How to Select the Appropriate Basler Electric BE1-50/51B Model

Online, December 10, 2009 (Newswire.com) - Basler Electric produces a number of "equivalent" time overcurrent relays designed to replace existing GE-type IAC and Westinghouse-type CO time overcurrent relays. The BE1-50/51B relays provide a more versatile product than the ones to be replaced, because of the combination of connections, time overcurrent ranges, time characteristic and instantaneous overcurrent ranges available.

Basler's latest Application Note PC-5051B02, explains how to select the appropriate BE1-50/51B model for IAC or CO replacement. It includes a table of the most popular IAC and CO characteristics and their equivalent BE1-50/51B characteristic switch selection position, as well as information on time overcurrent settings, reset characteristics, instantaneous overcurrent settings, connections, and case sizes.
