PSS 212 relays are designed for overcurrent and earth fault protection in medium and high voltage electrical systems. These relays can function as either main or backup protection. Notably, they operate without requiring any external auxiliary supply.

Key features of the EKOSsr 50 relay include:

  1. Self-Powered or Dual-Powered Versions: The EKOSsr 50 can be ordered in either self-powered or dual-powered configurations.

  2. Manual Configuration: It can be fully configured manually, eliminating the need for setting software.

  3. Customization via USB: The EKOSsr 50 setting software allows customization of configuration parameters via a USB port.

  4. Additional Functions: The relay offers measurement, monitoring, and recording functions accessible via the communication port.

  5. Capacitance Discharge Output: Capable of providing sufficient power to a low-energy trip coil of a circuit breaker.

  6. Flag Indicator: An external flag indicator indicates whether a trip event has occurred.

  7. Rear RS485 Port: Allows control of the circuit breaker (with close and trip commands).

  8. Flexible Mounting Options: Housed in an optional flush or wall-mounting metal case, it can be easily adapted to various applications.
