Monitoring of motor winding

With bimetallic strips

Connect the bimetallic strips directly to the switchgear or via an evaluation relay.
Connection values: max. 250 V (AC), 2.5 A, cos φ = 1

Trigger status for temperature controller and limiter

The installed sensor specifies the trigger temperature as part of thermal motor monitoring using bimetallic or PTC sensors. Depending on the thermal motor monitoring version, the following triggering status must occur when the trigger temperature is reached:

  • Temperature limiter (1 temperature circuit):
  • The unit must be deactivated once the trigger temperature has been reached.
  • Temperature controller and limiter (2 temperature circuits):
  • Once the trigger temperature for the low temperature is reached, the motor can deactivate with automatic reactivation. Upon reaching the trigger temperature for the high temperature limit, the motor must deactivate with manual reactivation.
