2. Product Description
2.1 General Function
The ZM – 16 – PKZ2 is a self – protected combination controller module designed specifically for motor protection. Its primary function is to safeguard motors from various electrical faults, ensuring their safe and efficient operation. In industrial settings where motors are used to power a wide range of machinery, from conveyor belts in manufacturing plants to pumps in water treatment facilities, the ZM – 16 – PKZ2 plays a crucial role in preventing motor damage and potential production disruptions.
2.2 Key Features
- Over – Current and Short – Circuit Protection: Each ZM – 16 – PKZ2 trip module is equipped with a coordinated, independently adjustable over – current trip mechanism (represented by a yellow dial). This is mainly for overload protection, with a range of 0.6 – 1.0 x the rated motor current (Iu). Additionally, there is an adjustable, instantaneous magnetic trip (red dial) for short – circuit protection, which can be set in the range of 8.5 – 14 x Iu. These adjustable settings allow for customization according to the specific requirements of different motors, making it suitable for installations with motors of varying efficiencies.
