GE Multilin 8 Series Platform Overview

Multilin 8 Series Platform Overview

From oil pumping and refining facilities, to open pit or underground mining

and processing operations, to large or small utilities, customers demand

solutions that ensure maximum process uptime, minimum operational

and maintenance efforts, and have the durability to withstand harsh

environmental conditions.

The Multilin 8 Series is GE’s next-generation protection and control relay

platform provides comprehensive protection and asset monitoring for

critical feeders, motors, generators, and transformers.

The 8 Series is designed to solve the challenges that customers face in

running their day-to-day operations including maximizing system and

process uptime, simplifying system integration and maintenance, and

extending the life of critical assets. Utilizing advanced design practices,

superior technology (elimination of all electrolytic capacitors), and state-of

the art test and manufacturing facilities, GE is raising the bar on system

performance and reliability.

With advanced communications the 8 Series integrates easily and

seamlessly into new or existing DCS/SCADA system, along with other Multilin

protection devices, providing a comprehensive solution for the end-to-end

electrical system within the operations.

Exceptional Quality & Reliability

Industry-leading quality, reliability and design processes are at the core of

GE’s next generation protective relay platform. With significant investments

in state-of-the-art type test facilities that simulate a complete range

of operating environments and manufactured to the IPC A-610 Class 3

standard, adhering to the highest reliability standards and ensuring rugged

performance, each device completes Environmental Stress Screening prior

to shipping from GE’s facility.

The Multilin 8 Series Protection Relays are manufactured in an ISO®

9001:2008 certified manufacturing facility.

Pioneering Technology & Design

The Multilin 845 is part of the 8 Series platform that provides comprehensive,

high performance protection and control for critical assets in Industrial and

utility environments.

Utilizing decades of experience in transformer protection, GE has

implemented ease-of-use features, such as single screen setup and

condition-based health monitoring and diagnostics, including integrated

transformer fault gas collection, trending, and analytics.

The Mutilin 8 Series products have an integrated protection integrity engine

that utilizes customized algorithms, providing advanced diagnostics to

ensure asset protection is not compromised.

Maintaining and safeguarding the electrical supply of an operation is critical

to ensuring maximum process availability and performance.

The 8 Series incorporates the latest cyber security features, including

password complexity, RADIUS authentication and role-based access control

(RBAC), enabling customers to comply with NERC CIP and NISTIR 7628

requirements.

Understanding that customers need protection and control devices that

must reliably operate in harsh and challenging environments, GE delivers

the Multilin 8 Series with harsh conformal coating on all printed circuit

boards and a patented environmental awareness module that provides

real-time detection of environmental factors that affect product life, as part

of its standard offering, delivering higher reliability and extended relay life.

Uncompromised Reliability & Service

Designed, manufactured and tested to industry standards at our state-of

the-art facilities, the Multilin 8 Series delivers maximum performance for

today’s most demanding environments.

In addition to the superior technology and innovative design advancements

that enable delivery of uncompromised performance and reliability, the

Multilin 8 Series is also backed by GE’s 10 year warranty plan.
