Technical FAQs
1. What is the main function of the 815-BOV169 overload relay?
It provides motor protection by disconnecting the circuit when overload conditions occur.
2. Is this relay suitable for three-phase motors?
Yes, it is designed for three-phase motor protection applications.
3. What does “manual reset” mean?
After a trip event, the relay must be manually reset before restarting the motor.
4. Does it protect against short circuits?
No, it only provides overload protection and must be paired with short-circuit protection devices.
5. Can it be used with contactors?
Yes, it is typically installed in series with motor contactors.
6. Is it adjustable for different current ratings?
Yes, overload settings can usually be adjusted within the device range.
7. Does it require external power?
No, it operates using line current sensing.
8. What happens when overload occurs?
The relay trips and opens the control circuit to stop the motor.
9. Is it suitable for continuous operation environments?
Yes, it is designed for industrial continuous-duty applications.
10. Is this model still actively manufactured?
It is considered a legacy or limited-availability model depending on region and distributor stock.
