K8AK-PA@ output relay is normally operative. 2. The power ON lock prevents unnecessary alarms from being generated during the instable period when the power is first turned on. There is no relay output during timer operation. 3. Phase loss is detected by L1, L2, and L3 voltage drops. A phase loss will exist if any of the phases drops below 60% of the rated input. 4. L1 and L2 function both as the power supply terminals and as input terminals. If the voltage drops dramatically, then the Relay will not operate due to an undervoltage. 5. Motor load phase loss cannot be detected during operation. 6. Phase loss is detected based on voltage, so phase loss cannot be detected on the load side. Calculating the Asymmetry Operating Voltage Asymmetry operation condition = (Highest voltage − Lowest voltage) > Asymmetry operating voltage Asymmetry operating voltage = Rated input voltage (V) × Asymmetry set value (%) Note: The rated input voltage is selected and set with the DIP switch. 4 Alarm relay Phase loss L1 L1 Alarm indicator Contact operation Asymmetry t: Operating time (0.1 to 30 s) t1 Phase loss operation Display *1 L1 and L2 are also used for the power supply.

Operating time knob (T) Used to set the operating time to 0.1 to 30 s. Note: 1. Use either a solid wire of 2.5 mm2 maximum or a ferrule with insulating sleeve for the terminal connection. The length of the exposed current-carrying part inserted into the terminal must be 8 mm or less to maintain dielectric strength after connection. For 2.5 mm2 or smaller solid wires 8 mm max.

The setting range is 2% to 22% of the rated input. Turn the knob while there is an input to the input terminals until the alarm indicator flashes (when the set value and the input have reached the same level.) Use this as a guide to make the setting. The rated input depends on the model and DIP switch setting. Example: K8AK-PA1 with Pin 2 Turned OFF (Three-phase, Three-wire Mode) and Pins 3 and 4 Turned OFF (Rated Voltage of 200 V) The rated input voltage is 200 VAC and the setting range is 4 to 44 V. If the setting (ASY. knob) is at 10%, the asymmetry operation voltage is 20 V and an alarm will be output if the difference between the minimum and maximum phases for two of the three phases exceeds 20 V. ●Operating Time The operating time is set using the operating time knob (T). The operating time can be set to between 0.1 and 30 s. Turn the knob while there is an input to the input terminals until the alarm indicator flashes (when the set value and the input have reached the same level.) Use this as a guide to set the operating time. If the input exceeds the asymmetry set value, the alarm indicator will start flashing for the set period and then stay lit.

The Unit will operate when the difference between the maximum and minimum voltage phases reaches or exceeds the asymmetry operating value. Asymmetry operating value = Rated input voltage × Asymmetry set value (%) Example: For monitoring mode set to three-phase three-wire monitoring, a rated voltage of 200 V, and an operating time of 5 s. Note: K8AK-PA@ output relays are normally operative.

Close the switch and use the cycle counter to measure the operating time. Load-side Phase Loss In principle, phase loss cannot be detected on the load side because the K8AK-PA@ measures three-phase voltage to determine phase loss. Q Contact Q Phase Sequence Operation Switch the wiring, as shown by the dotted lines in connection diagram 1, to reverse the phase sequence and check that the K8AK operates. Phase Loss Operation Create a phase loss for any input phase and check that the K8AK operates. Asymmetry operating voltage (set value) Inputs L2 L3 Checking the Phase Sequence and Phase Loss Operation Motor Load Phase Loss during Operation Phase loss cannot be detected for motor loads during operation. Use the asymmetry detection function. Normally, three-phase motors will continue to rotate even if one phase is open. The three-phase voltage will be induced at the motor terminals. The diagram shows voltage induction at the motor terminals when phase R is lost with a load applied to a three-phase motor. The horizontal axis shows the motor load as a percentage of the rated load, and the vertical axis shows voltage as a percentage of the rated voltage. The lines in the graph show the voltage induced at the motor terminals for each load when phase loss occurs during operation. As the graph shows, phase loss cannot be detected because the motor terminal voltage does not drop very much even if a phase is lost when the load on the motor is light. Use the asymmetry detection function to detect asymmetry in the motor terminal voltages. Set the operating time carefully because it will affect the time from when the phase loss occurs until tripping when this function is used.
