Mode of Operation Motor voltage Ramp up time 4000 VACrms Power supply OFF The control module RSCHD0M60 is used with the output module RSO.. to achieve soft starting and soft stopping of 3-phase induction motors. Soft starting is achieved by increasing the motor voltage in accordance with the setting of the ramp up time potentiometer within the range of 0.5 to 30 s. Soft stopping is achieved by decreasing the motor voltage in accordance with the setting of the ramp down time potentiometer within the range of 0.5 to 30 s. The starting torque potentiometer makes it possible to adjust the starting level of the motor voltage to a value at which the motor starts to rotate immediately when soft starting is initiated. When the motor is fully operating, an output signal appears which can be used to connect a bypassing relay or contactor in parallel to the output module, thus limiting the need for cooling.

The RSO ..110 is designed for use in applications with high surge current conditions. Care must be taken to ensure proper heat-sinking when the output modules are to be used at high nominal currents. Adequate electrical connection between relay terminals and cable must be ensured. This gives: Control module: RSC-HD.M60 Output module: RSO 4010 Heatsink:1K/W Example 1: Power dissipation RSO 40110: Iload = 40 Arms = 111 W See previous page. Connection to the mains Since no motor protective circuitry is included in the RSC/RSO, the motor must be protected in the usual way, i.e. either by a thermal relay, a PTC-resistor or a Klixon bimetal temperature switch near the motor windings. Example 2: Motor: 3 kW, ns = 1500 rpm, 3 x 400 VAC, 4-pole TA: 50C Starting time: 5 s The RSC-HD0M60 is used for both applications. The RSO ..50, RSO ..25, RSO ..10 modules can be used: RSO ..50, if the starting current is unknown for 5 s (starting time) and a large safety margin is required, RSO ..25/..10, if during starting the current is lower. For RSO ..10 the maximum current is 17 A for 5 s, and for RSO ..25 the maximum current is 39 A for 5 s. In this application the starting current is measured to be only 17 A with a starting time of 5 s. Consequently, an RSO ..10 is selected. The min. heatsink is 1K/W, and the power dissipation is 25 W. Note: The thermal conditions have now been designed for the nominal motor current. This means that the starting time should be less than 10% of the operating time of the motor. If short circuit protection is required, fuses F1 to F3 should be ultrafast and selected according to the load integral (I2t) of the RSO output module and the motor load.

When C1 switches off, the SSR automatically resets. Note: The induced voltage from the motor will prolong the reset, depending on motor type and load. Manual start - stop function If desired, an external control circuit for manual starting and stopping can be created by using push buttons. When the start button is pressed and held until the lamp B1 is lit (indicating that the motor is now running), a holding contact is made. The motor will stop after activating the stop button. U/T1 V/T2 W/T3 When the main contactor C1 switches ON, and the control switch S1 is closed, the motor will soft-start. When either C1 or S1 switches OFF, the SSR will automatically reset.

When S1 is opened, the motor will softstop. 5 RSC-HD0M60/RSO Applications (cont.) Shunting the output module This circuit limits the power dissipation of the SSR and consequently eliminates the need for a large heatsink, i.e. the power dissipation is limited to the starting and stopping periods. This is achieved by switching a contactor with the output signal from the control module RSC. In this case C2 is carrying - not switching - the current and can therefore be rated on the basis of the thermal current data of the contacts, which will result in a smaller contactor. The MS1 .. Power Supply connected to a motor controller (RSC) for soft starting/soft stopping of an induction motor. Note: However, if C2 fails, the temperature on the output module RSO heatsink may rise to an unacceptable level. It is therefore advisable to protect the RSO by means of an optional temperature limiting switch T1, which can be inserted in the housing of the output module.
