General Characteristics - tau SOFT-START BIG40Q Guía Para La Instalación

Soft-starters are static drives that allow the progressive start of three-phase electric motors.
INSTALLATION – ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The location for installation must be free of dust, gas and liquids of any type: the vaporised
liquids must not be allowed to condense under any circumstance.
A terminal block is available to connect the three power phases of the three-phase line (terminals
R-S-T) and the load outputs (terminals U-V-W): a second terminal block is dedicated to the
inputs of the start and stop control signals (terminals 2 and 3) as well as the selection of the first
and second start threshold (terminals 1 and 3).
The output connections with runs greater than 20 meters could cause malfunctions due to eddy-
currents: in this case inductors must be introduced in series with the output.

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

SETTINGS – CONNECTIONS
The 486A electronic control unit includes three setting potentiometers and one LED with the
following functions:
• POTENTIOMETERS
P1 (on the left) =
P2 (in the centre) =
P3 (on the right) =
• SIGNALS
Red LED = Power supply voltage signal that switches off at the end of the acceleration
ramp.
400 VAC +/-10% 50-60Hz
3 Amp. continuous duty
15 Amp.
10 per minute
-20°C +60°C
range from 0 to 90% of the nominal
range from 0 to approx. 10 seconds
end of acceleration ramp
Sets the acceleration ramp time.
Adjustable from 0 to approximately 10 seconds.
Sets the first thrust torque value when starting.
Adjustable from 0 to 90% of the nominal torque (the value
from which the acceleration ramp starts).
This adjustment is active if terminals 1 and 3 are open.
The first torque value should ideally be diminished the
greater the weight of the gate.
Unused.
