Basler Introduces BE1-64F Field Ground Relay

Basler Electric has released a new field ground (64F) relay, the BE1-64F. This relay is used to detect ground faults on the field windings of electrical machines, such as motors and generators.

The BE1-64F fits into the same cutout as many alternative field ground relays with a more modern design and less expensive price.

It offers:

• Two fixed levels of ground detection – a Pre-Alarm level and a Trip level.
• Each level has an independent LED indicator and output contact.
• Latching Target LED to indicate a trip condition even after the ground is removed.
• The Target LED drive circuit is magnetically latched, so that the LED will return to the illuminated state following an interruption of control power to the BE1-64F.
