Three-phase Heaters

When a 3-phase power supply is used, regardless of the types of connecting
lines, two current transformers (CTs) are required to detect heater burnout and
HS.

1. For Delta connecting power lines:

Refer to the following diagram for

CT installation positions.

Note:

Heater voltage fluctuations are not considered here. Take this into
account when setting the detection current.

2. For Star (Y) connecting power lines:

Refer to the following diagram

for CT installation positions.

Note:

Heater voltage fluctuations are not considered here. Take this into
account when setting the detection current.
