Description
The A-B 1336-TR-SP4A/A is a Thermistor Kit designed for use with Allen-Bradley PLUS, PLUS II, FORCE, and IMPACT drives with a voltage rating of 230 Volts. It is a Level 3 spare part that falls under the discrete components category.
Key Features:
- Thermistor Type: This kit utilizes a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor to sense the temperature of the drive’s heat sink.
- Temperature Monitoring: The thermistor’s resistance decreases as temperature increases. This change in resistance is monitored by the drive to protect the drive from overheating.
- Overheating Protection: If the thermistor detects excessive heat, the drive will take protective actions, such as reducing power output or shutting down completely, to prevent damage.
Compatibility:
- Drive Series: PLUS, PLUS II, FORCE, and IMPACT
- Voltage Rating: 230 Volts
- Frame Size: E frame
- Horsepower Ratings: 75 HP, 100 HP, and 125 HP
Part Number Breakdown:
- A-B: This likely indicates the manufacturer, Allen-Bradley (A-B is a common abbreviation).
- 1336: This could be a series or product code related to the thermistor kit.
- TR: This might stand for “Thermistor” or “Temperature Related”.
- SP4A/A: This could be a specific revision or variant of the thermistor kit.
