I am experiencing an issue with a faulty motor starter unit, specifically the CA 4-9+CT 4 with O/L Relay CT 4-9. Unfortunately, the Sprecher website appears to be inaccessible. Can anyone suggest suitable replacements for these components?
I was unaware that they were still operating independently, but it appears their website is now live again. Visit Sprecher + Schuh's official website for all your motor control and protection requirements.
I came across a Cross Reference Guide after discovering that the CT 4 model is no longer in use. The guide can be found at https://www.sprecherschuh.com/content/dam/sprecher-schuh/downloads/xref/contactors/Series4_to_Series8_CrossRef.pdf. Many of the Sprecher products can also be purchased through Rockwell. I have not had experience with the CT8 products in the past.
After patiently waiting, I have received a response from Sprecher! Below are the details provided: 1 piece of CA4-9-10-24Z has been discontinued and the current replacement is CA8-09-10-24Z. Also, 2 pieces of CA4-9-01-24Z have been discontinued and the current replacement is CA8-09-01-24Z. Additionally, they have suggested the CT8-B25 as an alternative solution.
You might want to look into Siemens' offerings. They have a wide array of quality motor starter units that perform well and often tend to be universally compatible. For example, the Sirius 3RV1 model could be a good fit here. However, make sure to check all the specs, including your system’s voltage and current ratings before making a purchase. I also found Rockwell Automation's Allen-Bradley line reliable, worth giving a shot. It's frustrating when manufacturer websites are down, isn’t it?
I'd recommend looking into the Siemens 3RU1136 thermal overload relay and their 3RT1017 contactor as potential replacements for your current setup. These components match the broad functionality of your Sprecher units. However, ensure to double-check the specifics including voltage and amperage in relation to your own system requirements.
