Removing 
and Replacing 
the
Trip 
Unit's 
Transparent 
Cover
The current 
protection 
adjustments on the front 
panel 
of the
trip unit can be secured 
against tampering  by a 
plexiglass
transparent cover 
(see 
Accessories 
section).
1) Prior to 
setting the adjustments,  the transparent cover must be
removed. 
All that is required 
to 
remove 
the cover 
is 
to 
remove 
the
two nylon 
seaiing  screws  that hold it in 
place.
2.) 
Afler 
the adjustments  have 
been set to the desired 
posrtions,
the cover  should 
be 
replaced 
and a wire may be lnserted.
3.) After insertlng the wire,  secure with  a lead  seal to 
prevent 
tampering
Setting  the Overcurrent 
Protection Adjustments
The trip unit executes its overcurrent 
protection 
functions
based on the current  sensor 
rating 
and the 
settings of the
current 
protection 
adjustments. 
Therefore,  care should be
taken by the user to make 
proper 
sensor selection  and adjust-
ment settings,
CAUTION: 
An 
adjustment 
will momentarily  revert to 
its
minimum 
possible 
setting 
whenever a change to the
adiustment 
is 
being 
made. This may cause 
inadvertent
tripping of 
the circuit breaker 
if 
the adjustment 
is made
with 
the circuit 
breaker  in lhe closed 
position. 
Therefore,
Siemens 
recommends 
that all adjustment 
changes be
made with 
the circuit breaker 
open.
To 
set an adjustment, 
place 
a slotted 
screw driver onto the
point-to-point 
adjustment switch and 
rotate 
the switch 
to the
desired setting.
The figure on the following 
page 
describes 
the region of the
time current  curve 
that is being affected by each adjustment.
