from Cooper Power Systems for S.T.A.R.™ Faulted Circuit Indicators (Manual Reset Type)
S.T.A.R. Manual Reset faulted circuit indicators consist of a sensor unit with an integral FISHEYE™ target display.The FISHEYE display provides 180°visual indication. This unique orange reflective target designates a faulted condition and a black target designates a normal condition. The FISHEYE display also features a Lexan® cover that provides superior scratch protection for the target window. The sensor unit itself features a clamping mechanism design that allows easy snap-on connection to the live conductor with the use of a single shotgun stick.
A low pass filter, a standard feature on the MR FCI, will prevent the S.T.A.R. faulted circuit indicator from tripping on high frequency transients like those caused by capacitive discharges. In addition, the S.T.A.R. faulted circuit indicator is equipped with temperature compensation circuitry to assure the accurate and reliable performance over the entire specified temperature range.
The quick response time of the S.T.A.R. manual reset faulted circuit indicator provides easy coordination with current-limiting fuses and other protective devices. This unique combination of standard features makes the S.T.A.R. faulted circuit indicator extremely reliable.
