TD Series
Digital Solid State Soft Starter 48 - 1250A
1.1 General
The TD Series is a digitally programmable solid state reduced voltage
soft starter. Its six SCR design features a voltage/current ramp with an
anti-oscillation circuit for smooth load acceleration. The SCRs are sized
to withstand starting currents of 500% for 60 seconds (compared to
350% for 30 seconds from other manufacturers). The TD Series features
smooth, stepless ramp control which reduces motor inrush current and
excessive wear on the mechanical drive train components. In addition to
having easy to understand diagnostic LEDs, the TD Series includes a
programmable keypad for setting operating parameters for the ideal
starting cycle. Starting torque, ramp time, current limit, dual ramp, and
decel control are standard features on the TD Series. By simply adjusting
the unit’s starting torque, ramp time and current limit functions, the starting
electrical characteristics of the motor can be matched to the mechanical
characteristics of the drive train for controlled acceleration of the load.
The TD Series includes solid state electronic overload protection in
addition to numerous other protective features. It is factory wired for 120
VAC control voltage and two or three-wire start/stop control (Units can
also be ordered with 240 VAC control voltage if required). Programmable
auxiliary contacts and provisions for interlocking are also included.
