CONDOR SK-R3/10 Thermal Overload, 6.3 to 10 A, 3-Phase, 600 VAC

Condor SK-R3/10 thermal overload block is ideal for sensing temperature and provides quick tripping in case of overloading to protect electrical equipment.

Working Mechanism:

• When the temperature surpasses a predetermined threshold, often due to an overload or fault, the thermal overload triggers a response.
• This response involves cutting off the flow of electrical current through the circuit to prevent damage or hazards.
• After the temperature returns to a safe level, the thermal overload resets automatically or may require manual intervention.

Features:

• It has a voltage rating of 600VAC.
• This overload block has an ampere rating of 6.3 to 10A.

Compatible Accessories:

• Condor MDR3 Series Pressure Switches: They are suitable for activating or deactivating a circuit based on the pressure level of a fluid or gas, depending upon the operation. These pressure switches are used in industrial applications to control and monitor the pressure of gases, liquids and air.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What is Condor SK-R3/10 used for?

A. This thermal overload unit protects the motor in case of phase failure or overload.

Q. What causes thermal overload?

A. Thermal overload causes include a large change in load, misalignment, a broken drive gear, or improper motor drive settings. Power problems also may cause an overload condition.

Q. What is the phase configuration of Condor SK-R3/10 thermal overload block?

A. 3 phase.

Q. What causes thermal overload?

A. Thermal overload causes include a large change in load, misalignment, a broken drive gear, or improper motor drive settings. Power problems also may cause an overload condition.

Q. How does a thermal overload block work?

A.

• A thermal overload block works by sensing the temperature rise due to current flow and tripping the circuit breaker if the temperature exceeds a certain limit.
• The temperature is proportional to the current, so the overload block acts as a thermal switch that opens when the current exceeds a certain value.

Q. What safety precautions should I take when using Condor SK-R3/10 thermal overload block?

A.

• Read the manual thoroughly to understand proper usage guidelines and limitations.
• Ensure correct installation according to manufacturer specifications and safety codes.
• Avoid exceeding the maximum amp rating to prevent overheating and damage.
• Regularly inspect for signs of damage, wear or corrosion, replacing worn components promptly.
• Perform routine maintenance checks on associated equipment for optimal functionality.
• Implement emergency shutdown procedures in case of abnormal conditions or malfunctions.
• Provide proper training to personnel for safe operation and hazard awareness.

Q. Does Raptor Supplies offer a similar thermal overload block with a higher current rating?

A. Yes, you can check out Condor SK-3 thermal overload block with a current rating of 30A.
