Why Choose the IMO MT5-91-100 Thermal Overload Relay?
The IMO MT5-91-100 is a heavy-duty thermal overload relay designed to provide dependable protection for three-phase electric motors operating in demanding industrial applications. It protects motors against prolonged overload conditions and phase-loss faults, helping prevent overheating, reduce downtime and extend equipment service life.
With an adjustable current range of 91–100 A, the MT5-91-100 enables precise motor protection by allowing the overload setting to be matched to the motor's full-load current. This makes it suitable for larger industrial motors used in manufacturing, material handling and process control equipment.
Designed for direct installation with compatible IMO contactors, the MT5-91-100 combines compact construction, reliable operation and selectable manual or automatic reset functionality, making it ideal for motor starter assemblies, electrical control panels and motor control centres.
