1. Fampidirana sy Fitohizanaview
The ELKO EP HRN-55N is a sophisticated electronic relay designed for continuous monitoring of phase sequence and phase loss in three-phase electrical systems. This device is crucial for protecting sensitive equipment, such as motors, pumps, and compressors, from damage caused by incorrect phase rotation or the complete absence of one or more phases. It ensures the correct operation and longevity of machinery by disconnecting the load when an anomaly is detected.
This manual provides comprehensive instructions for the safe installation, operation, and maintenance of the HRN-55N relay. Please read this manual thoroughly before installation and operation to ensure proper functionality and to prevent potential hazards.
Safety Warning: Installation and servicing must be performed by qualified personnel only, in accordance with all local and national electrical codes and regulations. Disconnect all power before working on the device.

2. Fametrahana sy fametrahana
2.1 Fametrahana
The HRN-55N relay is designed for DIN rail mounting (EN 60715). Ensure the mounting location is free from excessive vibration, moisture, dust, and corrosive gases. Maintain adequate ventilation around the device to prevent overheating.
- Securely attach the DIN rail to a stable surface within an electrical enclosure.
- Clip the HRN-55N relay onto the DIN rail by aligning the bottom clips and pressing the top edge until it locks into place.
2.2 Tariby
Before wiring, ensure the main power supply to the circuit is disconnected and locked out. Refer to the wiring diagram typically found on the side of the device or in the product datasheet for precise terminal connections. The HRN-55N typically requires connection to all three phases (L1, L2, L3) and a neutral (N) if applicable, for its monitoring function, and also has output relay contacts (e.g., 15, 16, 18) for controlling the load.
- Connect the three-phase supply lines (L1, L2, L3) to the corresponding input terminals on the HRN-55N.
- If the device requires a neutral connection, connect the neutral line to the designated terminal.
- Connect the load control circuit to the output relay contacts. These contacts are typically Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC), and a Common (COM) terminal. For most applications, the NO contact is used to energize a contactor coil, which then supplies power to the protected equipment.
- Ensure all connections are tight and secure to prevent loose contacts and potential arcing.
Important: Incorrect wiring can damage the device or the connected equipment, and poses a severe electrical hazard.
3. Torolàlana miasa
Once properly installed and wired, the HRN-55N operates automatically to monitor the phase conditions.
3.1 Power-Up and Initial Operation
- After completing all wiring, restore power to the circuit.
- The HRN-55N will perform a self-check. The status LED (typically green) will illuminate if all phases are present and in the correct sequence.
- If the phase sequence is correct and no phase loss is detected, the output relay will energize (the NO contact will close), allowing power to the protected equipment.
3.2 LED famantarana
The HRN-55N typically features one or more LEDs to indicate its operational status:
- Green LED (Power/Status):
- Solid ON: All phases present, correct sequence, relay energized.
- OFF: No power, or internal fault.
- Flashing: (Specific to model, may indicate a delay or specific fault condition).
- Red LED (Fault/Error): (Raha misy)
- Solid ON: Phase loss or incorrect phase sequence detected, relay de-energized.
3.3 Phase Sequence and Loss Detection
The HRN-55N continuously monitors the voltage and phase angle of each connected phase. If the phase sequence (L1-L2-L3) is incorrect, or if any phase voltage drops below a preset threshold (phase loss), the relay will immediately de-energize its output contacts, thereby protecting the connected load. The relay will automatically reset and re-energize once the correct phase conditions are restored.
4. Fikojakojana
The ELKO EP HRN-55N relay is designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation. However, periodic inspection of the installation environment is recommended.
- Fanadiovana: Ensure the device is free from dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Fifandraisana: Periodically check terminal connections for tightness, especially in environments with vibration. Loose connections can lead to overheating and malfunction.
- Fepetra ara-tontolo iainana: Hamarino fa mijanona ao anatin'ny mari-pana sy hamandoana voafaritra ny tontolo iasana.
Note: There are no user-serviceable parts inside the HRN-55N. Do not attempt to open or repair the device. Doing so will void the warranty and may pose a safety risk.
5. Famahana olana
If the HRN-55N is not functioning as expected, refer to the following troubleshooting guide:
| Symptom | Antony mety hitranga | vahaolana |
|---|---|---|
| Device has no power (LEDs off). | Tsy misy fampidirana voltage; incorrect wiring; blown fuse in supply circuit. | Jereo ny fidirana voltage at terminals; verify wiring against diagram; check and replace fuses. |
| Green LED off, Red LED (if present) on, or relay not energizing. | Incorrect phase sequence; phase loss detected; voltage outside operating range. | Verify phase sequence (L1, L2, L3) at input terminals; check for missing phases; measure line voltages. Correct any issues. |
| Relay cycles on/off rapidly. | Fampidirana tsy miorina voltage; intermittent phase loss. | Check power supply stability; inspect wiring for loose connections; consult with an electrician to diagnose power quality issues. |
| Relay energized, but load not receiving power. | Fault in load circuit; contactor coil failure; wiring error to load. | Check the load circuit and contactor; verify wiring from HRN-55N output to contactor coil. |
If the problem persists after following these steps, contact ELKO EP technical support or a qualified electrician.
