Application

The BN80-A97 is a bimetallic overload relay in the EE Controls BN80 series, rated for a current range of 75–97 A. It is designed to protect three-phase and single-phase motors from sustained overloads and phase-loss conditions by interrupting the control circuit when excessive heat is detected in the bimetallic element. Typical applications include industrial motor starters, pump panels, conveyor drives, and HVAC equipment operating in the heavy-duty current range.

The BN80 series overloads are designed to couple directly with compatible EE Controls contactors in the corresponding frame size. Because mounting footprints and clip arrangements vary by manufacturer, we recommend sending us your contactor or starter model number so we can confirm a direct fit — or identify a suitable adapter if needed.

The BN80-A97 has an adjustable dial spanning 75–97 A. As a general rule, set the dial to match the motor's full-load amperage (FLA) as shown on the motor nameplate. For motors with a service factor of 1.15 or higher, Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) permits setting up to 125% of FLA, provided it is within the relay's range. Always verify against the motor nameplate and applicable CEC rules for your installation.
