Overload Protection with
Mechanical Starter
Overload protection of the
motor is easil
achieved b
installin
a mechanical starter
on the suppl
side of the soft
start controller.
The overload provides the
necessar
motor protection for
an overload condition.
A short circuit protective
device is required to meet UL
requirements.
*Use UL specified backup
fuse.

Short Circuit Protection
Two t
pes of short circuit protection can be used:
short circuit protection b
circuit breaker
short circuit protection b
fuses
Short circuit protection is divided into two levels —
T
pe 1 and T
pe 2.
T
pe 1 —protects the installation
T
pe 2 —protects the installation and the
semiconductors inside the motor controller
Short Circuit Protection by Circuit Breaker
A 3-phase motor with a correctl
installed and adjusted over-
load rela
will not short-circuit totall
to earth or between the 3
phases. Part of the windin
will normall
limit the short circuit
current to a value that will cause instantaneous ma
netic trip-
pin
of the circuit breaker without dama
e to the soft starter.
The ma
netic trip response current is approximatel
11 times
the maximum adjustable current.
