Overview
The Telemecanique LR1-D09 is a three-pole thermal overload relay designed for motor protection in industrial control systems. This Class 10 bimetallic device provides reliable AC motor overcurrent and overload protection in circuits rated up to 600V AC, 50/60Hz. The LR1-D09 is widely used in motor starter circuits with contactors to prevent motor damage from sustained overloads and phase loss conditions.
Key Features
- Class 10 Protection: Fast-acting thermal bimetallic element ensures predictable trip times to protect motors from extended overloads
- Wide Adjustment Range: Multiple current rating options (LR1-D09 variants cover 2.5A–10A+ ranges) allow flexible motor protection across different installation requirements
- Phase Loss Detection: Thermal design automatically detects phase break conditions, preventing single-phase motor operation damage
- 600V AC Rated: Suitable for standard industrial distribution voltages and IEC 292 / VDE 0660 compliant
- Compact Modular Design: Three-pole configuration mounts directly onto contactors or DIN rails in confined panel spaces
