Jam Protection
A motor goes into a jam condition when a running motor begins to consume
current greater than50% of the motor’s nameplate rating. An example of this
condition could be an overloaded conveyor or jammed gear. These conditions
can result in the overheating of the motor and equipment damage. The E300
Electronic Overload Relay can monitor for this condition with its Jam Trip and
Warning function to detect for a rapid jam fault to minimize damage and loss of
production.
Jam Inhibit Time
Jam Inhibit Time (Parameter 251) allows the installer to inhibit a jam trip and
warning from occurring during the motor starting sequence. It is adjustable from
0…250 s.

IMPORTANT
Stall Protection is only enabled during the motor starting sequence. If the
maximum phase of load current falls below the programmed Stall Trip Level
before the Stall Enabled Time elapses, the E300 Electronic Overload Relay
disables Stall Protection until the next motor starting sequence.
IMPORTANT
The E300 Electronic Overload Relay considers a motor to have begun its
starting sequence if the maximum phase of motor current transitions from 0A
to approximately 30% of the device’s minimum FLA Setting.
