Eletrical Tip

This document discusses several types of electrical equipment that generate harmonic distortion, including switch mode power supplies, electronic ballasts, variable speed drives, uninterruptible power supplies, and magnetic devices. It also compares direct-on-line, star-delta, and soft starter starting methods for motors. Direct-on-line starting produces the highest starting torque, while star-delta reducing starting torque but cannot be used for high load torques. Soft starters can reduce starting torque to a minimum needed to start loads like conveyor belts. The document also mentions using RTD sensors with an XG5000 series device and includes a wiring diagram.

Comparison DOL & Star-Delta


& soft starter

DOL
Adirect-on-line startwith a normal squirrel
cage motor gives approx. 1.5 to 2.5 times rated
torque of the motor depending on motor size.
Gearboxes and couplings are also exposed to high
mechanical stresses. This result is considerable
wear and tear and often high maintenance costs.

DOL

Star-delta
This is a starting methodthat
reduces the starting current and
starting torque. It is not possible to
use this starting methodwhen the
load torque is close to the rated
motor torque during start

Star-delta

Soft starter
By using thesoftstarter, starting
torque can be reduced to a minimum
valuestill able to start up the
conveyor belt.
