Frequently Asked Questions about 140M-F8E-C32
Question: What is the 140M-F8E-C32?
Date Update:12/06/2025
Answer:

The 140M-F8E-C32 is a magnetic motor starter used to control and protect electric motors in industrial applications. It combines a contactor for switching the motor on and off, along with a thermal overload relay to protect the motor from excessive current that could cause overheating. This model is rated for a 32A current and operates at AC voltage.

Question: Where can I find the manual for the 140M-F8E-C32?
Date Update:12/06/2025
Answer:

The manual for the 140M-F8E-C32 magnetic motor starter can be found on the Schneider Electric website or in the user documentation included with the product. You can download the manual by:

  1. Visiting the Schneider Electric official website.
  2. Searching for 140M-F8E-C32 or TeSys magnetic motor starters.
  3. Accessing the support or downloads section for product manuals and guides.

The manual will provide detailed instructions on installation, wiring, programming, and troubleshooting.

Question: How do I adjust the overload protection on the 140M-F8E-C32?
Date Update:12/06/2025
Answer:

The 140M-F8E-C32 motor starter includes a thermal overload relay that can be adjusted based on the motor's full-load current (FLC). To adjust the overload protection:

  1. Locate the adjustment dial or selector on the overload relay.
  2. Adjust the dial to match the full-load current of the motor. This value can be found on the motor's nameplate or specifications.
  3. Set the trip class (e.g., Class 10, Class 20) to match the required protection time for your motor type.

Always ensure that the overload setting is configured correctly to prevent motor damage from prolonged overcurrent conditions.

Question: What are the key features of the 140M-F8E-C32?
Date Update:12/06/2025
Answer:

Some key features of the 140M-F8E-C32 motor starter include:

  • 32A current rating: Suitable for controlling motors with a maximum current of 32 amps.
  • Thermal overload protection: Built-in protection to safeguard motors from overheating due to overload conditions.
  • Contactor functionality: Provides reliable switching of motors in industrial automation systems.
  • Modular design: Allows easy integration with other components in motor control circuits.
  • DIN rail mounting: Can be easily mounted on a DIN rail for convenience in industrial control panels.
Question: What should I do if the 140M-F8E-C32 trips frequently?
Date Update:12/06/2025
Answer:

If the 140M-F8E-C32 trips frequently:

  1. Check for overloads: The motor may be drawing excessive current. Check the motor’s performance and load to ensure it is not overburdened.
  2. Verify the overload settings: Ensure that the overload relay is properly set for the motor’s full-load current.
  3. Inspect the wiring: Loose or faulty wiring can cause intermittent trips. Ensure all connections are secure.
  4. Test the motor: A faulty motor can cause frequent trips. Inspect the motor for mechanical problems, such as damaged bearings or blockages.
  5. Check environmental conditions: If the motor is operating in an environment with high ambient temperatures, it may overheat more easily. Ensure proper ventilation and cooling.

If the problem persists, consider consulting with a technician or Schneider Electric support for further troubleshooting.
