Schneider VAMP 52 PowerLogic Feeder and Motor Protection Relay

Schneider VAMP 52 PowerLogic Feeder and Motor Protection Relay is a multifunction numerical relay designed for protecting low- and medium-voltage feeders and asynchronous motors. It combines feeder protection, motor protection, control, monitoring, and measurement functions in a single compact unit, making it suitable for industrial plants, utility networks, and OEM switchgear applications.

The relay provides dependable protection against electrical faults while also monitoring the operating condition of the connected equipment. Its extensive thermal protection functions help safeguard low- and medium-sized motors from overheating and overload conditions. For feeder applications, the relay also supports directional earth fault protection and auto-reclose, improving system reliability and reducing downtime caused by temporary faults.

VAMP 52 is built with a modular hardware platform that allows communication interfaces, digital I/O modules, and arc protection interfaces to be added as required. The relay features a clear LCD display, programmable LEDs, front-panel control keys, and simple configuration through VAMPSET software.
