1. The power supply must be switched off prior to any

intervention in the electrical or mechanical part of the

!
equipment!
2. In accordance with the applicable rules, work on
electrical equipment or means of production may only
be carried out by competent electricians or suitably
trained persons guided and supervised by a competent
electrician.
3. The electrical equipment of a machine / plant must be
inspected / tested. Deficiencies such as loose
connections or scorched cables must be eliminated
immediately.

4. The discribed control- and protection system CET 4

!
features supervision and protection functions which
can switch the devices of automatically and thereby
bring motors to standstill. Motors can be brought to
standstill also by mechanical blockage. Furthermore,
mains failures and voltage fluctuations can also cause
switching off.
5. In case of fuctional disturbances the machine / plant
must be switched off and protected immediately! The
elimination of disturbances must be organized without
delay!
6. The elimination of a disturbance may cause the motor
to start running again by itself. This may endanger
persons or damage equipment. The user is obliged to
take the necessary safety measures against this type of
occurrence so that any danger is precluded.
7. Sufficient safety distance to the CET 4 must be
maintained where wireless equipment (walkie-talkies,
cordless and mobile phones) is used.

1.2 Why Have an The need to optimize production facilities requires

Electronic Control enhanced control, monitoring, and protection systems.
and Protection On the one hand, motors and installations must be utilized
System? to a maximum; on the other, idle times required for
maintenance and caused by motor failures must be
minimized. Such stringent demands are ideally satisfied
by the microprocessor-based CET 4 control and protection
system.

The CET 4 has a modular design and is easily

programmed. Its attributes enable an optimum fit to a wide
variety of motor and installation requirements.

The CET 4 provides continuous monitoring of motor

operating data in either of two ways. The data can be
viewed directly on the CET 4, or it can be monitored
remotely via a network, utilizing a PC or process computer.
Likewise, the main statistical data can be accessed at any
time.

1.3 Operational 1.3.1 Temperature Rise

Demands of the Motor designs and applicable standards require that when
a motor is operated under specified loads and ambient
Motor/Drive conditions, the critical parts of the motor will remain
within an allowable temperature range, and short-term
overloads will not harm the motor.

The device protecting the motor must permit full

utilization of the motor and therefore its economical
operation. At the same time, the protective device must
switch off rapidly if an overload occurs.

1.3.2 Motor Operating Characteristics

Electric motors absorb electrical energy and supply
mechanical energy. During this energy conversion, losses
are produced in the form of heat. The total loss comprises
the following separate losses:
• Losses independent of the current
-Iron losses caused by remagnetization and eddy
currents
-Mechanical losses caused by friction and ventilation
These losses are virtually constant, i.e., they also occur at
no load.

1-2 Publication 25.610.910.-02 EN Rockwell Automation

 Chapter 1 Introduction
• Losses dependent on the current
-Heat losses caused by the current in the stator
-Heat losses caused by the current in the rotor
These losses increase with load, i.e., with the current
consumed by the motor.
• Increased temperature rise caused by poor cooling
-Cooling fins are dusty or damaged
-Coolant temperature is too high

Operating characteristics of an AC motor as a function of load. Between no load and half load, the losses increase
only slightly with rising load. Between half load and rated load, the change in efficiency is minimal, and the power
factor approaches its maximum. The losses increase approximately proportional to the load. Above rated load, the
losses increase more rapidly than the load.

1.3.3 Current and Temperature Curves

The power losses are approximately proportional to the
square of the motor current. The potential for motor
hazards exists mainly during starting and during locked
rotor condition. With locked rotor, the maximum value of
the starting current flows (approximately 4 ... 8 times rated
service current, Ie), and all the power absorbed is converted

Rockwell Automation Publication 25.610.910-02 EN 1-3

Chapter 1 Introduction
into heat. As the motor speed increases, the power
converted into heat decreases. But if the rotor remains
locked, the temperature of the stator and rotor windings
rises considerably, specifically caused by the high losses
and the short time that heat can flow into the laminated
core. If the motor is not switched off quickly, the stator or
rotor winding can burn out.

After start-up, the temperature of the winding rises

according to the load and cooling of the motor. In time,
the winding reaches its steady-state value.
A high current results in a correspondingly high operating
temperature.

Oscillogram of switching on a cage induction motor by direct-on-line

starting. The high motor starting current IA flows during the starting
time (tA). If this is less than the limit specified by the manufacturer
(usually 10 sec.), the starting current does not cause any excessive
temperature rise. The brief, asymmetrical peak when switching on can
be ignored.

Motors are not thermally homogeneous. The winding,

stator iron, and rotor have different heat capacities and
conductivities. Following unduly heavy loads, e.g., during
starting, temperature equalization occurs between the
various parts of the machine. Most importantly, heat flows
from the warmer winding into the cooler iron until the
temperature difference is minimal.

Temperature rise in a motor winding. During the starting time (tA), the
temperature of the winding rises very rapidly; at the end of start-up,
the temperature drops temporarily because heat is transferred to the
laminated core.

1.3.4 Limiting Temperatures, Insulation

Classes
The permissible temperature limit for a winding – and thus
the load-bearing – capacity of the motor is primarily a
function of the motor's insulation. Applicable standards
(UL, CSA, IEC, and NEMA) distinguish between different
classes of insulation and corresponding temperature limits.

1.3.4.1 Insulation Aging

The aging of insulation material is a chemical process that
is accelerated by continuous overtemperature. It may be
assumed that a winding temperature that is constantly
10 K higher than the temperature limit reduces the motor
life by half. This "life law" shows that particular attention
must be paid to adhering to the permitted operating
temperature for long periods of time. (Note that
overtemperatures of short duration and infrequent
occurence do not seriously affect the life of the machine.)

The CET 4's ability to accurately limit excessive current

conditions greatly aids in extending motor life. In practice,
it may be expected that there will be reduced loads and
pauses, so that when the temperature limit is reached, the
life will not be impaired.

1.3.4.2 Rotor Temperature

The rotors of cage induction motors with simple
construction (no insulation) may continuously attain
higher temperatures than motors with insulated windings.
However, in larger motors, the concentration of the rotor
losses during starting is higher than in other parts. The
starting time of such motors is therefore limited by the
thermal capacity of the rotor. These types of motors are
commonly referred to as "rotor-critical" motors. Critical
to the rotor are the mechanical stresses caused by the
temperature rise, unsoldering of the rotor bars, and, for
EExe motors (motors for use in the chemical industry), the
high temperature as a source of ignition.

1.4 Operational Monitoring application parameters and process data of an

Requirements for installation can be very important. Even slight change in
the starting and operating behavior of the motor can
the Installation indicate impending fault. The CET 4 helps eliminate the
potential trouble before major repairs are necessary and
loss of production occurs.

The CET 4 fulfils these requirements by providing the

following protective functions:
• high overload, stalling and jam
• underloading
• wrong direction of rotation

1-6 Publication 25.610.910.-02 EN Rockwell Automation

 Chapter 1 Introduction
1.5 Personnel and Personnel protection in the the vicinity of control
Installation Safety equipment is of primary importance. The corresponding
requirements of regulatory agencies are therefore
becoming increasingly severe. The CET 4 reflects this by
providing the following protection:
• Equipment construction
-Touch protection
-Insulated housing
• Motor protective functions:
-Earth (ground) fault
-High overload, stalling and jam
-Wrong direction of rotation

1.6 CET 4 as an The CET 4 electronic control and protection system detects
Automation abnormal operating condition and faults in a motor branch
circuit. The data made available by the CET 4 can be used
Component for operational control and optimization of the installation.

A large number of supervisory, protective, and control

functions improve operational control and avoid
unnecessary down-time. This maximizes your motor
investment, making the CET 4 a valuable component of
modern automation systems.

2.4.10 Short-circuit Protection

Choosing a circuit-breaker or fuse and associated contactor
The branch circuit short-circuit protective device series
(circuit-breaker or fuse) must, on the one hand, assure that
the motor can start and, on the other, interrupt short-circuit
currents rapidly enough to prevent damage to the
installation. For the latter reason the fuse rating should be
as low as possible.

The lowest possible fuse rating depends on the starting

current of the motor and the tripping time set on the CET 4.

The short-circuit coordination of the starter must allways be

taken into account.
The contactor receives its tripping signal when the CET 4
trips and must interrupt all currents up to the point of
intersection of the time / current characteristics of the
CET 4 and the circuit-breaker or fuse.

2-10 Publication 825-5.025.610.910-02

 Chapter 2 Description of the Equipment
When starting large motors, the main contacts on the
contactor are subjected to high thermal loads so that if the
motor starting time exceeds a certain limit, the maximum
permissible current has to be reduced.

The rating of the fuse or contactor must also allow for the
prospective short-circuit current. The CWE 4 converter
modules are short-circuit proof.

The coordination (grading) diagrams for contactors are

available on request.

3.4 Functions of the 3.4.1 Thermal Overload

Basic Unit CET 4 The CET 4 accurately simulates thermal conditions in the
motor for all operating modes. This permits maximum
utilization of an installation and assures safe protection of
the motor.

Specifically, a two-body simulation is utilized. The

simulation accounts for the temperature rise of both the
stator winding and the iron mass of the motor. For
example, the rapid rise in temperature of the winding
during a heavy start is simulated just as correctly as the
subsequent transfer of heat to the iron, which heats up
much slowlier.

Rockwell Automation Publication 25.610.910-02 EN 3-15

Chapter 3 Functions
The simulation of the Smart Motor Manager truly
represents the conditions in the motor at all times.

While the motor is running, the iron losses as well as losses

caused by asymmetry are fed to the simulation model.
Allowance for the ambient temperature of the motor, as an
option, enhances the maximum utilization of the
installation even with considerable variation of the
temperature. The different cooling conditions of a self-
ventilated motor when running and at standstill are taken
into account by two different time constants. After
switching off, the rapid cooling of the winding to the iron
temperature and the subsequent slow cooling of the motor
as a whole are simulated.

The two-body simulation can be represented as a

capacitance- resistance network, as shown in Figure 3.7.

 Chapter 3 Functions
3.4.2 Adjustable Ratio of Cooling Constants
The ratio of the cooling constant when the motor is at
standstill to the cooling constant when it is running, allows
for the difference in cooling in these states. The cooling
constant ratio is set to 2.5 in the factory. This value has
been found to be correct for the majority of AC motors that
are self-cooled.

For separately ventilated and special motors, and above all

those which respond very quickly or very slowly, you may
have to modify the cooling factor.

3.4.3 Indication of the Time to Tripping

LCD:
TRIP IN ... sec

This feature provides continuous indication of the time

remaining before tripping when in an overload condition.
This enables you to intervene before tripping occurs.
(No seconds-display means: Time > 10 000 sec.).

3.4.4 Indication of the Time until the Thermal

Trip can be Reset
LCD:
RESET IN ... sec

Following a thermal trip, the CET 4 may not be reset until

the reset threshold has been reached. This is set to a
temperature rise of 50 % in the factory.

3.4.5 Adjustable Setting Characteristic

The degree of inertia can be set to match the properties of
the motor. A suitable reference value, among others, is the
admissible locked-rotor time of the cold motor in
conjunction with the associated current. This makes it
possible to protect motors that are thermally very fast or

The thermal capacity of the iron is particularly important

at small overloads. Allowing for this in the simulation
enables the overload reserves of the motor to be utilized

3.4.7 Asymmetry (Phase Unbalance) and
Phase Failure
Asymmetrical phase voltages usually occur when the
mains leads are too long. The resulting current asymmetry
in the motor windings may then be 6 to 10 times the voltage
asymmetry. The CET 4 takes into account the additional
temperature rise and thus prevents the life of the motor
from being reduced. Higher asymmetry, or the failure of
a phase, can be caused by defective contacts in circuit
breakers or contactors, loose terminals, blown fuses, and
faults in the motor itself. Rapid detection and interruption
of these help to prevent damage caused by overheating in
such equipment. The stress on the installation and the
motor bearings is reduced.

3.4.8 High Overload and Jam

When an overload is excessively high and the motor jams,
unnecessary mechanical and thermal loading of the motor
and transmission elements can be avoided by switching
the motor off immediately. This reduces consequences of
accident and loss of production. A gradually approaching
overstress can be detected in good time and reported (e.g.,
bearing damage). The protective function activates as
soon as the motor has started.

3.4.9 Underload
Motors that are cooled by the medium handled (e.g., fans,
submersible pumps) can become overheated despite being
underloaded. This can be a result of the absence of the
medium or insufficient medium (due to clogged filters,
closed valves, etc.). Often these motors are installed in
inaccessible places, so repair is lengthy and expensive.

The consumption of less than a definite amount of current

may indicate a mechanical defect in the installation (torn
conveyor belt, damaged fan blades, broken shafts or worn
tools). Such conditions do not harm the motor, but they
do lead to loss of production. Rapid fault detection helps
to minimize damage.

The underload protection trip time can be delayed

following each start, so as to prevent tripping, provided
e.g. a valve has to be kept closed. The warning is actuated
as soon as the underload threshold is reached.

3.4.10 Earth (Ground) Fault
The insulation in motors is often damaged by high-voltage
surges, which may be caused by lightning strikes,
switching operations in the network, capacitor discharges
and power electronics equipment. Other causes are aging
and sustained or cyclic overloading, as well as mechanical
vibration and the entry of foreign objects. Most insulation
faults result in leakage to the grounded parts of the
machine. In earthed networks, the fault current can rapidly
rise to a very high value. Depending on the type of network
and its requirements, monitoring of earth (ground) faults
is performed either by the Holmgreen- = Residual- method
or by using a core balance transformer.

3.4.10.1 Earth (Ground) Fault Protection by the Holmgreen

Method = Residual Method
(Solidly Earthed Networks)
To detect an earth (ground) fault current in either a solidly
earthed network or one that is earthed through a low
impedance, the currents in the three pole conductors are
measured. In a "healthy" motor, this sum is zero. If a
current is flowing to the frame of the motor, and thus to
earth, a neutral current I0, proportional to the fault current,
is produced at the neutral of the c.t. This neutral current
is detected by the earth (ground) fault detector and causes
a trip. A brief delay helps to avoid nuisance trips caused
by transient c.t. saturation, which can be caused by
switching operations. The sensitivity has to be such that
neither transformation errors in the c.t. nor disturbance
signals in star-delta (wye-delta) connections caused by the
third harmonic cause nuisance tripping.

This function can be provided by the CST 4 option card.

In isolated, high impedance-earthed or compensated

networks, the necessary high sensitivity is obtained by
using a core balance c.t., whose core surrounds all three of

According to the principle of the residual current
protection circuit breaker, sensitive protection against

threshold quite a minor insulation fault can lead to a
warning or trip at an early stage.

3.4.10.3 Earth (Ground) Fault Protection in High-voltage

Systems
This subsection provides an overview of earth (ground)
faults in isolated, high-impedance earth or compensated
networks.

With networks of the mentioned earth neutral point types,

the magnitude of the earth (ground) fault (leak) current is
determined by the earth capacitance of the network and the
earth resistance or the compensating reactor. Because the
size of industrial networks is limited, earth fault currents
are very small. To a great extent, earth capacitances are
determined by the cables and the motors.

The capacitance values for cables are given in cable tables

and are of the order of 0.2 ... 1.2 μF per km. A value
between 0.02 ... 0.05 μF per MW of motor rating can be
assumed for high-voltage motors.

A rule of thumb for industrial medium voltage networks

is to allow about 1 A of capacitive earth current for every
1 000 ... 1 500 kVA of system power. Usually, a single
neutral point is monitored for the entire network by
measuring the displacement voltage.

3-28 Publication25.610.910-02 EN Rockwell Automation

 Chapter 3 Functions
The earth (ground) fault is localized by using an earth
(ground) fault current detector such as the CET 4 Motor
Protection System with earth (ground) fault protection in
the motor feeders. Often, operation can continue since the
earth currents are comparatively insignificant and the
insulation of the non-faulty phases can be operated at a
higher voltage for a short period of time.

3.4.10.4 Isolated or High-impedance Earth Networks

In the case of earth capacitances, the neutral point of the
network assumes earth potential and the sum of the
currents flowing through the earth capacitances is zero.
Also, no current flows in normal operation in the high-
value earth resistor (Figures 3.15, 3.17, and 3.19) in the
case of transformer with neutral point. It avoids extreme
overvoltages in the event of intermittent earth faults, such
as can occur in isolated networks.

If, for example, phase conductor 3 (Figures 3.14 and 3.16)

becomes connected to earth due to an earth fault, the two
other phase conductors carry a line-to-line voltage with
respect to earth. Through their earth capacitances, CN (on
the power supply side as seen from the CET 4 ) and CM
(on motor side), a capacitive current flows toward earth
and back to phase conductor 3 through the fault location.
In the case of high-impedance earthing (Figures 3.15, 3.17,
and 3.19), the neutral point voltage, now at a high value,
causes an additional current, that is limited by the earthing
resistor through the fault location.

In the event of an earth fault on the power supply side of

the measuring location (current transformer installation
location), the CET 4 measures the component of the earth
current flowing via CM. The response sensitivity must be
selected such that in this case, the CET 4 does not trip. On
the other hand, earth fault detection by the CET 4 should
be as sensitive as possible since in the case of earth faults
in the motor windings, the displacement voltage becomes
smaller the closer the fault location is to the neutral point.
The fault current decreases proportionally. Normally, a
response threshold is selected that is greater than
5 ... 10 % of the current that flows in the event of a dead
earth fault at the motor terminals.

3.4.10.5 Neutralized Networks
Systems with earth fault neutralizers, resonant-earth
system, Petersen coil. Although compensated industrial
networks are rare, their main features are shown in Figures
3.15, 3.17, and 3.19. Under fully-compensated conditions,
the compensation reactor supplies a current of the same
magnitude as that of the capacitive fault current but phase
shifted by 180° so that only a small ohmic residual current
flows via the fault location.

3.4.10.6 Schematic Representation of Various Network

Configurations and Earth (Ground) Fault Locations
The earth (ground) fault current measured by the CET 4
electronic motor protection unit with the aid of core
balance current transformer is dependent on the power
supply network configuration and on the location of the
earth fault. The following diagrams indicate the
relationships in the various applications.

Chapter 3 Functions
Note: Independently of the limited number of starts per
hour, the motor is protected thermally. Hence,
another start depends on the thermal reserve of the
motor.

3.4.12 Monitoring the Starting Time

Function
The starting time of the motor is monitored. If starting has
not finished by the set time, the installation can be switched
off.
This monitoring is independent of the thermal state of the

The beginning of a start is recognized by the CET 4, as
such when the motor current reaches 1.2 Ie. Starting is
deemed to have been completed when the motor current is
less than 1.1 Ie.

Applications
• Installations in which an elevated load or stalling of
the drive have to be detected during the starting stage,
in order to avoid serious damage. Possible causes:
overloaded installation, defective bearings, or

speed switch (function "stalling during starting").

3.4.13 Warm Start

Function
The motor windings may be heated for a short time above
the permissible temperature limit. This applies
particularly to rotor-critical motors. The temperature that
is permitted for this short period is approximately 250 °C
and is thus appreciably higher than the continuous
operating temperature of 100 ... 150 °C. This means that
a motor warm from running has a relatively long
permissible starting time. This property of the motor can
be utilized with the CET 4. The CET 4 is factory-set for
one warm start per hour. The tripping time is then 70 %
of that from cold. The function warm start is switched off
in the factory. As additional protection for the motor, too
many warm starts can be prevented by the function
"limiting the number of starts per hour."

3.5 Function of the 3.5.1 Short-circuit

CST 4 Option Card Heavy phase currents caused by short circuits between
phases and from phase to earth are detected by the CET 4
option card. The supply can be interrupted immediately
by controlling the power switching device (e.g., circuit-
breaker).

Rockwell Automation Publication 25.610.910-02 EN 3-41

Chapter 3 Functions
Short-circuit protection is always active. Therefore, the
response level must be set somewhat higher than the
maximum starting current.

Tripping is delayed by 50 ms. On the one hand, this enables

the circuit breaker to be actuated rapidly, while on the
other, unnecessary tripping by current peaks is prevented.
In the event of a short-circuit, the separate output relay #1
(CST 4) trips, regardless of the other protective functions.
The output relay #1 actuates a circuit breaker with
adequate breaking capacity. To prevent the contactor from
opening under short-circuit conditions, relay MR remains
blocked at currents ≥ 12 Ie. If a thermal trip occurred
shortly before the short circuit, relay MR assumes the
tripped position as soon as the current has dropped to
< 12 Ie.

3.5.3 Stalling During Start

Function
If the motor stalls during the starting phase, the motor heats
up very rapidly, and after the permissible stalling time,
reaches the temperature limit of the insulation. Large, low-
voltage motors, and especially medium/high voltage
motors often have short, admissible stalling times,
although their starts may be considerably longer.
Accordingly, the permissible stalling time must be set
higher on the CET 4. With an external speedometer or zero
speed switch, the CET 4 recognizes that stalling has
occurred during starting, and it switches the motor off
immediately. Thus, the motor and the driven installation
is not exposed to unnecessary or inadmissible stress from
stalling.

temperature rise of the machine, the load on the
installation can be continuously controlled to the
maximum permissible temperature rise of the motor.
The result is optimal utilization of the motor with full
protection and maximum productivity of the driven
installation.
• Automatic load control by a controller or inverter

Lock-out of Protection Functions

With control inputs #1 and #2, one or more protective
functions can be locked out as desired.
• Asymmetry (phase unbalance)
• High overload/jam
• Earth (ground) fault
• Short-circuit
• Underload
• Limiting the number of starts/hour
• PTC
• PT100 (RTD)

Rockwell Automation Publication 25.610.910-02 EN 3-49

Chapter 3 Functions
Applications
Lock-out of protection functions
• During certain operational phases when the level
differs from the normal values, such as:
-during starting: earth fault and short-circuit
protection
-at no-load: protection against asymmetry and
underload
-during brief overload phases: high overload/jam
-during commissioning and fault location (localizing
the source of the trouble)

The selected functions are completely disabled as long as

the control input is "on" (24 VAC/DC).
• No alarm
• No trip, no reset
• Tripping delays begin to run only after the function is
re-enabled.

3.5.7 Switching to a Second Rated Current

In the CET 4, a second value can be selected for the rated
current Ie. The change to the second rated value is
controlled by activating control input #2 with 24 VAC/DC.
Make sure the second rated current is compatible with the
current range of the CWE 4 current converter module.

Application
• Two-speed motors
• Briefly increased loading of the motor and installation
• Maximum loading when the ambient temperature
varies appreciably. Examples: Exposed water pumps,
different conveying capacitie during daytime and at
night.

construction machines)
• Installations that can be displaced as enclosed units
(e.g., mobile crushers, conveyor belts, saws)
• A reversed phase sequence must be expected after a

3.6.3 Star-Delta (Wye-Delta) Starting

The CET 4 issues the command to switch from star to delta
(wye to delta) as soon as the starting current has dropped
to the rated value and thus the motor has reached its normal
speed in star (wye). If starting has not been completed
within the normal time for this application [max. star (wye)
operation], a change to delta will be made, regardless of
the speed attained.

The permissible time for star (wye) operation can be

switched on or off as desired. If it is off, the change to
delta is made solely with reference to the motor current.
If the motor has to be switched off when the normal starting
time in star (wye) is exceeded, the function "monitoring
starting time" must also be activated (see page 3-34).

4.3 Installation and 4.3.1 General
Wiring The CET 4 electronic motor protection device fulfills the
stringent requirements imposed by global standards
requirements regarding electromagnetic compatibility
(EMC). This means that there is no need to observe any
special stipulations when wiring the CET 4.

Nevertheless, control leads should be laid separately from

power leads. In the circuit diagrams throughout this
section, any special wiring requirements are specifically
noted.

The data of the output circuits and control inputs are dealt
with in Chapter 2, Technical Data. Throughout this
manual, the contacts of the output relays are shown in their
normal working position (i.e., the CET 4 control voltage
is switched on, no warning, no trip).

ATTENTION: All assembly and installation work

!
must be performed by qualified personnel, taking

Careful, correct commissioning of the CET 4 is an

important prerequisite for reliable protection of the motor
and economic operation of the installation. Follow the
procedures in this section to ensure that programming and
set-up are correct.

ATTENTION: Checking and commissioning must

! be carried out only by qualified personnel.

6.2 Checking the

ATTENTION: Disconnect the main switch and iso-

! late the control circuit.

• CWE 4 Current Converter

-Verify that its current range lies within the full load
or the service current
• Primary Current Transformer (if used)
-The transformer rating must be greater or equal to
the full load or the service current.
-The current ratio must be ... A /1A or ... A / 5A for
use with current converter CWE 4-2.5 or
CWE 4-20, respectivly.

Rockwell Automation Publication 25.610.910-02 EN 6-1

Chapter 6 Commissioning and Operation
• Core balance transformer
-Verify that the output current of the core balance
transformer is 5 ... 500 mA for the alarm or trip
signal.
• CET 4
-Verify that the power supply voltage has been prop-
erly selected for the control circuit voltage.
-Verify that the appropriate option cards have been
installed.
-Verify that the indication meter (if required) is con-
nected.

6.2.1 Checking the Wiring

• Primary current transformer, core balance
transformers
• CWE 4
• CET 4
• Link between CET 4 and
CWE 4
• Inputs, outputs

6-2 Publication 25.610.910-02 EN Rockwell Automation

 Chapter 6 Commissioning and Operation
Access the parameters (or print them out) and compare
them with the set values in the list of settings. The main
settings are:
• Rated or service current
• Locked-rotor or starting current
• Permissible locked-rotor time
These three settings must be made individually for each
motor. See page 5-2, Setting the Operational Parameters,
for procedure.

6.3.3 Motor Current

• Ensure that the CET 4 rated current in amperes is
equal to the ampere rating on the nameplate of the
motor.
• Set the CET 4 rated current based on the service
current of the motor, if the installation or motor
nameplate current is not known.
1. Set the motor current approximately 10 ... 20 % higher
than the assumed service current.
2. With the installation running normally, read the motor
current on the LCD.
3. Set the CET 4 to the service current reading.

Example

• Setting locked rotor time to a minimum level.

This procedure enables you to set the locked rotor
time to a minimum, so that the motor and installation
are better protected.
1. Choose a locked rotor time that is less than the
probable starting time (e.g., 2 sec. for thermally rapid
underwater motors).
2. Start the motor and allow it to cool down after a thermal
trip.
3. Increase the locked-rotor time until starting succeeds
reliably.

• Setting the locked rotor time when the motor starting

time is known:

Example:
Known starting time of the motor is tA = 15 sec.
Locked-rotor time to be set:
tA 15

7.2 General The correct functioning of the CET 4 can be checked by

several methods, depending on the requirements:
• With the <Test> button
• With the test condition set
• With a single- or three-phase current source

A test may be beneficial:

• during commissioning
• following an interruption in operation
• following overhauls
• following reconstruction of the installation
After a test is conducted, the display provides information
on the running time of the CET 4 and the motor, the number
of operations performed by the motor, the contactor, etc.
From this information, necessary maintenances and
replacements in the installation can be derived.

7.3 Checking without 7.3.1 Functional Check with the <Test> Button
Test Equipment With the motor at standstill, the functions of the thermal
protection, all alarms, trips, and tripping times can be
checked with the aid of the <Test> button. See page 3-10
for the specific procedures.

7.3.2 Indication of Recorded Values

All important statistical data can be read on the LCD of
the CET 4. See page 3-9 for procedure.

Rockwell Automation Publication 25.610.910-02 EN 7-1

Chapter 7 Testing and Maintenance
From the recorded values, data can be used to determine:
• Running time of the motor, the CET 4, contactor, etc.
• Necessary service jobs
• Operational behavior of motor and installation
• Causes shortly before tripping and the moment of
tripping
• Misuse information, such as too many emergency
starts, etc.

7.4 Checking with Test A complete check of the CET 4 components can be
Equipment performed with the CET 4 test unit and a three-phase
current source.

7.4.1 CET 4 Test Unit

With the test unit, all protective functions set on the
CET 4 Motor Protection System can be checked, including
the pickup levels and tripping delays.

Test with Three-phase Current Source

ATTENTION: This test should be performed only

! by qualified personnel.

Using a three-phase current source, the main circuit, any

primary current transformer, and the current detection
module, CWE 4 can be tested.

Because the functions of the CET 4 have already been

checked with the test unit, it is sufficient to supply a current
of 1 x Ie. As an alternative, you can measure the three
phase currents exactly and compare the readings with the
values indicated by the LCD on the CET 4.

8.2 Alarm, Warning If an impending defect is detected early enough, motor

damage can be minimized.
• Lower repair costs
• Less downtime (increased productivity)
Alarm thresholds can be set for:
• Thermal utilization of the motor
• Overcurrent
• Asymmetry
• Underload
• Earth (ground) fault with core balance transformer
• Stator and bearing temperature with PT100
When the alarm threshold is reached, the LED flashes, the
LCD indicates the type of alarm, and the selected output
relay picks up.

• If the warning level continues to rise, measures should
be taken so that the installation can be shut down
soon.
• If the alarm level remains steady in the region of the
set warning threshold, it is permissible to wait with
fault location and repair until the next planned
interruption in operation.

8.3.2 Procedure if "WARNING" does not reset

Indication
• LCD
Does not display the type of the Warning (LCD
active)
• Red LED
Flashing

Cause for this Condition

If the affected alarm function is switched "OFF" before the
alarm has disappeared or the motor has been switched off,
then the alarm stays on whether the motor is switched on
or off.

Rockwell Automation Publication 25.610.910-02 EN 8-9

Chapter 8 Error Diagnosis and Troubleshooting
How to get rid of Warning ?
• Go to "SET VALUES" mode.
• Switch on all Alarm Functions
e.g. "THERMAL WARNING" "ON".
• As soon as the affected Warning Function is switched
on again, then the Warning condition will disappear.
• Switch Warning Function off, if not required

8.3.3 Procedure if "TRIP" can not be reset

There are two reasons why a trip can not be reset if the
motor is not running.

a). Thermal Trip

Indication
• LCD
"THERMAL TRIP"
• Red LED
On

How to Reset ?
The motor must have cooled down to the pre-set level,
before the reset is possible:

"TH RESET LEVEL" Setting Range 10 ... 100 %

Factory Setting 50 %.

b). Other Trips

Indication
• LCD
Does not display the type of the trip (LCD active)
• Red LED
ON

8-10 Publication 25.610.910-02 EN Rockwell Automation

 Chapter 8 Error Diagnosis and Troubleshooting
Cause for this Condition
If the tripped protection function has been switched "OFF",
before the trip has been reset, then the trip can not be reset
the normal way.

How to Reset ?
• Go to "RECORDED VALUES" mode
• Go to "CAUSE LAST TRIP"
e.g.. "ASYMMETRY TRIP"
• Go to "SET VALUES" mode
• Go to tripped Protection Function
e.g. "ASYMMETRY TRIP"
• Switch Protection Function on
e.g. "ASYMMETRY TRIP" "ON"
• Reset Trip
Red LED goes off
• Switch Protection Function off, if not required
