Thermal units sense heat generated by current flow through a bimetallic element, tripping the overload relay when sustained overcurrent conditions are detected. This protects motors and downstream equipment from damage caused by overloads or single-phasing events. The A1.75 is a compact, single-package component intended for installation by licensed electricians or qualified industrial maintenance technicians during contactor assembly or field service of motor control centers and panel-mounted starters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThermal units like the A1.75 are used in residential, commercial, and light industrial motor control applications wherever a contactor-based starter requires overload protection. Typical installations include HVAC compressor starters, pump motor panels, conveyor controls, and other fractional to integral horsepower motor circuits. The unit snaps or inserts into the overload relay block mounted on a compatible SQUARE D contactor, allowing field selection of the appropriate heater element for the motor full-load amperage rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThermal overload sensing protects motors from sustained overcurrent and single-phase conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor fits within standard contactor overload relay blocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-unit package quantity supports exact replacement without excess inventory\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBimetallic thermal element provides reliable trip response proportional to heat buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM-style replacement maintains original contactor protection performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement thermal unit for use with compatible SQUARE D contactor overload relay assemblies.

De-energize and lock out the circuit at the disconnect or breaker before accessing the contactor or overload relay block. Confirm the thermal unit amperage designation matches the motor full-load amperage rating as specified on the motor nameplate and the overload relay selection chart. Do not energize the circuit until the overload relay cover is fully seated and all conductors are properly terminated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccessory Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Thermal Unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SQUARE D\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: A1.75\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539439681842,"sku":"A1.75","price":45.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/711643bed0fae375888eb69ab8f16262.jpg?v=1785840300","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/square-d-a1-75-contactor-thermal-overload-unit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
