1. Product Overview
The LRD series thermal overload relay is an official matched protection component for LC1D three-phase AC contactors, designed to provide all-round safety protection for asynchronous three-phase motors. The full series covers an ultra-wide adjustable current range of 0.1A to 65A, with multiple sub-models to match small low-power to medium-large industrial motors.
Manufactured under strict Schneider original standards and compliant with IEC60947-4-1 international & GB14048.4 national standards, this relay adopts bimetallic thermal induction principle with built-in temperature compensation module. It supports phase loss anti-burn protection, switchable manual/automatic reset, visible trip action indicator and standard 1NO+1NC signal contacts. Plug-in modular design enables direct quick assembly on corresponding LC1D contactors, widely applied in machine tools, HVAC, water pumps, compressors and automated production lines.
2. Core Product Features
1. Full Wide Current Range (0.1A ~ 65A)
2. Built-in Phase Loss Protection
3. Professional Temperature Compensation Design
4. Dual Reset Modes with Visible Action Indicator
- Manual Reset: Red STOP button, lock after tripping, manual reset required, ideal for manned high-safety equipment
- Auto Reset: Blue RESET toggle switch to switch mode, auto reset after cooling down for unattended circulating equipment
- Transparent window trip indicator clearly shows overload trip status at a glance
5. Standard 1NO + 1NC Auxiliary Contacts
- 95-96 NC contact: Series into contactor coil circuit to cut off motor power during overload fault
- 97-98 NO contact: Output fault alarm signal to indicator lights, buzzers or PLC monitoring systems
6. Original Schneider Craft & Safe Material
- High-purity copper plug pins, low resistance, stable heat dissipation, long service life
- Flame-retardant anti-aging engineering plastic housing, anti-interference internal circuit
- Plug-and-play structure, no extra installation brackets needed, save cabinet layout space
7. Authoritative Standard Certification
3. Working Conditions
- Ambient operating temperature: -20℃ ~ +55℃
- Protection grade: IP20, only installed inside indoor control distribution cabinets, not suitable for outdoor exposed, splash water environments
- Surrounding atmosphere: Free of corrosive gas, flammable dust and conductive particles
- Altitude: Stable normal performance below 2000 meters above sea level
- Vibration resistance: Tolerate regular mechanical vibration of production workshops, avoid continuous strong impact
- Humidity: Relative humidity ≤85%, no condensation on the relay surface
