Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Can this starter handle a 50 HP motor on a 480V system?

Yes, it can. For a delta-connected motor at 460-480V AC, the controller supports up to 75 HP, making it suitable for a 50 HP application with capacity to spare.

• What is the main advantage of using a smart motor controller over a traditional starter?

A smart controller like the Bulletin 150 reduces mechanical stress on motors and belts. It provides smooth acceleration and deceleration, which extends equipment life and reduces maintenance.

• Do I need external overload protection with this unit?

The controller has integrated electronic motor overload protection. However, we always recommend consulting your system design and local regulations for complete protection requirements.

• Is the 24V control power sourced internally or supplied externally?

The control voltage must be supplied externally from your panel's 24V AC or DC power supply, providing flexibility in system design.

• We have voltage dips on our site. Will this affect the controller?

The wide input voltage range (200-480V AC) provides good tolerance for minor dips. For severe or frequent sags, we recommend a site power quality review alongside the controller installation.
