Electrical data, connections and wiring
CSR wiring provides additional motor torque
at start-up, by the use of a start capacitor in
combination with the run capacitor. The start
capacitor is only connected during the starting
operation, a potential relay is used to disconnect
it after the start sequence.
Some applications with high differential pressure
and start duty as “soft serve ice cream machine”
can require CSR wiring. This configuration
can also be used to reduce erratic starting
at unfavourable conditions such as very low
ambient temperature or weak voltage.

It is important to provide sufficient time between
motor starts to allow the PTC to cool down
close to ambient temperature. Depending on
the ambient conditions and the cooling of the
PTC, this may take about 5 minutes. A restart
before the PTC is back to low resistance may be
successful or the motor may stall in a locked-
rotor state depending on the ambient and
system’s conditions. A locked-rotor state causes
the internal protector to open and would cause
even further delay until the overload is reset.
