Suitable for

• Protection of three-phase electric motors
• Industrial automation and control systems
• Power distribution panels
• HVAC systems and ventilation equipment
• Conveyor belt motor control

When it may not be suitable

This device is not intended for use in circuits where the motor current falls outside the 17-23A range, as it will not provide the necessary protection. It is also not suitable for applications requiring specialized protection against ground faults or specific electronic motor management features beyond standard thermal and short-circuit protection.

Key specifications

• Number of poles: 3
• Thermal release adjustment range: 17A to 23A
• Function: Overload and short-circuit protection
• Application: Industrial motor control

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical regulations. The device is typically mounted on a standard DIN rail within an enclosure. Once mounted, connect the power supply lines to the input terminals and the motor leads to the output terminals. After installation, the thermal release current should be adjusted using the integrated dial to match the rated current of the motor being protected. Ensure all terminal screws are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque to prevent overheating.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the motor's full-load current falls within the 17-23A range
• Ensure the device is compatible with your existing enclosure and mounting system
• Confirm the voltage and frequency requirements of your application
• Check that the environmental conditions are suitable for the device's IP rating

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the terminal connections for tightness and ensure the device is free from dust or debris to maintain optimal thermal performance. Periodically test the trip mechanism to ensure the protection remains active and reliable.
