- Time Synchronization: IRIG‑B code time synchronization, SNTP network time synchronization.
- Supports external printer for outputting protection settings, event reports and fault recording files.
Product Introduction
- GoWatron GWPR300‑TB transformer backup protection relay adopts a panel‑mounted fully‑enclosed chassis. Its hardware consists of AC sampling module, power supply module, relay output module, digital input (DI) module, CPU module and HMI module. The modular architecture facilitates on‑site maintenance. Operating temperature ranges from ‑40℃ to 70℃ with wide‑range AC/DC power supply support. Passive relay outputs feature high contact capacity. Its insulation and EMC performance comply with international standards, providing immunity against electrostatic discharge, surge, electrical fast transient and other field interferences. Equipped with LCD display and physical operation keys, it supports local setting configuration, status viewing, event access and device commissioning. Built‑in large‑capacity memory stores abundant event logs and fault recording data for post‑fault analysis. It is the preferred device for transformer backup protection in power transmission & distribution projects.
