3RB30 / 3RB31 solid-state overload relays
3RB30 solid-state overload relays are available for normal starting conditions in tripping
class CLASS 10E or for heavy-duty starting conditions in tripping class CLASS 20E (all fixed
settings).
3RB31 solid-state relays are suitable for normal and heavy-duty starting conditions. A rotary
switch is used to set the required tripping class (CLASS 5E, 10E, 20E or 30E) dependent
upon the prevailing starting conditions.
The tripping times according to IEC/EN 60947-4-1, tolerance band E, are as follows:

Tripping characteristics
Introduction
The tripping characteristic curves map the relationship between tripping time and tripping
current as a multiple of the current setting I
for 2-pole loading from cold.
The lowest current at which tripping will occur is known as the minimum tripping current. This
must lie within specific defined limits in accordance with IEC / EN 60947-4-1.
The limits for the tripping current in the case of the overload relays with symmetrical three-
pole loading are between 105 and 120 % of the current setting.
Tripping characteristics
The limit tripping current determines the progression of the tripping characteristic curve up to
higher tripping currents based on the characteristics of the tripping classes (CLASS 10,
CLASS 20, etc., see the Chapter Tripping classes (Page 38)).
