Product Description

MOTOR STARTING

Two types of compressor motor starting are available:
Across-the-line and optional Wye-Delta Open Transi-
tion Starter.
Across-the-line starters will utilize one contactor and
one start relay per compressor. The optional Wye-Delta
starter utilizes 4 motor contactors, a transition delay re-
lay, a start relay, and a start-wye relay.
The Wye-Delta start allows inrush current to be limited
to approximately 33% LRA for the first 4 to 10 sec-
onds, with current increasing to normal running current
when the Delta connection is completed.
When the micro initiates a start signal at Terminal 20 to
run a compressor, the 1CR (SYS 1) or 2CR (SYS 2)
relay is energized. The transition of the 1CR (SYS 1) or
2CR (SYS 2) relay contacts energizes the 1S (SYS 1)
or 2S (SYS 2) relay approx. 16ms later. The 1S/2S con-
tacts in turn energize the 1M (SYS 1) or 3M (SYS 2)
motor contacts 16ms later. This completes the "WYE"
connection of the motor start. At the same time, the
normally closed 1S/2S auxiliary interlock contact opens
preventing the 2M (SYS 1) or 4M (SYS 2) motor
contactors from energizing. Auxiliary contacts from 1M
(SYS 1) or 3M (SYS 2) close, interlocking the 1M (SYS
1) or 3M (SYS 2) contactors, keeping them energized
in parallel with 1S (SYS 1) or 2S (SYS 2).
The "WYE" connection of the motor start is enabled
for 4 to 10 seconds depending upon motor current as
sensed by the microprocessor. Normally, the transition
to Delta takes 10 seconds if current is below 125% FLA.
If motor current exceeds 125% FLA, the transition is
made to Delta as long as the WYE has been enabled
for at least 4 seconds.
After the "WYE" connection is enabled for 4 to 10 sec-
onds, the 1TR (SYS 1) or 2TR (SYS 2) transition delay
relay is enabled by the microprocessor from Terminal
9. The 1TR (SYS 1) or 2TR (SYS 2) contacts open,
de-energizing 1S (SYS 1) or 2S (SYS 2). 1M (SYS 1)
or 3M (SYS 2) remain energized through interlocking
contacts 1M (SYS 1) or 3M (SYS 2). Opening of the
1TR (SYS 1) or 2TR (SYS 2) contacts closes the nor-
mally open 1S (SYS 1) or 2S (SYS 2) contacts, energiz-
ing motor contactor 2M (SYS 1) or 4M (SYS 2), com-
pleting the "DELTA" connection of the motor.

1 TR and 2TR are NOT "timing" re-
lays.
