Manual motor starter MS132

Manual motor starters are electrome-

chanical protection devices for the main
circuit. They are used mainly to switch
motors manually ON/OFF and protect
them fuse less against short-circuit,
overload and phase failures.
Fuse less protection with a manual motor
starter saves costs, space and ensures
a quick reaction under short-circuit
condition, by switching off the motor
within milliseconds. Fuse less starter
combinations are setup together with
contactors.

Application
The manual motor starters protect the load and the installa- The manual motor starters have a setting scale in Amperes,
tion against short-circuit and overload. They are three pole which allows the direct adjusting of the device without any
protection devices with thermal tripping elements for overload additional calculation. In compliance with international and
protection and electro-magnetic tripping elements for short- national standards, the setting current is the rated current of
circuit protection. Furthermore, they provide a disconnect the motor and not the tripping current (no tripping at 1.05 x I,
function for safely isolation of the installation and the supply tripping at 1.2 x I; I = setting current).
and can be used for the manual switching of loads.
