2308 forum posts 33 photos | If buying a new DOL buy from a reputable supplier, otherwise you may be wasting your money ! For the motor shown the FL amps is 3.8A. This value must be set on the overload cutout before use. Good luck. Noel. |

![]() 3676 forum posts 82 photos | WEG are a large Brazilian electrical manufacturer of motors an control gear, I would be pretty confident that their equipment is fit purpose and reasonably priced. My personal favourite control devices are Telemecanique which is part of Group Schneider but you do pay a premium price. Mike |
