The Moeller CL-PKZ2 motor protection component is a robust and reliable solution designed to safeguard motors from potential damage due to overload and short-circuit conditions. Engineered to handle a maximum short-circuit breaking capacity of 100kA at 500V, this device is an essential part of any industrial motor control system, ensuring operational continuity and protection.
Crafted with precision, the CL-PKZ2 is equipped with both thermal and magnetic trip features, providing comprehensive protection. The thermal trip function guards against motor overheating by monitoring current levels, while the magnetic trip feature offers rapid response to short-circuit incidents, thereby preventing equipment damage.
This motor protection device is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, including those with demanding requirements such as the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, mining operations, and petroleum and raw materials processing. Its versatility is further enhanced by its suitability for higher operational voltages, making it a preferred choice for systems operating at 500V and 690V.
The CL-PKZ2 is designed for ease of use, with a clear indication of switch positions and the capability for manual operation. It also allows for remote operation, which is particularly beneficial for installations where accessibility is a concern. The device's inherent short-circuit proof characteristic up to 100kA eliminates the need for additional upstream short-circuit protective devices in many scenarios, simplifying system design and reducing costs.
For applications requiring frequent operational switching, the CL-PKZ2 can be paired with contact modules, transforming it into a compact and high-capacity motor starter. This combination ensures a high level of protection while maintaining a compact footprint within control systems.
Overall, the Moeller CL-PKZ2 motor protection component is a comprehensive solution that offers both performance and reliability, making it an indispensable asset for protecting valuable motor-driven systems.
