Thermal overload relay is a bimetallic
device made up of two strips of different metals. The dissimilar metals in these thermal overload relays are
permanently joined. Heating the bimetallic strip causes it to bend because
the dissimilar metals expand and contract at different rates. The thermal bimetallic
overload relay strips applies tension to a spring on a contact. If heat
begins to rise, the strip bends and the spring pulls the contacts apart,
breaking the circuit.
Important performance characteristics to consider when searching for
thermal bimetallic overload relays include full current load range, trip
class, and temperature trip range. The adjustable current value allows the thermal overload
relays to be set to the full-load current shown on the motor rating plate.
This is the current range of the thermal component that can be adjusted to
the desired trip point. The trip class is the maximum time in seconds at
which the thermal overload relays will trip when the carrying current is at 600% of
its current rating. Other important specifications to consider when
searching for thermal overload relays include motor load phase, motor
voltage, control circuit voltage, contact or output ratings, pole
specifications, features, and environmental operating parameters. The motor
load phase can be single-phase protection or three-phase protection.
Salient Features of SKYU Thermal Overload Relays:
- The triple pole bimetallic thermal overload relay is of the
hand-reset type. It unmistakably indicates overload.
- A temperature compensation device prevents the relay from being
affected by variation in ambient temperature.
- The entire relay unit is housed in highly voltage tasted Bakelite
enclosure and is accurately calibrated and individually tested on an
automatic test bench.
- Setting can be adjusted by means of a pointer.
- Satisfactory operation at all ambient temperatures from -5 deg.C
to 55 Deg. C. SL1, SL2, SL3, SL-4, SL-6, SL-10, SL-12 relays are
manual reset type.
- These relays are provided with auxiliary contacts having various
thermal capacity
- These relays are suitable for direct mounting on Type SL
contactors. 16 Amps to 300 Amps.
