Relays that efficiently prevent engine burnouts, saving costly repairs.

Fanox designs and manufactures the most reliable protection & control relays in the market.
Products that efficiently prevent engine burnouts,
saving costly repairs and preventing dreaded and
unnecessary downtime in any important process.
The electric motor is one of the most important drives in industry, and plays a decisive role in the success of a production process. Valuable production processes and high value machinery can be completely paralyzed by one single motor failure. This poses the risk of great expenses, with the resulting costs significantly exceeding the cost of repairing the motor itself.
Experience shows that motor protection is still a novelty, and still not a priority amongst users. The high numbers of faults that occur every day are mainly due to overloads, locked rotor, phase failure or imbalance, heavy bursts of long duration or high duty cycle of operations, or overheating.
Over 60% of failures are due to causes not detected
by conventional protection systems, causing excessive heat in the windings, leading to a drastic
reduction of the electrical life of the motor.
The most significant technical advantages of Fanox
designed equipment is:
• Continuous Thermal image memory of heating and
cooling cycles of the engine’s starting cycles, work
overload and stops.
• The prompt detection of phase loss, even with the
engine running at low loads, stopping quickly to avoid costly breakdowns.
• Identification of trip cause. The relays indicate the reason for tripping instantly allowing you to identify and act quickly on faults.
