Description
The LR1 is a direct mounting type thermal overload relay commonly used in electrical systems to protect motors from overloads. It is designed to directly mount onto the contactor and is compatible with various motor starters. The LR1 thermal overload relay works based on the principle of temperature rise caused by excess current in the motor windings. When the current exceeds the set threshold, the relay trips and disconnects the power supply to the motor, preventing damage due to overheating. This type of relay is widely used in industrial applications to ensure the safe and efficient operation of electric motors and prevent damage to expensive equipment. Its direct mounting feature makes it easy to integrate into motor control systems, providing reliable protection and helping to extend the lifespan of motors.
