⚡ Key Features

Adjustable current range 9–13 A — set to the motor nameplate FLC for accurate overload detection; range covers multiple motor sizes from a single relay model.
Class 10A trip class — trips within 10 seconds at 7.2× FLC; standard for normal-start motors (fans, pumps, compressors) where starting time is under 10 seconds.
Bimetal thermal element with phase-loss sensitivity — independently monitors each phase; trips if any phase carries more than ~115% of the set current, or on complete phase failure.
Normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) auxiliary contacts built in — NO contact wired to motor run indicator; NC contact wired to PLC fault input or motor starter stop circuit.
Direct clip-on mounting to TeSys LC1 contactors — no external wiring between overload and contactor; forms a complete IEC 60947-4-1 DOL motor starter combination.
Manual/automatic reset selectable — set to manual for attended machinery requiring operator acknowledgement; auto-reset for unattended remote installations.
Manufactured to IEC 60947-4-1 / IS 13947-4-1 — complies with the applicable Indian BIS and IEC international standards for this product category.
BIS certified, CE marked, RoHS compliant — meets Indian regulatory requirements for use in government, commercial, and industrial electrical installations.
Genuine authorised Schneider Electric product — sourced directly from the official distribution network with full manufacturer traceability and warranty.
GST invoice provided for India orders — valid for corporate procurement, government project orders, and public tender supply via myelectric.in.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I set the 9–13 A adjustable range on the LRE16 for my motor?

A: Turn the setting dial to the motor’s nameplate full-load current (FLC) — the FLC must fall within the 9–13 A range of this device. Setting it at the motor FLC (not the maximum of the range) gives correct overload trip timing while still riding through normal starting inrush. If the motor FLC is outside this range, select the adjacent rating in the same series.

Q: How do I set the LRE16 to protect a motor without causing nuisance trips on starting?

A: Set the thermal overload dial to the motor’s nameplate full-load current (FLC) — ensure the FLC is within the 9–13 A range of this relay. For star-delta starters, set the overload relay to 58% of motor FLC (line current in delta = FLC × 0.58). Allow 10 trips for the relay’s thermal memory to stabilise before adjusting the setting.

Q: Does the LRE16 provide single-phase (phase loss) protection?

A: Schneider Electric thermal overload relays include single-phase sensitivity: if one phase is lost, the remaining phases carry higher current, causing the bimetal to heat and trip within the specified time. For critical motors, add a dedicated phase-loss relay for faster response independent of load — overload relay phase-loss protection is load-dependent and may take minutes to trip at light load.

Q: What is the difference between an Overload Relay and a standard MCB — and why use the LRE16?

A: A standard MCB protects against overload and short-circuit only. An Overload Relay provides thermal overload protection calibrated to motor FLC, protecting the motor from sustained overloads that would destroy windings before a standard MCB trips. Choose the LRE16 when the application specifically requires overload relay characteristics.
