2 CORRECT ENVIROSTART SELECTION
The
EnviroStart
must be rated according to the motor rated current (FLC).
However, on certain applications it may be necessary to oversize the unit to cope with the
maximum operating parameters associated with particularly heavy-duty operations such as
high repetitive on-load starts or elevated ambient operating conditions. (For this see de-
rating details shown on relevant specification sheets).
Please note that these environmental factors (temperature, ventilation, altitude, ambient
temperature & relative humidity) do affect sizing and failing to take proper notice of such
conditions will invalidate any warranty associated with the system as supplied. Where the
EnviroStart
is expected to operate outside the normal specifications and you are uncertain
as to the selection of a unit please contact EMS (European) or your local Distributor, we will
always be happy to assist to ensure your application is correctly supported.
IMPORTANT NOTE
THE ENVIROSTART MOTOR ENERGY CONTROL IS A SOPHISTICATED SOLID STATE
MOTOR SOFT START AND ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WITH A RANGE OF
INBUILT PROTECTION DEVICES AND MONITORING SYSTEMS IT IS HOWEVER NOT
A REPLACEMENT FOR PROPERLY RATED CURRENT OVERLOADS AND FUSES
WHICH SHOULD BE FITTED FOR MAXIMUM PROTECTION OF THE MOTOR.
