ABB CR123H Series Overload Relay Heater Element

The ABB CR123H Series Overload Relay Heater Element is a thermal heater element engineered specifically for use with ABB CR101 series motor starters, providing the overload sensing component required for reliable motor protection in industrial control circuits. Each unit ships individually packaged (1 EA) and is intended as a direct-fit replacement or maintenance spare for starters built on the CR101 platform. This heater is a purpose-built part, not a general-purpose accessory, so verifying the correct heater selection against your specific CR101 starter configuration and full-load amperage rating is an essential step in any motor control installation or retrofit.

Key Features

  • Starter Compatibility: Designed specifically for use with ABB CR101 series motor starters as a thermal overload heater element.
  • CR123H Series: Part of ABB's CR123H heater lineup, matched to CR101 starter overload relay assemblies.
  • Packaging: Supplied 1 EA per package for straightforward stocking as a maintenance and replacement spare part.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Buy American Act (BAA) and American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) compliance status is available by contacting the manufacturer.
  • Sourcing: Country of origin is listed as unspecified (UKN); confirm sourcing details with ABB if required for project documentation.

ABB CR123H132A – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What starters does the ABB CR123H heater element work with?
The CR123H heater element is built for ABB CR101 series motor starters. It is the thermal sensing element that sits in the starter's overload relay assembly, not a general-purpose accessory, so it belongs in a CR101-platform starter and nothing else.
2) How do I pick the right CR123H heater number for my motor?
Heater selection is driven by the motor's full load amperage and the specific CR101 starter configuration it goes into, then matched to ABB's heater table for that starter. Pull the FLA off the motor nameplate and the starter's size/model off the starter, and order the CR123H number ABB lists for that pairing. The number that comes out of the old relay is the fastest confirmation if you are replacing rather than building new.
3) Which CR123H heater part numbers can I order?
Twenty-four CR123H heater elements are offered, running from CR123H055A at the low end through CR123H061A, H067A, H074A, H090A, H099A, H108A, H112B, H120A, H132A, H132B, H144A, H158A, H172A, H186B, H188A, H205A, H224A, H245A, H267A, H291A, H317A, H346A and up to CR123H680A. The number itself is the ABB heater code, so order by the exact suffix called out for your starter.
4) Is the CR123H sold as a single heater or a set of three?
Each CR123H heater ships individually packaged, 1 EA. A three-phase starter normally needs one heater per pole, so order the quantity your overload relay takes rather than assuming a matched set arrives in one box.
5) Will a CR123H heater protect my motor if I size it by horsepower instead of amps?
No. Horsepower alone will not get you the correct heater. Overload heaters are matched to full load amperage and the starter configuration, and two motors of the same horsepower at different voltages or service factors draw very different current. Size off the nameplate FLA.
6) Can I use a CR123H heater as a spare for MCC maintenance?
That is one of its intended uses. The CR123H is stocked as a maintenance and replacement spare for CR101 starter overload relays in motor control centers and industrial control panels. Facilities that standardize on CR101 starters usually keep the heater codes matching their common motor sizes on the shelf, since a burned heater takes a starter out of service.
7) Does the CR123H heater come in different colors and does that change the part?
Two color choices appear only on the CR123H132 heater, almond as CR123H132A and black as CR123H132B. Every other heater in the range is supplied standard. Color is not a rating difference, so order by the heater code your starter calls for.
8) I need Buy American documentation for a CR123H heater on a government job. Can I get it?
BAA and ARRA compliance status for the CR123H heater is confirmed directly by ABB, and the country of origin carried on the part is unspecified (UKN). For a federally funded project, get that confirmation from ABB in writing before you submit the submittal package.
