This is and induction motor protection system that protects
This is and induction motor protection system that protects against single phasing, overheating, over and under voltage. I need to know if this circuit actually does all of this and how it works.
Solution
In single phasing protection to 3 phase induction motor, if other two phases is faulted and only one protection of motor section starts functioning. Generally in single phase supply voltage is lower value than specified value. On this value of voltage motor is unable to start. Comparator which compares single phasing supply voltage and rated specified voltage, and single sends to microcontroller and microcontroller generates single which stop the motor if motor is running and does not allow to motor start in case of standstill.
Overheating protection of motor means protect the motor from overheating of its winding. This overheating in motor is generally caused by overloading of motor, bearing seizes up something locked the motor shaft from turning. Motor simply fails to starts properly, a failure to start of motor may cause by faulty start in winding in motor. For sensing the heat LM 35 sensor is used for this purpose. This sensor is connected to comparator inputs which sense the temperature of winding & its temperature exceeds to some particular level then comparator sends thissignal to microcontroller
In overvoltage protection system of 3 phase induction motor, protects the motor from overvoltage, the voltage which is higher than the rated voltage. In circuit diagram of overvoltage protection it consists the comparator which compare two voltages one is supply and another one is drop across the variable resistance. When the voltage drop across the variable résistance is higher than specified value then comparator generates signals.In under voltage protection of 3 phase induction motor provides the protection from the under voltage. When supply system has low voltage than the rated of induction motor then under voltage protection section of protection supply is provided to motor It has same concept as overvoltage it also has comparator which compare two voltage one form supply and another from the voltage drop across the variable résistance. When voltage drop across the variable resistance is lower than specified value, this signal sends to microcontroller and microcontroller stop the operation of motor in the case of running and fails to operate in case of starting.
