1. Product Overview

The LR2-D series thermal overload relay is a matched protection accessory for LC1D TeSys AC contactors, designed to protect 3-phase asynchronous motors from overload, phase loss and unbalanced current damage. The full series spans LR2-D13, LR2-D23 up to LR2-D33, with segmented adjustable current ranges to cover 0.1A ~ 93A motor loads.

All models adopt thick pure copper plug pins for excellent heat dissipation and conductivity, dual manual/automatic reset modes, transparent adjustable current dial and standard 1NO+1NC fault signal contacts. The plug-in modular design enables direct assembly with corresponding LC1D contactors without extra brackets, widely used in industrial machinery, HVAC, pump stations and automation control cabinets.

  • Small factory power distribution cabinets, irrigation machinery
  • Automated production line motor drive control systems

6. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Which LC1D contactor matches each LR2-D model?

  • LR2-D12 full sub-models: Match LC1D09, LC1D12, LC1D18
  • LR2-D23 series: Match LC1D25, LC1D32
  • LR2-D33 series: Match LC1D32~LC1D95

2. How to choose the correct current specification for my motor?

Check the rated current marked on your three-phase motor nameplate, select the LR2-D model whose adjustable range fully covers this rated current value.

3. What’s the advantage of pure copper pins compared to iron plated pins?

Solid copper has far better electrical conductivity, generates less heat under continuous load, effectively avoids oxidation and loose contact faults, greatly extends relay service life.

4. Can all LR2-D models switch between manual and auto reset?

Yes, every model in LR2-D12 ~ LR2-D33 is equipped with a side toggle switch to freely switch two reset modes.

5. Does this series support phase loss protection?

All LR2-D series integrate phase loss protection structure. When single-phase power cuts off, uneven heating of bimetallic strips will trigger rapid trip to protect the motor from single-phase burnout.

6. Can LR2-D thermal relay work alone without AC contactor?

It cannot operate independently. It must be matched with the corresponding LC1D 3P contactor to form a complete motor start-stop and overload protection circuit.
