Information About 140MG-G8P-C15

The Allen-Bradley 140MG-G8P-C15 is a Motor Circuit Protector (MCP) designed by Rockwell Automation under the Allen-Bradley brand. It is part of the 140MG Series of motor protection devices that provide essential protection for motors, motor control circuits, and related electrical components in industrial environments. The device offers reliable overload, short-circuit, and phase-failure protection for motors, helping to prevent damage caused by electrical faults, excessive currents, or power surges.

Key Features:

• Motor Protection:
  The 140MG-G8P-C15 is specifically engineered to protect motors from conditions such as overloads and short circuits, which can cause motor failures or permanent damage. It ensures that the motor circuit operates within safe limits and automatically disconnects the motor when fault conditions are detected.

• Adjustable Trip Settings:
  The device includes adjustable settings for both overload and short-circuit protection, allowing for fine-tuning based on the motor’s characteristics and application requirements. This flexibility helps optimize motor protection while ensuring safe and reliable operation.

• Thermal and Magnetic Protection:
  The 140MG-G8P-C15 combines thermal overload protection with magnetic short-circuit protection, offering a dual level of safety. Thermal protection responds to gradual overloads, while magnetic protection acts instantly to disconnect the motor during a short circuit or severe fault condition.

• Compact and Robust Design:
  Built to be durable and compact, the 140MG-G8P-C15 is designed for use in industrial environments where space may be limited, and reliability is paramount. Its robust construction ensures long-lasting performance in harsh conditions.

• Wide Voltage Range:
  The 140MG-G8P-C15 is capable of handling a broad range of voltages, making it versatile and suitable for various motor applications across different industries.

• Easy Integration:
  The device is designed for easy integration into existing control panels or electrical systems. It can be used in conjunction with other protection devices for a complete and comprehensive motor protection solution.

• Status Indication:
  The MCP provides clear status indication, making it easy for operators to understand the operating condition of the motor circuit, whether it is in normal operation or has tripped due to a fault.

The Allen-Bradley 140MG-G8P-C15 Motor Circuit Protector is an essential component for protecting motors and motor circuits in industrial applications, offering reliable performance, easy integration, and adjustable settings to suit specific needs.
