CLR has a long history in the development of displacement mechanisms in the electromechanical sector. Today we are talking about one of our latest projects in this field: a drive for automatic reconnection of the differential and the magnetothermic of our homes. A very useful solution when producing a Power cut off and we're not at home to return the light manually. Would you like to know more about this interesting electromechanical solution? Stay with us.

What were the main challenges of this project?

East customer, a company specialized in design and production of electronic equipment, I needed to incorporate a reducer motorreliable in a very limited space. Specifically, the gearmotor had to be inserted into a DIN rail together with the rest of the components of the electrical panel. This forced us to work on several designs to find the one that fit perfectly. On the other hand, CLR engineers had to take into account the enormous regulatory limitations that regulate the electronic control equipment sector; in addition to complying with security requirements established by the EU for this subject. The design in collaboration with our client taking as a reference your initial product and components. Thus, the Department of Engineering developed a adapted solution to all its different magnetothermic models for domestic use.

How does the automatic differential reset system work?

After the Differential trigger, the The switch is reconnected following a sequence of 3 to 6 reconnections (there are different timings between rearms). In case Reconnection is not possible, the differential is maintained Locked in shooting mode Until a manual reset Or by Remote control.As for the more technical section, the system includes two entries to act through voltage-free external signals. In this way, the Signs order the opening (O input) and subsequent closing or reconnecting of the automatic switch in question (input I); place where the CLR gearmotor. Thanks to this, these magnetotherms perform a function of protection against short circuits and overloads, in addition to serving as a remote cutting element.

Characteristics of the gearmotor developed by CLR

The Engineering Team from CLR designed a motor reducer due to mechanical locks able to offer a warranty of more than 20,000 cycles of use (more than enough to meet the customer's application needs).

On the other hand, the project met the highest security requirements in the industry, as well as with Norms of Flammability of plastics UL 94.Currently, thanks to the good result of this project, the CLR gearmotors are used in a multitude of mechanisms in this area of electromechanics; both in domestic and industrial applications. In fact, in the industrial sector, highlights the contribution of CLR in the design of remote disconnection and rearming systems for medium and high voltage lines (up to 400A). In particular, these solutions are used in numerous wind farms And in large electric platforms from Spain.
