“We use the CHINT 5.5kW starters across several production lines. They're simple to wire and stand up to tough conditions. The 240V coil suits our control panels perfectly.” – Electrical Engineer, Midlands UK
No, the CHINT NQ3-5.5P 240V does not come with an overload relay included. You will need to purchase a compatible unit such as the CHINT NR2 series separately for motor protection.
The IP55 enclosure provides protection against dust and water jets, making it suitable for sheltered outdoor installations. For direct weather exposure, additional protection is recommended.
