Applications

Belt conveyor

When material jam occurs, the low-speed forward and reverse functions can be used as appropriate to allow the belt conveyor to drive the jammed material back and forth to alleviate system jams.

Fan

Application of dynamic braking function:
Dynamic braking can be used to quickly stop large inertia loads and solve the problem of long shutdown time of large inertia fans.

Application of static braking function:
When the fan rotates due to external wind force, the static braking function can stop the fan first so that it can be started later.

Comprehensive moisture-proof and anti-corrosion solution.

Water pump

Unique pump control features:
Why is the pump control feature needed?
Pump systems are susceptible to fluid shock and surge during motor starting and stopping. The pump control function can effectively control the load current when the pump starts and stops, extending the pump life.

When starting:
In pump starting mode, the output voltage increases according to the pump load characteristic curve until the output voltage reaches full voltage.

When stopping:
The pump stop curve can effectively slow down the water hammer phenomenon caused by the pump load when it stops.

Application scenarios for pump cleaning:
When the blades are blocked by mud, the starting current of the water pump will be too large, resulting in overcurrent or overload protection. After using the pump cleaning function, the impeller is self-cleaned before the water pump is started to ensure normal pumping.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What start methods are supported by this soft starter?

A: The device supports five start methods: Voltage ramp start, Current ramp start, Pump start control, Direct start, and Kickstart.

Q: What is the difference between standard wiring and inside delta connection?

A: Standard wiring refers to the delta or star connection of the motor windings where the thyristor of the soft starter is connected between the power supply and the motor. Inner delta connection refers to the delta connection of the motor windings where the thyristor is directly connected in series with the motor winding.

Q: How does the pump cleaning function prevent failures?

A: The pump cleaning function provides self-service cleaning of siltation in the pump. This prevents overflow, overload, and other failures caused by a blocked rotor before the pump starts.

Q: Can the keypad be mounted remotely?

A: Yes. The device features a detachable keypad that can be easily removed and installed on the control cabinet door for convenient remote operation.

Q: What motor protection functions are built into the system?

A: It features comprehensive protection functions, including overvoltage protection, undervoltage protection, overcurrent protection, overload protection, stall protection, bypass fault, thyristor fault, three-phase current imbalance, and motor overheating protection.

Q: What are the cooling types based on the power range?

A: For units with power less than or equal to 55kW, natural cooling is utilized. For units with power greater than or equal to 75kW, forced air cooling is used.
