SEL-2414
Transformer Monitor
- The SEL-2414 Transformer Monitor is a comprehensive solution designed to protect and manage the life of critical substation transformers. It integrates real-time monitoring, control, and protection into a single compact package. By utilizing IEEE and IEC thermal models, it tracks transformer degradation and maximizes asset reliability through efficient cooling system control and Load Tap Changer (LTC) monitoring.
Key Features
-
Thermal Model Monitoring
Precisely tracks transformer winding hot-spot and top-oil temperatures using standard IEEE or IEC models to safeguard equipment from overheating. -
Through-Fault Detection
Records the frequency and intensity of through-fault currents to analyze cumulative mechanical and thermal stress, helping to predict the remaining life of the transformer. -
Cooling System Control
Automatically manages cooling fan and pump stages based on load and temperature, minimizing thermal wear and improving energy efficiency. -
LTC Monitoring
Monitors tap positions and operational status to ensure voltage stability and verify the mechanical integrity of the load tap changer. -
Flexible I/O Options
Supports up to 10 RTD or thermocouple inputs and offers various digital/analog I/O options for configurations tailored to specific applications. -
Powerful Automation Logic
Uses SELOGIC control equations to implement complex control schemes and facilitate integration into plant automation systems.
Convenience features
-
Versatile HMI Displays
Offers a choice between a color touchscreen or a standard LCD model, with front-panel buttons and LEDs for intuitive local monitoring of metering and device status. -
Extensive Standard Protocols
Supports a wide range of industry protocols, including IEC 61850 Edition 2, DNP3 (Serial and LAN/WAN), Modbus TCP/RTU, PRP, and RSTP, for seamless integration with SCADA or DCS. -
Redundant Communications
Provides single or dual Ethernet ports (copper or fiber) and multiple serial ports to support high-reliability network architectures. -
Compact Design and Flexible Installation
Designed with a small footprint for easy installation in space-constrained cabinets, with options for panel or surface mounting. -
Precise Event Recording
Facilitates rapid root-cause analysis with high-resolution Sequential Events Recorder (SER) and event reporting capabilities.
