£73.99
The Lovato 11RFA975 is a compact and reliable thermal motor protection relay designed to protect three-phase motors against overload and phase failure conditions. As part of the Lovato 11RFA9 motor protection relay series, it provides phase failure and single-phase sensitivity together with automatic resetting for dependable motor protection in industrial control applications.
Designed for direct mounting on Lovato BG06, BG09 and BG12 mini-contactors, the 11RFA975 enables a compact motor starter assembly without requiring separate relay mounting. Its Class 10A tripping characteristic, integrated test button and trip indicator provide practical protection and straightforward system monitoring, while one normally open and one normally closed auxiliary contact support integration with control circuits.
With an adjustable operational current range of 4.5–7.5 A and a rated operational voltage of 690 V, the 11RFA975 provides thermal protection for compatible three-phase motor circuits. Its IP20 frontal protection and robust industrial construction support dependable operation in machinery, automation equipment and electrical control panels.
Thermal overload relays such as the Lovato 11RFA975 protect electric motors by responding to sustained overcurrent conditions that can cause excessive heating and equipment damage. Phase failure sensitivity provides additional protection against abnormal phase conditions in three-phase motor circuits, helping reduce the risk of motor damage and unplanned downtime.
The 11RFA975 is designed to integrate directly with compatible Lovato BG mini-contactors, creating a compact motor starter assembly. Its automatic reset function, Class 10A tripping characteristic, test button, trip indicator and auxiliary contacts make it well suited to industrial machinery, automation equipment and control-panel applications requiring dependable motor protection.
