функция предотвращения неопределенности поведения автоматического выключателя
-
[Интент]

Параллельные тексты EN-RU

Enabling or disabling the anti-pumping function

The purpose of the mechanical anti-pumping function is to ensure that a circuit breaker receiving simultaneous opening and closing orders does not open and close indefinitely.
If there is a continuous closing order, after opening the circuit breaker remains open until the closing order is discontinued.
A new closing order then closes the circuit.
This function can be disabled by wiring the closing release in series with the PF "ready to close" contact.
[Schneider Electric]

Управление функцией предотвращения неопределенности поведения автоматического выключателя

Функция предотвращения неопределенности поведения предназначена для того, чтобы
исключить неопределенность поведения автоматического выключателя в случае, если на него одновременно будут поданы команды включения и отключения.
Если после команды отключения непрерывно подается команда включения, то автоматический выключатель остается в отключенном положении.
Так будет продолжаться до тех пор, пока не будет снята команда включения.
Автоматический выключатель включится после подачи новой команды включения.
Эту функцию можно отключить, если последовательно с электромагнитом включения включить контакт PF – «готов к включению».
