Instructions for Use
CQR2 Series Thermal Overload Relay Panel Symbols and Functional Button Description

Trip Test (Performed BEFORE energizing the main circuit):
Open the cover. Press the test button with a screwdriver. The NC contacts will open and the NO contacts will close. The status change can be observed through the indicator window (yellow mark visible indicates tripped state; mark hidden indicates reset state – see illustration above).
Reset Mode Setting (Performed BEFORE energizing the main circuit):
The relay leaves the factory set to manual reset mode. To select automatic reset mode, press and hold the reset button while turning it clockwise 90°. It is not advisable to change the reset mode while the circuit is energized and running.
Setting Current Adjustment (Performed BEFORE energizing the main circuit):
The relay leaves the factory set to the minimum setting current. To select a different setting current value, open the cover and turn the current setting dial with a screwdriver. Align the arrow on the dial with the current value corresponding to the full-load rated current of the motor being protected.
Emergency Stop:
Press the Stop Button. Pressing the stop button only opens the NC contacts; it does not affect the NO contacts. Releasing the stop button resets the NC contacts.
