Advantages

Mechanical

• Reduced cost of transmission components


• Low starting torque


• Starting torque adjustable to requirement


• Reduced maintenance costs


• Low starting torque reduces belt slip


• Lower repair cost


• Fatigue effects reduced (Star/delta, transformer and single-phase starting cause high torque peaks)


• Machine protection


• Electronic overload trip (with OPTION LS-I1)

Electrical

• Low starting current


• Advantages compared with star/delta


• Low maintenance costs


• Low-loading of contactor contacts with zero-current switching


• Only two voltage ranges


• 3AC 110...500 ±10% V


• 3AC 220...690 ±10%
