Ls Electric 1324000700 Thermal Overload Relay 8.5A

Product Description

The LS ELECTRIC 1324000700 is a three-pole thermal overload relay from the Metasol Series, designed to protect motors and electrical loads from sustained overcurrent conditions. It operates at up to 690 volts with an amperage rating of 8.5 amps and a current setting range of 7 to 10 amps. The relay features a Class 20 trip class and a 1NO-1NC contact configuration, giving control circuits both a normally open and a normally closed output upon trip. It supports both automatic and manual reset modes. Licensed electricians and industrial control panel builders install this relay in motor control circuits where overload protection is required.

The 1324000700 is suited for use in commercial and industrial motor control applications where DIN rail or panel mounting is required. It mounts in a vertical plane orientation and accepts conductors from 24 to 10 AWG on its main terminals, with 18 AWG specified for the auxiliary contact conductors. The screw terminal design allows for secure, tool-based connections during panel assembly or field wiring. Its operating temperature range of -25 to 60 degrees C makes it appropriate for a wide range of indoor control panel environments.

Key Features

• 8.5 amp amperage rating with a 7 to 10 amp adjustable current setting range
• Class 20 trip class for motor overload protection with longer allowable starting times
• 1NO-1NC contact output supports both stop and alarm circuit configurations
• Supports automatic and manual reset modes for flexible fault recovery
• DIN rail and panel mount options with vertical plane mounting position
• IP20 ingress protection rating suitable for enclosed control panel installation
• 6 kV withstand voltage and 690 V insulation voltage for robust dielectric performance

Compatibility

The LS ELECTRIC 1324000700 is part of the Metasol Series and is designed for integration into motor control circuits requiring a three-pole thermal overload relay rated up to 8.5 amps. Consult LS ELECTRIC documentation to confirm contactor pairing within the Metasol Series lineup.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the control panel before mounting, wiring, or adjusting the relay. Conductor terminations use screw terminals; the torque rating for terminals is 7 lb-in as specified by the manufacturer. Verify that the current setting dial is adjusted to match the full-load amperage of the protected motor before energizing the circuit.
