Bulletin Number 825-P

Bulletin 825-P
Modular Protection System

The Bulletin 825-P Modular Protection System for motors

offers a compact, modular design that uniquely allows an
installer to configure a devices functional capabilities to
match the application requirements. Flexibility is also afforded
by accommodating future expansion of the system as the
application requirements grow. Ease of installation is
provided through pluggable options and accessories. Finally,
this next generation design offers greater capabilities with
the option of full metering for line voltage and power
monitoring in addition to expanded RTD monitoring.
