Do not subject to sudden shocks or long-term vibrations.
Connection
Permissible cable cross-sections: Fig. III
Equipment circuit diagram: Fig. IV
In the case of several single-phase loads, the three main circuits must be
connected in series.
Commissioning
Instructions: Fig. V
¿ Set the scale to the rated current of load, use the "-" mark unless there is
a special description.
Attention: when mounted with contactor, 3US58-8X max current is 100 A,
using the "-" mark; when mounted alone 3US58-8X max current is 105 A,
using the "." mark.
À Reset button (blue)
Push this button before commissioning and after tripping to make relay
ready for operation.
In the as-delivered condition, the auxiliary contact is set to H = Manual
resetting.
To change from H = Manual to A = Automatic, press and turn the button
counter-clockwise from H to A.
Á Test button (red)
When this button is actuated, the NC contact opens and the NO contact
closes, i.e. a test function for NC and NO contacts (simulation of overload
tripping).
In the "Manual" position, the relay is reset when the blue button is
pressed.
In the "Automatic" position, the relay is reset automatically when the red
button is released.
 TRIPPED indication (green)
In the H setting, a green pin protrudes from the front plate to indicate the
TRIPPED condition. In the A setting, this condition is not indicated.
Tripping characteristics: Fig. VI
The characteristics conform to VDE 0165, VDE 0170 / 0171 for machines

Tripping times are shown for a three-phase load from the cold state
(ambient temperature + 20 °C). In the case of hot relays, preloaded with
1 x I

Operating conditions at ambient temperatures > 55 °C
At ambient temperatures > 55 °C, you must
1. Reduce the current loading for the overload relay
2. Upwardly correct the setting current to prevent tripping at motor rated
current.

Calculation example:
Motor rated current: 20 A
Ambient temperature: 70 °C
Overload relay fitted: 16 to 25 A
1st Step: Determine the permissible current loading:
Max. current loading: 25 A x 0.82 = 20.5 A
Loading with motor rated current 20 A at 70 °C ambient temperature is per-
missible.
2nd Step: Calculate the setting current:
Motor rated current: 20 A
Setting current correction: 20 A x 1.1 = 22 A
You must set the overload relay to 22 A.
