Carlo Gavazzi DPB01CM44 3-Phase Voltage Monitoring Relay

Description

Phase loss, phase sequence and voltage monitoring in a 22.5 mm relay

The Carlo Gavazzi DPB01CM44 is a True RMS three-phase monitoring relay that watches phase loss, phase sequence, overvoltage and undervoltage on three-wire (3P) or four-wire (3P+N) systems from 208 to 480 V line-to-line. It draws its own supply from the monitored phases, so no separate auxiliary voltage is needed, and it switches a single changeover (SPDT) relay output that de-energises on alarm.

The M44 version is the wide-range member of the DPB01 family: one device covers eight nominal voltages from 208 to 480 V and, unlike the M23 and M48 versions, a frequency range of 50 to 400 Hz. The setpoints are adjusted with front dials and the alarm delay can be set from 0.1 to 30 seconds.

Setting the relay for a real installation

Start with the DIP switches: they select the power ON delay (1 or 6 seconds), whether the system is 3P or 3P+N, and which of the eight nominal voltages applies. Then set the undervoltage and overvoltage dials as percentages of that nominal value and choose an alarm delay long enough to ignore short sags from motor starting. Phase loss and wrong phase sequence trip immediately, without the delay. Connect the neutral only if it is genuinely at the star centre, and fit 315 mA delayed fuses if local rules require them.

Where it is typically fitted

Three-phase monitoring relays protect motors, pumps, compressors and rotating machines from reverse rotation, single-phasing and damaging voltage excursions. Wire the SPDT output into the contactor coil circuit or the PLC safety input so that an alarm drops the machine out. The wide 50 to 400 Hz capability of the M44 version also suits installations on non-standard supplies, but confirm the actual supply frequency against the datasheet before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the DPB01CM44 monitor?
Phase loss, phase sequence, overvoltage and undervoltage on 3-phase mains with 3 or 4 wires.
