  • The Evolution of the Electronically Controlled Contactor
    A contactor is a device for controlling electrical current loads for motor control and other power switching systems. The contactor design allows the device to repeatedly make and break load circuits for several hundred thousand operations. Contactors provide isolation between supply voltage
  • Motor Starters
    : a three-pole starter for the ac stator circuit, a contactor for the dc field circuit, an automatic synchronizing device to control the dc field contactor, and a cage-winding protective relay to open the ac circuit if the motor operates too long without synchronizing. Synchronous motors require ac power
  • A crystal ball for motor controls
    Advances in device-level communications along with dedicated software let intelligent motor-control architectures provide useful information to maximize machine uptime. The E3 and E3 Plus motor-protection relays from Rockwell Automation protect single or three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors
  • Electromechanical Relays and Contactors
    contactor consists of a stationary core and a movable armature as in NEMA-A and B control relays. Some contactors are of the horizontal design; others have a hinged or pivoted clapper magnet. Coils are available in voltages up to 600 V, commonly in 110, 220, 240, 380, 440, 480, and 500 V for 25, 50
  • Application Note: EMX3 Sequential Motor Control (.pdf)
    The EMX3 can be used for installations requiring sequential starting of identical motors. Master control of the EMX3 and external contactors is achieved using a PLC.
  • Control panels get new ratings
    must identify which components are in the power circuit of the control panel. Basically, all components between the main disconnect and the control transformers require SCCRs. The standard specifically describes SCCR requirements for motor starters, controllers or contactors, drives, circuit
  • Lower Control Voltages Reduce Shock Hazard
    Motor controllers running on 24 Vdc, such as the Cutler-Hammer Intelligent Technologies (IT) Soft Starter, weigh only 9 lb and can fit inside an 18-in. motor-control center. The bypass contactor and the overload relay are integrated into the controller, saving panel space and wiring costs
  • Using Current-Limiting Fuses to Increase SCCR of Industrial Control Panels (.pdf)
    industrial control panels are. or circuit breaker opens and clears the circuit. Many UL. now marked and labeled with a Short Circuit Current Rating. approved individual power components such as contactors,. The Short Circuit Current Rating is the maximum current. overload relays, and motor control ers
