D1000 Series -
Arc Protection
In case of an arc flash fault, the D1000 detects and generates a tripping pulse in less than 1 millisecond. This tripping pulse is taken to the circuit breaker(s) that controls the supply to the installation. The total arcing time is thus reduced to the mechanical opening time of the circuit breaker, which is typical around 30-100 milliseconds. If even shorter arcing time is required, the D1000 can control arc quenching devices as well as breakers, limiting the arc time to less than 2 ms.
The trip circuit is based on a solid state semiconductor switch (IGBT), which provides both fast reaction as well as drive capability for even the largest circuit breakers.
