Switchingfrequency:
To avoid untimely tripping, TA and T thermal O/L relays have been designed to withstand roughly 15 switching operations
per hour with an approximately equal distribution between working and rest cycles.
In these conditions, the motor starting time must not exceed 1 second and the starting current must be lower than or equal
to 6 times the motor I
For intermittent operations, the diagram opposite species relay operating limits.
Example: Motor starting time: 1 sec.
Load factor: 40 %
Switching frequency: 60 ops./h according to diagram
For a higher number of operations and for load variations (e.g. frequent starting and braking), it is advisable to use
CUSTORAPID
For motors subject to particularly severe operating conditions (e.g. locked rotor) it is advisable to use protection combined
with a thermal O/L relay and the CUSTORAPID
Protection of motors with long starting time
See electronic overload relay section, pages 2.21 - 2.32.
Mounting position
On a support at an angle of ± 30° in relation to the vertical plane (standard position).
Other mounting positions possible, except mounting on a horizontal plane (in this case the tripping
mechanism would be located above the bimetals).

Tripping limits at ambient temperatures varying by + 20°C
Ambient temperature compensation
Thermal O/L relays are compensated against ambient temperature
variations by a compensation bimetal which is sensitive to the
ambient temperature.
Thermal O/L relays are designed to operate between – 5 °C and
+40 °C in compliance with standard IEC 947-4-1. For a wider range
of –25° C to +55 °C consult the graph opposite.
Example:tripping at – 25 °C. Tripping takes place before 1.5 times
the setting current.
Resetting:TA25DU – TA450 DU thermal O/L relays have convertible
manual/automatic resetting.
Delivery:in manual resetting mode.
