Width:  1.303" / 33.11 MM

Thickness:  1.358" / 34.49 MM

Plug-On Terminals:  Female .089" to .091" (2.26MM to 2.31 MM) Diameter, Spaced .459" / 11.66 MM OC (on centers)

Quick Connect Terminals:  .250" / 1/4" / 6.24 MM

According to the manufacturer:

3CR SERIES | MOTOR STARTING RELAYS

CURRENT TYPE GRAVITY DEPENDENT

Introduction

The Klixon® 3CR series current type motor starting relay is designed for single-phase AC applications with motor start winding currents up to 15 Amps. It is applicable on both split phase and capacitor start motors. The 3CR relay can be mounted directly on the motor housing or at a convenient location away from the motor. Since the 3CR eliminates the space consuming centrifugal switch, motor size and weight are reduced.

Typical applications of the 3CR are oil burner motors, refrigerator and freezer compressors, dishwasher motors, and other appliance motors.

Product Points

• Small size for compact installations
• Long contact life - Designed for more than 1,500,000 operations at 10A and 600,000 at 15A.
• Rugged all-welded construction, plated external metal parts, and dust-tight phenolic case

Construction Points

The 3CR relay utilizes a steel armature centered in a solenoid coil field and bridging-type contact arm which closes by armature movement. All working parts are enclosed in a rugged case and air core construction is used to avoid residual magnetism. A double pair of contacts give two breaks in series to assure longer contact and relay life.

The 3CR relay is normal open with its coil connected in series with the main winding of the motor and its starting circuit in series with the start winding. When voltage is applied to the motor, the high current through the main winding and relay coil creates a magnetic field which lifts or “picks up” the relay armature and closes the start contacts.

Increasing motor speed and related decreasing current through the main winding and relay coil reduce the magnetic force and the armature “drops out” to open the start contacts and disconnect the start winding.
