IMPORTANT: This magnetic switch toggles a motor ON and OFF, and helps
provide thermal overload protection for the motor if operating temperature
gradually increases due to heavy work loads. The thermal overload relay inside
is not designed to cut power in the event of a sudden motor overload or stall.
To help protect a motor from this type of overload, this magnetic switch MUST be connected to a properly sized
power supply circuit with a correct fuse or circuit breaker.
OPERATION: The green push button switch allows current to go to the magnetic coil which pulls the contactor
closed. Main current now passes through the thermal overload relay and then to the motor. This relay monitors
motor current draw. If the motor begins to overheat, this relay breaks the magnetic field, which opens the
contactor and cuts current to the motor. The red push button breaks the magnetic field, which opens the
contactor and disconnects the current to the motor.
Electrocution or fire could occur if this switch is
not installed by a qualified electrician!

Thermal Relay Overload
Amp Adjustment Dial:
Turn this dial to meet your
motor manufacturer's
thermal overload amp setting
specification. Typically this
setting is 100-110% of what
is listed on the motor data
plate as the max amp load.
Remember, turning this dial has
no effect on increasing motor
horsepower. If this dial is turned
to an amp setting that is too
high, the motor can overheat
and be damaged before the
relay trips.
Manual Trip Test Lever:
If the thermal relay function is
in question, use a wooden stick
or dowel to slide the brown
lever to the right. If the motor
shuts off, the thermal relay has
tripped and is functional. If the
motor keeps running, the thermal relay contacts are shorted closed and
the relay must be replaced.
ON Button:
When pushed, power is sent
to the magnetic field coil and
the contactor closes and sends
power to the motor.
Reset Button/OFF Button:
Reset operation: If the
thermal relay has tripped,
push this button to reset the
thermal relay.
OFF operation: If the motor
is operating normally, this
button will also cut the
current going to the
magnetic field coil, which
opens the contactor and kills
power to the motor.
Manual Contactor Override Lug:
When pushed, the contactor is
manually closed for troubleshooting
purposes only.
