Eaton FH52 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will an FH heater fit my Eaton Type A or Type B overload relay?
Yes. The A200/B100 FH heater element is made for Eaton Type A and Type B overload relays, NEMA design, and is sized for Starter Sizes 1 and 2. If your starter is a NEMA Size 1 or 2 with an A or B series overload block, the FH element is the correct heater family for it.
2) How many heater elements do I need to order for one three phase starter?
Three, one per phase, all the same FH number. A three phase NEMA overload relay carries a heater in each pole and they must match; mixing ratings across phases gives inconsistent trip behavior. These are sold as individual elements, so a single three phase Size 1 or 2 starter takes a quantity of three.
3) Will the FH heater physically fit in the heater pocket of my starter?
The FH element measures 1.3 in wide by .8 in high, which is the standard A200/B100 heater footprint across every FLA rating in the series. Because the body size does not change from FH10 through FH57, swapping to a different amp band in the same starter needs no other change to the overload block.
4) What is the largest motor these Eaton A200/B100 heaters can protect?
The top element in the FH line is FH57, covering 41.6-45A. Above that you are past what this heater family and a NEMA Size 1 or 2 starter are intended to handle, and you need a larger starter size with its matching heater series. The next steps down are FH54 at 36.5-39.9A and FH53 at 33.4-36.4A.
5) Do I have to derate the heater for a service factor 1.0 motor?
Selection starts from motor nameplate FLA, and the FH bands are deliberately narrow so you land close to it. For a 1.0 service factor motor, electricians commonly step down one band to trip earlier, since a 1.0 SF motor has no continuous overload margin. The bands are close enough to do that cleanly, for example dropping from FH33 (5.15-5.6A) to FH32 (4.72-5.14A).
6) I need to stock heaters for a motor control center with mixed small motors. Which FH sizes cover the fractional horsepower end?
The low end of the FH line steps in tight increments for small motors: FH10 (.59-.64A), FH12 (.72-.79A), FH13 (.80-.87A), FH18 (1.29-1.41A), FH19 (1.42-1.55A), FH20 (1.56-1.71A), FH21 (1.72-1.87A) and FH23 (2.07-2.26A). For an MCC with a spread of small fan and pump motors, that group covers most fractional and 1 HP class loads on Size 1 starters.
7) What does thermal and fast trip mean on these Eaton heater elements?
It describes how the heater responds to overcurrent. The FH element uses a thermal and fast trip design, so it tracks the sustained heating of the motor while still reacting quickly to a hard overload such as a stalled or locked rotor. That is the trip characteristic for all FH heaters in the A200/B100 line, regardless of which FLA band you order.
8) Are the Eaton FH heaters ambient compensated?
The A200/B100 heater element gives ambient-compensated overload protection, with published ambient ratings of 26.3-28.7A and non-compensated ratings of 24.4-26.6A and 28.9-31.4A. Compensation matters when the starter enclosure sits in a hot mechanical room or outdoors, where an uncompensated element can nuisance trip on ambient heat rather than real motor load.
