Installation
Recommendations
Switch off power to the soft starter every time you need to work on the electrical or mechanical equipment of the system or machine.
A disconnecting device, such as switch disconnector, line contactor, etc. must always be included to cut off the power supply.
Never use the starter to drive motor power transformers.
Do not install the starter in areas containing flammable gas or explosives.
Do not place the soft starter close to sources of heat.
Do not use an insulating enclosure since they are poor heat conductors.
You can protect the starter's SCR's properly against short circuit only by using ultra-rapid fuses. To select the fuses, refer to the tables on the last pages of this manual. Note that when
the bypass relay switch is closed (i.e. motor running), the SCR's are protected against short circuit, overload and overvoltage.
Power factor correction
If power factor correction capacitors are to be used, they must be installed upstream of the soft starter, with a contactor and protection fuses. They must be engaged once starting has
terminated, and disengaged before stopping. The contactor can be controlled with a relay output programmed to “RUN”.
