Expert Questions & Answers

• What is the advantage of multiple start modes?

Different applications need different starting methods. Multiple modes let you match the starting method to your specific equipment requirements.

• How does the i2t Algorithm protect motors?

The i2t Algorithm calculates thermal energy in the motor. It prevents overheating by monitoring current over time and predicting temperature rise.

• What certifications does this controller have?

The 150-F201NBR carries CCC, c-UL-us, UL, and CE certifications. These ensure compliance with international safety standards.

• Why is a minimum enclosure size specified?

Adequate enclosure space ensures proper heat dissipation and allows for safe electrical clearances between components.

• What types of motors work with this controller?

This controller works with standard squirrel-cage induction motors. It does not support other motor types like synchronous or wound rotor motors.
