Thermally Protected Motor Wiring

The ge marathon electric 5kh series thermally protected ac motors come in a variety of shapes and sizes.

Thermally protected motor wiring.

The other 9 wires would be connected as in a 9 wire motor note in a 9 wire motor the equivalent of t10 t11 and t12 are internally connected together. The 5kh series comes with permanently lubricated bearings. The degree of protection that an internal protection device provides is classified in the iec 60034 11 standard. Always use wiring diagram supplied on motor nameplate.

Single phase wiring diagrams always use wiring diagram supplied on motor nameplate for motors without thermal protection single voltage single rotation single voltage reversible rotation dual voltage single rotation split phase motor. The thermal protector consists of one or more heat sensing elements built into the motor or motor compressor plus an external control device. The thermal protection is present to turn the motor off when excessive heat is generated within the motor circuitry. The type of thermal overload for which the thermal protection is designed 1 digit.

This safety feature halts the temperature climb before it can burn up the motor. Thermistor is a small non linear resistance sensors which can be embedded within the insulation of a motor winding to provide a close thermal association with the winding it s made from a metal oxide or semiconductor material. A motor s efficiency is a measurement of useful work produced by the motor versus the energy that it consumes heat and friction. Tp is the abbreviation for thermal protection.

This series offers several different horsepower options as well as thermal protection. Due to such symmetrical distribution when three phase power supply. On a 12 wire motor wired for high voltage i e 480v 10t 11t and 12t must be connected together but not connected to anything else. L1 to t1 l2 to t2 l3 to t3 t4 to t7 t5 to t8 and t6.

For understanding motor thermal overload protection in induction motor we can discuss the operating principle of three phase induction motor. Pacemaker danger magnetic and electromagnetic fields in the vicinity of current carrying carrying conductors and permanent magnet motors can result result in a serious health hazard to persons with cardiac pacemakers metal implants and hearing aids. The 64 watts lost 400 336 64w becomes heat. Thermal protection thermal protection overload.

Electric motor thermal overload switch location. An 84 efficient motor with a total watt draw of 400w produces 336 watts of useful energy 400 x 84 336w. Electric motor thermal overload switch location.
