An overload protection tubular motor is equipped with built-in mechanisms to prevent damage when the motor is subjected to excessive loads or strain. This safety feature is critical for applications like roller shutters, garage doors, or industrial rollers, where obstructions (e.g., a stuck shutter) or excessive weight could otherwise burn out the motor or cause mechanical failure. The protection system typically includes thermal sensors that detect overheating and cut off power, or current sensors that halt operation when draw exceeds safe levels. Once the overload condition is resolved (e.g., the obstruction is removed), the motor can be reset—either automatically or manually—resuming normal operation. This not only extends the motor’s lifespan but also enhances safety by preventing overheating-related hazards. The tubular design integrates these protective components seamlessly, maintaining a compact profile. Our overload protection tubular motors are engineered for reliability in high-use scenarios, with adjustable overload thresholds to match specific application needs. They are suitable for both residential and industrial roller systems. For details on reset procedures, load capacity limits, or compatibility, contact our technical support.
