Chicago Pneumatic 1089944614 OEM Overload Relay, 12.5-50 Amps 3RB2036 by Siemens
The Chicago Pneumatic 1089944614 OEM overload relay is used primarily on the QRS10 and QRS15 rotary screw compressors that operate on three phase power. This is an OEM part manufactured by Siemens that may be labeled 3RB2036 and used by Chicago Pneumatic. This was also a common part used on a variety of Atlas Copco and Quincy air compressors.
The part number may be displayed in your manual as 1089 9446 14 , 1089-9446-14, or 1089944614.
There is a blue reset buttom. This can also be toggled between manual and automatic reset. When in manual mode the reset must by physically pushed in after the thermal trips.
The thermal overload relay will trip and cut power to the motor if the amperage spikes, preventing damage to the motor and the compressor. This typically needs to be replaced if the overload is shutting down the compressor prematurely before the amp draw reaches the trip set point. The amp range is adjustable between 12.5 and 50 amps.
This is an OEM part. Several different overloads were used during the years by Chicago Pneumatic. Please contact us with your serial number for confirmation this item will work with your rotary screw air compressor.
