Product Description

Adept at protecting, monitoring, and controlling motor systems, GE Multilin ‘s 169PLUS-120N-120 is equipped with a wide range of metering and safeguarding capabilities that make it an excellent Motor Management Relay. This unit is one of the PLUS models of the 169 series, giving it a number of advantages over the base model, such as advanced metering capabilities and extra connections.

The 169PLUS-120N-120 runs on user-configurable settings called ‘setpoints’ that define when trips occur, which values are displayed on the LCD, and more. The 1601-0003-A4 user manual provides extensive information on the various setpoints and how they impact the system, so users should reference it prior to beginning programming their relay. A few of the system setpoints include TRIP TIME, CUSTOM CURVE, RTD ALARM LEVEL, and G/F CT RATIO. 

The faceplate of the 169PLUS-120N-120 includes the 48-character alphanumeric liquid-crystal display, a keypad for navigating the display, and a number of LEDs that indicate system health. The faceplate itself is made of a polycarbonate material and can be cleaned with mild soap, isopropyl alcohol, freon, or naptha. The LCD functions at a temperature range 0°C to +55°C. The LCD’s brightness may need to be adjusted after installing the relay. 

The drawout construction chassis protects the relay from dust and damage during routine operation. The chassis can be installed easily by following the instructions contained within the 1601-0003-A4 manual. Users should ensure the door of the chassis has proper space to swing open to enable easy access to the relay’s keypad and LCD. 

Frequently Asked Questions about 169PLUS-120N-120

What is the 169PLUS-120N-120?

An enhanced model of General Electric Multilin's 169 series, the 169PLUS-120N-120 serves as a Motor Management Relay for medium to large motor systems. The relay offers a high degree of configurability due to its setpoint system, which can be programmed in the field or within Multilin's EnerVista software program.
Does the GE Multilin 169PLUS-120N-120 come with additional features when compared to a 169-120N-120 motor management relay?
The 169PLUS-120N-120 is a GE Multilin Plus relay and thus includes additional features when compared to the 169-120N-120. As specified by the selected order codes in the part number, the RTD specification is a 120N, which means the RTD sensory is composed of 120 ohm nickel. The Plus model comes with an additional two RTD inputs. The display accuracy for these RTD inputs is plus or minus 2 C. The 169PLUS-120N-120 has a 120 AC control voltage as specified by the part number. The frequency is specified at 50/60 Hz and the maximum consumption of power is 40 VA. 
In addition to the extra RTD inputs, the 169 Multilin Plus models also come with two auxiliary relays. The 169 Plus model is able to monitor and record motor statistics, such as the number of motor starts, the type of relay trips, and the motor running hours. The 169 Plus can also adapt to a certain motor by recording cool down rate, acceleration time, negative sequence current heating K factor, and using this data to tailor motor protection to that specific motor. In comparison, the basic 169 model is limited to learning motor inrush current only.  The GE Multilin 169 Plus relays, such as a 169PLUS-120N-120, also include a spare input, a differential relay, and a speed switch. The Plus models are equipped with a RS 422 port in order to communicate with computers or programmable controllers.
