FAQ How do I set the motor’s full load current (FLA) on the CEFB1-12?The current setting, Ie(=IB), is configured using the bank of 7 DIP switches on the left side of the front panel. Each switch corresponds to an amperage value (1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, +20 A). You set the switches to the ON position to sum up to the desired motor FLA within the 20-180A range. What trip class is this relay, and can it be adjusted?The trip time (t) is set using the bank of 4 DIP switches on the right side. These switches add time values (2, 4, 8, 16 seconds) for a trip at 6 times the set current (6xIe). This allows you to configure a custom trip curve to match your motor’s starting characteristics. What do the auxiliary contacts (95, 96, 97, 98) do?These are standard overload relay contacts. The normally closed (NC) contact pair (95-96) is typically wired in series with the contactor coil circuit to stop the motor on a trip. The normally open (NO) contact pair (97-98) can be used to signal a fault condition to a PLC or an indicator light.
