Motor starter

starttec � tailored to the requirements of material-handling applications

The concept of the starttec motor starter is based on experience with the 8200 motec motor inverter and Lenze know-how about decentralised drive systems, creating a complete and seamless system for variable speed motors and fixed speed motors.
Advantages of the starttec motor starter over conventional switch units:

economic

• simple product range:
• one size for 0.25 - 4.0 kW power range
• soft start reduces the stress on mechanical components
• power bus reduces installation costs
• integrated brake control (option) with adjustable time delay reduces the load on the PLC non-wearing, even with frequent starts
• reduced downtime through error reset option

Reliable 

• commissioning without expert know-how
• reduction of high start-up currents
• integrated motor protection through overload or temperature protection (PTC/thermal contact))
• robust with high protection class IP65/NEMA 4
• high plant availability through error reset option
• status display directly on the starttec

Versatile 

• optimum accessibility through wall or motor-mounted design
  control via
  - digital inputs/outputs and/or
  - fieldbuses (INTERBUS, PROFIBUS DP, CAN (system bus), AS interface,. . .)
• collection and combination of input signals to be transmitted to the PLC/fieldbus
• two-motor operation or reversing (option)
• adjustable overload trips
