Inputs and outputs:

3 predefined standard variants with

• 4 current transformers,
• 4 voltage transformers, 
• 11 to 27 binary inputs, 
• 9 to 17 binary outputs

Hardware flexibility:

As standard:

• Conformal coating

DIGSI 5 permits all functions to be configured and combined as required.

• Motor protection functions: Startup time monitoring, thermal overload protection for stator and rotor, restart inhibit, unbalanced-load protection, load-jam protection
• Stator and bearing temperature monitoring via temperature sensors with external RTD unit.
• Differential motor protection as fast short-circuit protection for motors of high power
• Sensitive ground-fault protection (non-directional, directional) to detect stator ground faults
• Directional and non-directional overcurrent protection (short- circuit protection) with additional functions
• Detection of ground faults of any type in compensated or isolated electrical power systems using the following functions: 3I0>, V0>, fleeting contact, cos φ, sin φ, harmonic, dir. Detection of intermittent ground faults and admittance 
  
• Ground fault detection using the pulse detection method 
• Overvoltage and undervoltage protection
  
• Arc protection
• Power protection, configurable as active or reactive power protection
• Detection of current and voltage signals up to the 50th harmonic with high accuracy for selected protection functions (such as thermal overload protection) and operational measured values
• Control, synchrocheck and switchgear interlocking protection
• Graphical logic editor to create powerful automation functions in the device
• Integrated electrical Ethernet RJ45 for DIGSI 5 and IEC 61850 (reporting and GOOSE)
• Up to 4 pluggable communication modules, usable for different and redundant protocols (IEC 61850-8-1, IEC 61850-9-2, IEC 60870-5-103, IEC 60870-5-104, Modbus TCP, DNP3 serial and TCP, PROFINET IO)
  
• Reliable data transmission via PRP and HSR redundancy protocols
• Extensive cyber security functionality, such as role-based access control (RBAC), protocolling security-related events or signed firmware
• Simple, quick and secure access to device data via a standard Web browser – without additional software
• Secure serial protection data communication, also over great distances and all available physical media (optical fiber, two-wire connections and communication networks)
• Capturing operational measured variables and protection function measured values for the evaluation of the systems,to support commissioning, and to analyze faults
• Synchrophasor measured values with the IEEE C37.118 Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU)
• Powerful fault recording (buffer for a max. record time of 80 sec. at 8 kHz or 320 sec. at 2 kHz)
• Auxiliary functions for simple tests and commissioning
• Flexibly adjustable I/O quantity structure within the scope of the SIPROTEC 5 modular system

• Protection against thermal overload of the stator from overcurrent, cooling problems or pollution
• Protection against thermal overload of the rotor during startup due to: Frequent startups, excessively long startups or blocked rotor
• Monitoring for voltage unbalance or phase outage
• Monitoring the thermal state and the bearing temperatures with  temperature measurement
• Detection of idling drives of pumps and compressors, for example
• Detection of ground faults in the motor
• Protection against motor short circuits
• Protection against instability due to undervoltage.

• Safety due to powerful protection functions
