Electronic Overload (ABB)
Electronic overload relays are the alternative to thermal overload relays. An electronic overload relay offers reliable and fast protection for motors in the event of overload or phase failure. Starter combinations are setup together with block contactors and mini contactors.
Overview
Thermal overload relays are economic electromechanical protection devices for the main circuit. They offer reliable protection for motors in the event of overload or phase failure. Starter combinations are setup together with block contactors and mini contactors.
The thermal overload relays are three pole relays with bimetal tripping elements. The motor current flows through the bimetal tripping elements and heats them directly and indirectly. In case of an overload (over current), the bimetal elements bent as a result of the heating. This leads to a release of the relay and a change of the contacts switching position (95-96 / 97-98).
