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
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 you to inhibit a jam trip and warning
from occurring during the motor starting sequence. It is adjustable from 0…250 s.

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 relay disables Stall Protection
until the next motor starting sequence.
The E300 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 minimum FLA setting of the device.
