Why Choose the ABB EF65-56 Electronic Overload Relay?
The ABB EF65-56 Electronic Overload Relay (Part Number: 1SAX331001R1102) is a robust electronic motor overload protection relay designed to provide precise protection for three-phase motors against overload, phase failure and overheating. As part of the advanced ABB EF65 electronic overload relay series, it combines high accuracy, flexible settings and dependable performance for demanding industrial motor control applications.
Unlike conventional thermal overload relays, the EF65-56 uses advanced electronic sensing technology to deliver consistent protection over a wide operating temperature range. The relay is self-powered, eliminating the need for an external control supply, while selectable trip classes provide flexibility for different motor starting characteristics. It mounts directly onto compatible ABB AF contactors for quick and straightforward installation.
With an adjustable current setting range of 20-56 A, integrated auxiliary contacts and industrial-grade construction, the EF65-56 is ideally suited for protecting larger motors used in conveyors, pumps, compressors, HVAC systems, process equipment and industrial automation machinery.
