EL SERIES
SHOCK RELAYS THE ELECTRONIC SHEAR PIN
LOCKING ELEMENT STYLE Features & Applications External Lock Excellent for hollow shaft or space restricted installation. Easy to Install and Remove Installs or removes just by the tightening or loosening of bolts. No need to hassle with adjusting keyways and thermal fittings.
Pioneered by Tsubaki, the Shock Relay protects your equipment against unexpected shock loads, overloads, and underloads before damage occurs. The Shock Relay protects the mechanical parts of your equipment by monitoring the current draw on your electric drive motor, and shutting it down when the motor works too hard for too long. Advantages: • Back to work with the press of a button
• No moving parts, CPU design ensures repeatability • Precise set-points retain accuracy day-after-day • Permits problem notification by alarm or warning lights • Protect equipment that is up to 1000 feet away
MODEL NUMBER PL
Reacts only when there is a problem At installation, two set-points are made to the Shock Relay: • How hard is the equipment allowed to work as measured by motor amperage • Once the motor starts to work too hard, how soon in seconds must we stop production
The Shock Relay adapts to virtually any kind of equipment that’s driven by an electric motor and is used in applications in a broad variety of industries. Some of the common industries and applications are listed below:

EF METRIC SERIES
THIN PROFILE SERIES Features & Applications Same Inner and Outer Diameters as the EL Series Designed with the same inner and outer diameters as an EL Series POWER-LOCK ® Self-Centering These units provide accurate shaft-hub alignment and concentricity, allowing straight bore mounting. Simple Construction Constructed with only an inner and an outer ring and locking bolts. Simply tighten the bolts to achieve a completely secure connection.
THEORY OF OPERATION
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Shock time: The Shock Relay does not respond to excess current if it does not exceed the preset shock time.
Shock time: When excess current goes beyond the preset time the Shock Relay responds.
Start time: Within a set time, the Shock Relay does not respond to motor starting current.
