Power Quality and Measurements

SIPROTEC 7KE85
Fault Recorder

Description
The SIPROTEC 7KE85 is a powerful fault recorder with
integrated measuring of synchrophasors (PMU) according
to IEEE C37.118 and Power Quality measurement according to IEC 61000-4-30. Due to the high flexibility of trigger
functions, the SIPROTEC 7KE85 is ideally suited to monitor
the entire energy value chain from generation to distribution. The powerful automation and flexible configuration
with DIGSI 5 complements the range of functions.

Application Areas

Fast scan recorder

The fault recorder SIPROTEC 7KE85 is designed for medium-voltage systems, high-voltage systems and extra-high
voltage systems and power plants. The SIPROTEC 7KE85
provides a clearly structured and event-related evaluation
and documentation of your power system processes. It
enables you to analyze disturbances and to optimize your
power system.

Up to 2 slow scan recorders

Typical processes are:

Power system incidents such as critical load cases or
short circuits
Disturbances of the supply quality
Dynamic behavior of generators
Starting and switch-off processes of transformers (saturation behavior)

Up to 5 continuous recorders and 2 trend recorders

Power Quality recordings according to IEC 61000-4-30
(Harmonics, THD, TDD in preparation)
Sequence of event recorder for continuous recording of
binary status changes and IEC 61850 GOOSE Messages
Applicable as Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) according to IEEE C37.118 standard
Transmission of records and triggering via IEC 61850
GOOSE messages
Sampling frequencies parameterizable from 1 kHz to
16 kHz
The user can allocate the 16-gigabyte buffer (16 GByte)
to the various recorders

 Intelligent monitoring routines of the storage medium

ensure a high security of the archived data

Benefits

Loss-free data compression

Clearly structured and event-related evaluation and

documentation of your power system processes

Time synchronization via Precision Time Protocol (PTP)

IEEE 1588 Protocol, IRIG-B, DCF77 and SNTP

Data security and transparency throughout the entire

life cycle of the system save time and reduce costs

Free routing of measured values to the individual recorders

Clear and easy-to-use devices and software thanks to

user-friendly design

Free combination of the measuring groups for power

calculation

Increased quality and reliability of the engineering

process

Quality Attributes for representing the current signal

quality in a time signal view

High-performance communications components

guarantee safe and effective solutions

The trigger functions of a function block are the value of

the fundamental component, RMS value, zerosequence/positive sequence/ negative-sequence system,
frequency, active power/ reactive power / apparent
power

Full compatibility with IEC 61850 Edition 1 and 2

Highly available Ethernet communication due to Redundancy Protocols PRP and HSR

Level trigger and gradient trigger for each trigger

function
Flexible cross, network and manual trigger
Creating of own trigger functions using the graphic
automation editor CFC (Continuous Function Chart)
Trigger functions by combining single-point/doublepoint indications, analog values, binary signals, Boolean
signals and GOOSE messages
Cyber Security according NERC CIP and BDEW Whitepaper
