III. Life Estimation in Practical Application
- Calculation of Actual Contactor Life (Ejemplo)
Assumed working conditions: AC-3 utilization category, 100 operations per day, 300 working days per year
Theoretical electrical life: 600,000 operaciones
Annual operation times: 100 operations/day × 300 days = 30,000 operations/year
Expected service life: 600,000 ÷ 30,000 = 20 años (ideal working conditions)
If it is AC-4 utilization category with 200 operations per day:
Theoretical electrical life: 100,000 operaciones
Annual operation times: 200 × 300 = 60,000 operations/year
Expected service life: 100,000 ÷ 60,000 = about 1.7 años (severe working conditions)
- Estimation of Actual Thermal Overload Relay Life
Control Contact Life: With 50 operations per day, the theoretical 100,000 operations can last for about 5.5 años.
Heating Element Life: Under normal use (less than 5 overload trips per month), it can work stably for 8-10 años.
Overall Life: Usually determined by the life of the contactor; the thermal overload relay can be replaced as a wearing part.
- Practical Suggestions for Extending Service Life
- Selection Optimization
The rated current of the contactor shall be ≥ 1.2-1.5 veces la corriente nominal del motor.
For frequent starting/reversing conditions, select AC-4 dedicated contactors or use them with derating.
- Installation and Usage Specifications
Install vertically with good ventilation; control the ambient temperature within -5℃ ~ +40℃.
Keep the control coil voltage stable within ±10% of the rated value.
Set the adjustable current of the thermal overload relay to 0.95-1.05 veces la corriente nominal del motor.
- Maintenance Measures
Regularly clean the contacts and iron core to remove dust and oil stains.
Check the wiring terminals to prevent loosening and heating.
After 3-5 years of operation of the contactor, the contacts and coil can be replaced.
When the thermal overload relay trips frequently, check the motor load and main circuit.
- Resumen
Under standard working conditions (AC-3, 100 operations per day), the electrical life of the contactor in the Chint CJX2-6511 + NR2-93 combination is about 20 años, and the mechanical life far exceeds the actual service demand; the overall life of the thermal overload relay is about 10 años. The actual service life mainly depends on the operating frequency, load type and maintenance level, and may be shortened to 1-2 years under severe working conditions. Through reasonable selection, standardized use and regular maintenance, the service life of the equipment can be effectively extended and the replacement cost can be reduced.
