Electric irrigation motors are the foundation of contemporary farming, particularly in India, where agriculture is primarily reliant on electric pumps to maintain reliable water delivery. However, one frequently neglected threat to these motors is single phasing, which is a typical problem in rural power networks. Fortunately, Selfguard Automation and Controls offers a sensible and economical solution: the Single Phase Preventer.
With over three decades of experience in electrical safety and automation, Selfguard created a microcontroller-based Single Phase Preventer that protects motors from phase-related failures, making it a vital component of every farmer's electrical setup.
What is Single Phasing and Why is It Harmful?
Single phasing happens when one of a power supply's three phases fails or is disconnected. If a motor continues to operate in this position, it pulls too much current from the remaining two phases, resulting in overheating, mechanical stress, and eventually motor burnout. For farmers, this can result in crop loss, expensive maintenance costs, and significant downtime during important watering seasons.
Advantage: Smart Protection for Smarter Farming
The Selfguard Single Phase Preventer detects and disconnects the motor when dangerous conditions are recognised. Here's why every farmer should think about installing one.
Advanced Microcontroller-Based Design
Unlike traditional protectors, Selfguard's SPP employs a microprocessor to provide exact monitoring of all three phases. This allows the accurate diagnosis of problems such as single phasing, reverse phasing, and phase imbalance.
Clear Phase Condition Indicators
The gadget includes separate indications for phase status, allowing even non-technical users to quickly comprehend the system's state.
Built-in Delay Timer
A predefined delay is incorporated to prevent erroneous trips caused by temporary oscillations. This is especially useful in places with unpredictable voltage, ensuring that only serious defects cause the cut-off.
Wide Range Compatibility
The SPP is ideal for a wide range of agricultural motor configurations and can withstand tough field conditions. Selfguard's system is suitable for both tiny submersible pumps and large motors.
Zero Maintenance & Easy Installation
The Selfguard SPP, with its plug-and-play simplicity and durable design, is excellent for farmers looking for a hassle-free, long-term motor protection solution.
