ABB TF42-0.74 Relé térmico de sobrecarga, Clase de disparo 10, 0,55-0,74 A, 3 polos, 1NO+1NC

Electric motors are vulnerable to overheating when overloaded, and without reliable protection, costly downtime and damage are inevitable. The ABB TF42-0.74 thermal overload relay solves this by monitoring motor current and disconnecting the circuit when an overload persists beyond the safe time limit. Set for a current range of 0.55–0.74 A and trip class 10, it offers precise protection for small three-phase motors, ensuring they operate within thermal limits.

Who is it for

This relay is intended for panel builders, maintenance engineers, and OEMs who need dependable motor protection in industrial control systems. It is particularly suitable for applications with small motors such as pumps, fans, conveyors, and machine tools, where space is limited and reliability is critical.

Main features

• Adjustable current setting from 0.55 A to 0.74 A for precise overload protection.
