Description
Bender VMD421H-D-3 Voltage Monitoring Relay
Product Dimensions:
The Bender VMD421H-D-3 is a multi-functional digital voltage monitoring relay designed for three-phase AC systems. It is part of the LINETRAXX® series and is widely used for protecting electrical installations against voltage and frequency fluctuations.
Below is the detailed product information in English.
1. Product Overview
The VMD421H-D-3 monitors undervoltage, overvoltage, and frequency in 3(N)AC systems. It also includes functions for asymmetry (unbalance), phase failure, and phase sequence monitoring. The device is self-powered from the monitored system and features an integrated energy backup to maintain operation during brief power interruptions.

| Enclosure Width | 36 mm (2 modules) |
3. Key Advantages
-
Multifunctional Monitoring: Combines voltage, frequency, phase sequence, and asymmetry monitoring in a single compact device.
-
Self-Powered: No external auxiliary supply voltage is required, simplifying the installation and reducing wiring.
-
Digital Display: The multi-functional LC display provides real-time monitoring of system values and easy parameterization.
-
Energy Backup: Integrated energy storage ensures the device can signal a power failure and maintain the alarm state for up to 2.5 seconds.
-
Preset Function: Includes an automatic setting function for basic parameters based on the detected nominal system voltage ($U_n$).
4. Product Applications
-
Industrial Protection: Monitoring of voltage-sensitive machines and electrical installations.
-
Emergency Systems: Monitoring of stand-by and emergency supply systems (e.g., generators).
-
Motor Protection: Protecting three-phase motors against phase failure, phase reversal, and asymmetrical loads.
-
Transformer Monitoring: Detection of asymmetrical loads to protect distribution transformers.
-
Portable Loads: Monitoring supply voltage for mobile or portable equipment.
5. Important Considerations & Precautions
-
Installation Safety: Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician. For systems $> 400$ V, strict adherence to local electrical safety standards is mandatory.
-
Short-Circuit Protection: It is highly recommended to use 5 A fuses at the sensing inputs (L1, L2, L3, N) for short-circuit protection.
-
Neutral (N) Connection: The Neutral connection is only necessary if you intend to monitor Phase-to-Neutral ($L-N$) voltages.
-
Configuration Lock: Use the password protection feature to prevent unauthorized changes to the setpoints and delay times.
-
Latching Mode: If “Fault Memory” (Latching) is enabled, the device must be manually reset using the “R” button after a fault has been cleared.
