Ls Electric 1298001000 Overload Relay 6.5A MT-32

Product Description

The LS ELECTRIC 1298001000 is a thermal overload relay in the Metasol MT-32 series, designed to protect three-phase motors from sustained overcurrent conditions. It is set for 6.5 amps with an adjustable range of 5 to 8 amps, allowing field calibration to match motor full-load amperage. Screw terminal connections provide secure, industry-standard wiring to contactor assemblies. This relay is installed by licensed electricians and industrial maintenance technicians in motor control circuits across commercial and light industrial applications.

The MT-32 overload relay mounts directly to compatible contactors in motor starters used in HVAC fan and pump systems, conveyor drives, compressor panels, and general-purpose three-phase motor control enclosures. Its three-pole design monitors all three legs of a motor circuit simultaneously, tripping on phase loss or sustained overload before winding damage occurs. The screw terminal expansion style supports panel builders working with modular contactor assemblies.

Key Features

• Adjustable current range of 5 to 8 amps covers a range of motor sizes without changing the relay
• Three-pole monitoring detects overload and phase loss on all legs simultaneously
• Screw terminal connections for secure, code-compliant wiring in control panels
• Part of the Metasol MT-32 series for contactor-compatible modular installation
• Thermal overload trip mechanism protects motor windings from sustained overcurrent

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style overload relay for use with compatible three-phase motor starters and contactor assemblies in the Metasol MT-32 series.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize and lock out the motor control panel before mounting or wiring the relay. Set the current adjustment dial to match the motor nameplate full-load amperage after installation. Verify trip class and reset mode settings are appropriate for the application before returning the circuit to service.
