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.
