VAMP 57

Schneider Electric’s VAMP 57 protection relay is highly flexible and meets the protection and control needs of a number of power systems, from simple overcurrent, to busbar voltage, feeder management and motor protection. Featuring IEC 61850 the VAMP 57 is designed around proven Vamp technology concepts and developed in close cooperation with customers, making it both reliable and modern. VAMP 57 also introduces a complete set of measurement functions including line and residual currents, current imbalance, system frequency and harmonics, replacing conventional metering functions in switchgear and controlgear installations. User-friendliness is a designed-in feature of VAMP products and the VAMP 57 series is no exception with a eight row LCD display for alarms, events and single line mimic, customisable alarm facia, programmable function keys and easy-to-use free VAMPSET software. -

VAMP 57 for low and medium voltage feeders in industrial or utility applications. Extensive thermal protection functions make this relay optimal for low and medium-sized asynchronous motors too. In feeder configuration mode, autoreclose and directional over current elements are also available. Voltage, frequency, capacitor bank and synchro check stages extend use of VAMP 57 in various applications.
