Schneider Electric LRD21 | TeSys LRD Thermal Overload Relay 12-18A Class 10A
Schneider Electric LRD21 (TeSys LRD) thermal overload relay. 12-18A adjustable range, Class 10A trip, 690V AC, 1NO+1NC contacts. For motor protection with LC1D contactors.
Product Overview
The Schneider Electric LRD21 is a thermal overload relay from the TeSys LRD series (also known as TeSys Deca). It provides motor protection (overload, phase unbalance) for 3-phase AC motors in the 12–18 A full load current range. Designed for direct mounting under TeSys D contactors (e.g., LC1D18 to LC1D38), it features ambient temperature compensation, manual reset, and a compact form factor for industrial control panels.
