Overview
The Gould G30T40 is a thermal overload heater element designed for use in motor starter and contactor applications. This component heater protects motors from overload conditions by responding to sustained overcurrent. The G30T40 is part of the G30T series of interchangeable heater elements commonly used in industrial motor control cabinets and starter configurations where thermal protection is essential for equipment safety and longevity.
Key Features
- Rated thermal overload heater element for 8.53–11.80A applications
- Designed for use in motor starters and thermal overload relays
- Interchangeable with compatible G30T series motor starter equipment
- Compact, drop-in replacement design
- New condition, factory-sealed packaging
- Compatible with ITE and Telemecanique starter platforms
Technical Specifications
The G30T40 heater element is a Class G30 thermal overload component. It is designed to respond to sustained overcurrent conditions and trip the associated starter or relay at preset thermal thresholds. The element’s amperage rating determines its thermal response time and protection curve, ensuring motors are protected within specified operating bands.
Typical Applications
- Industrial motor starters and contactors requiring overload protection
- Motor control centers (MCCs) and distribution panels
- Machine tool starter circuits
- HVAC equipment motor protection
- Process automation and production line motor circuits
- General machinery requiring Class G30 thermal protection
