against ESD


(electrostatic electricity), and further
special protection against this during
the mounting of the relay is not
necessary.

The LMR-122D may be connected


between 2 phases or between 1 phase
and neutral.

The LMR-122D is to be configured so


that the input of the relay corresponds
to the connected voltage.

The RESET input marked ”RES” is


blocking the vector shift and the df/dt
when the contact is closed.

The 2 relay outputs are related to vector shift “B” and df/dt “C”.

The terminal “sta” (status) is an optocoupler output from the internal function check,
which can be used for alarm purposes.

5. Start up instructions
5.1 Setting and indication
Setting of LED/relay
Delay (initialising): Yellow LED ”SUPERVISION” is lit after the
(0.5…5 s) timer has expired.
Vector shift: Red LED “MAINS FAIL” is lit during fault
(2…20 electr. degr.) condition.
R.O.C.O.F.: Red LED “MAINS FAIL” is lit during fault
0…5 Hz/s condition.
The delay timer is started, when the contacts connected to the ”RES” input open. It is
typically set to 1 s; however, a longer delay is selected if unwanted disconnections
occur immediately upon synchronisation of the generator to the mains.
During start up, the following setting procedure is recommended:
a. Generators operating as emergency generators (much of their power is used
locally, and simulating change of generator load is possible):
1. Remove connections to ”RES”
2. Adjust potentiometer marked vector shift / df/dt, so that an opening signal is
transmitted to the mains circuit breaker at a load variation of 5…10%.
b. Generators of a co-generation plant, supplying all their power to the mains
(change of generator load is only with difficulty simulated)
1. Set potentiometer marked vector shift / df/dt to 5/1.5
2. If necessary, adjust this on the basis of practical experience.
