Product details

Rated for 690 V and 50/60 Hz operation, it covers the common industrial voltage range up to 690 V line-to-line.

Mounts directly onto a contactor via the contactor mounting fastening method — no DIN rail needed, saving panel space. Accepts any mounting position. Main circuit connections use ring cable lugs with M4 screws; the auxiliary switch is integrated, no separate block needed.

The thermal overload release is temperature-compensated from -40 to +60 °C, so the trip curve stays accurate even in a hot panel or cold environment. Auxiliary contact ratings are given at multiple voltages: 2 A at 24 V, 3 A at 120 V, 2 A at 230 V, 1 A at 400 V — these are the switching capacities for the signal circuit feeding the PLC or contactor coil. Power dissipation per pole is 2.7 W, which matters for thermal management inside a sealed enclosure — three poles dissipate about 8.1 W total. MTTF of 2,280 years under high demand rate.

The note "for message 'Tripped'" on the relay indicates the auxiliary contact position that signals a trip condition to the control system — a standard feature, not a special marking. Substance prohibitance date of 10/01/2009 confirms RoHS compliance.

Frequently asked questions

What does the note 'for message Tripped' mean?

It means the integrated auxiliary switch is wired to signal a trip condition — typically a normally-open contact that closes when the relay trips, sending a signal to a PLC or indicator.

What is the physical size of this overload relay?

It is size S0: 45 mm wide, 85 mm deep, 85 mm high.

Does it mount on a DIN rail or directly on a contactor?

It uses contactor mounting — it snaps directly onto a SIRIUS contactor, not a DIN rail. Any mounting position is allowed.
