Littelfuse 201A-AU - The 201A-AU is a 3-phase, auto-ranging, dual-range voltage monitor that protects 190-480VAC, 50/60Hz motors regardless of size. Has user adjustable 1-30 second trip delay, manual or 1-500 second restart delay, and 2-8% voltage unbalance trip point. The product also provides a user selectable nominal voltage setpoint and the voltage monitor automatically selects between the 200V and 400V range. The Model 201A-AU includes advanced single LED diagnostics, where five different light patterns distinguish between faults and normal conditions. This unique microcontroller-based voltage and phase-sensing device constantly monitors the 3-phase voltages to detect harmful power line conditions. When a harmful condition is detected, the 201A-AU's output relay is deactivated after a specified trip delay. The output relay reactivates after power line conditions return to acceptable levels.

Overview

The Littelfuse 201A-AU (SKU: 201A-AU) is a 3-phase, auto-ranging, dual-range voltage monitor engineered to protect motors operating between 190-480VAC at 50/60Hz, regardless of motor size. This advanced microcontroller-based device features proprietary circuitry that continuously monitors 3-phase voltages to detect harmful power line conditions such as low voltage, high voltage, voltage unbalance, phase reversal, and rapid cycling. The 201A-AU automatically selects between 200V and 400V ranges for optimal performance across industrial applications, eliminating manual range selection and saving setup time. Key features include user-adjustable trip delays (1-30 seconds) and restart delays (manual or 1-500 seconds), providing precise control over motor protection. The device offers a configurable voltage unbalance trip point (2-8%) to reduce nuisance tripping and ensure compatibility with a variety of motors. Advanced single LED diagnostics with five distinct light patterns enable quick fault identification, distinguishing between normal operation, power-up restart delay, reverse-phase trip, unbalance/single-phase trip, and high/low voltage trip. The compact 8-pin design supports both DIN rail and surface mount installations, offering flexibility in panel design. The 201A-AU operates with a wide input voltage range (190-480VAC) and includes a user-selectable nominal voltage setpoint. Its output relay deactivates upon detecting harmful conditions after the specified trip delay and reactivates once power line conditions return to acceptable levels for the configured restart delay. This ensures reliable protection against nuisance tripping while maintaining operational safety. Ideal for protecting critical motor-driven equipment in industrial environments, including pumps, conveyors, compressors, and HVAC systems, the 201A-AU is manufactured in the US and distributed by Gross Automation. Accessories include the OT08PC Octal 8-pin socket for enhanced mounting options.
