HOW TO ORDER
The model code listed below is intended to provide an example of how a given Tsubaki Shock Relay is configured. The most important aspect of ordering a Tsubaki Shock Relay is knowing the electric drive motor horsepower, voltage and amperage rating. As seen below, these three attributes are used to select the correct size range. Selecting a given series is a matter of preference based upon the features and benefits of a given Shock Relay series.

The above example for the TSBSB series Shock Relay is used to illustrate the various models within one Shock Relay series and How to Order a Shock Relay for your application. TSB: There are two families within Tsubaki’s line of electronic protection devices. The Shock Relay series begins with TSB. The Shock Monitor series begins with TSM. SB: The SB-series is one of five types of Shock Relays, each having slightly different features and focusing on different types of applications. While there is overlap between the Shock Relay series, the combinations of features such as ease of set-up, type of display, and communication options will make one Shock Relay series more desirable than another. See the preceding page for a delineation of the various Shock Relay series. 30: The numerical sizing of a Shock Relay series. The TSBSB series is available in seven sizes and for this series, the number relates to the max amperage rating for that Shock Relay. While all Shock Relays can be adjusted over a wide range of amperages, here are a few suggestions that will aid with selection: • Select the Shock Relay based on actual running amperage There is a tendency to oversize the electric motor for the application. For example, the motor nameplate may say 6 amps but measurement shows the application only uses 3 amps. Select the Shock Relay based on the 3-amp reading.
