Ground fault unit

What does Ground Fault (GDF) mean? A ground fault is a type of fault in which straying electrical current deviates from its intentional pathway and flows directly to the earth (ground) or in other words contact between the job and the coil which could cause potential harm to the inductor(coil) or job or a person.

Principles of Ground fault Unit

The Inductor Ground Fault is connected through the isolated current transformer. The current transformer can sense leakage current from the ground cable and the set reference on the GDF unit, once the set reference is lower than the leakage current it latches the ground fault.

Product Highlights
  • GDF units are easy to set, understand and visualize.
  • GDF unit reduces the electrical failures which could impact an industrial power system.
Main features
  • A ground fault unit can help prevent damage to the inductor (coil) and the Job. If the GDF unit senses any leakage current, it cuts off the power before it can cause damage to the Inductor and Job.
  • It helps to discover failure jobs and Inductor

Typical applications for Ground fault unit

Annealing
Annealing

Induction annealing enables precise, fast and reliable control of metal material properties through recrystallization and controlled subsequent cooling. Induction annealing is mainly used for softening and stressrelieving of metals and offers enormous advantages over conventional methods.

Hardening
Hardening

Hardening is a process of heating followed by cooling generally fast for increase hardness and mechanical strength of steel. Induction hardening, using induction heating and quenching, provides an economical way to process shafts, gears, bearings, yokes, spindles, sprockets, wire, tube, pipe or other parts.

Tempering
Tempering

Tempering is a process able to decrease the hardness, strength and increases the toughness of hardened steels while removing the tensions created in the material, leaving the steel with the required hardness. A heating process that optimizes mechanical properties in workpieces that have already been hardened.
