Starters Without Overload Relays for Field Assembly of Starters Using Bulletin 592 Overload Relays & 

These products are intended for field installation of Bulletin 592 Eutectic, or 592 electronic overload relays (select Bulletin 592 overload relays from E1 Plus Electronic Overload RelaysBulletin 592). The overload relays ship in a starter carton with provisions for mounting the overload relay (includes a starter mounting plate, screws/bolts, and instructions).

Eutectic Alloy Overload Relays — Overload relay codes do not apply. Use Cat. No. as listed in the product selection tables. Select heater elements from Eutectic Alloy Overload Relay Heater Elements.

& All Sizes — No overload relay.
Bulletins 520, 522, and 523 require two overload relays.
Bulletins 530, 1282, and 1283 require two overload relays. When selecting the proper electronic overload relay or heater, divide motor nameplate full load amperes by 2.00. Use this value to select the proper overload relays.
Bulletins 540, 1242, and 1243 have one overload relay. When selecting the proper electronic overload relay or heater, divide motor nameplate full load amperes by 1.73. Use this value to select the proper overload relays.
