MFR 3
Multi Function Relay
Mains & Generator
Protection & Control

APPLICATIONS

Woodward's MFR 3 Multi Function Relay incorporates
functions and features for multiple applications with up to
14 generators, each with a maximum of 16 MW. Whether
isolated or in parallel with the utility this device was
designed for generators and switchgear equipment that
require independent protection.

The MFR 3 digitally measures true RMS values ensuring
measurement accuracy maintaining integrity against
harmonics, transients or power surges. Front panel push-
buttons allow direct control of power circuit breakers,
setpoint values, and configuration of the unit.

The MFR 3 is available for one (MFR 31) or two (MFR 32)
circuit breakers. Even if the MFR 31 front panel reflects
only one circuit breaker, it may operate two.

For utility parallel applications the combined mains and
generator breaker protection offer a very compact
solution. In addition to protection the MFR 3 offers
frequency, voltage, real power and re-active power
control allowing load/var sharing.
