PCS-996R
Disturbance Fault Recorder
The PCS-996R disturbance & fault recorder (DFR) is a
multifunctional data acquisition system designed to address
Functions
the data recording requirements of substations. It captures the Recording Functions
curves of monitored quantities and aligns the values of different • Initiating recording by AC voltage
supervised objects to build disturbance records. The PCS-996R - Phase voltage over upper limit
helps users simplify disturbance analysis by combining the discrete - Phase voltage under lower limit
records in different protective relays. - Sudden increase/decrease of phase voltage over limit
- Negative sequence voltage over upper limit
The disturbance & fault recording system architecture can be
- Zero sequence voltage over upper limit
centralized or distributed based upon customers’ requests.DFRs
can also be applied to a substation independently with a local - Sudden change of zero-sequence over limit
computer and HMI software. The protocol for the communication - Frequency over upper limit
network can be IEC 61850, FTP and IEC 60870- 5-103 based on
- Frequency under lower limit
LAN. GOOSE function is integrated to receive information from the
