Schneider Electric LRD16 TeSys LRD Thermal Overload Relay – 9–13A, Class 10A
The Schneider Electric LRD16 is a TeSys LRD differential thermal overload relay with an adjustable 9–13A thermal protection range and Class 10A tripping characteristic according to IEC 60947-4-1. It is designed for motor overload and phase-failure protection and is suitable for use with compatible TeSys D contactors.
Description
The Schneider Electric LRD16 TeSys LRD thermal overload relay provides reliable protection for AC motors against overload conditions and phase failure. Its adjustable 9 to 13A current range allows the relay to be set according to the motor’s rated operating current, while the Class 10A characteristic provides standard motor overload protection.
The LRD16 differential thermal overload relay can be used with compatible Schneider Electric TeSys D contactors, including LC1D12, LC1D18, LC1D25, LC1D32 and LC1D38. It supports AC and DC network types, operates on networks from 0–400Hz, and has a rated operational voltage of 690V AC for the power circuit.
The relay features 1NO + 1NC auxiliary contacts, phase-failure sensitivity, manual stop/reset controls and multiple mounting options. Its 9–13A adjustment range, 6kV impulse withstand voltage and IP20 protection make it suitable for industrial motor starters and control panels.
