Thermistor motor protection with temperature sensor

Operating principle
The temperature sensor of a motor can be connected to the soft starter and evaluated. If a
specific motor-dependent temperature is exceeded, the soft starter recognizes this and
reacts accordingly. You can set the reaction. The sensor cables can be monitored for
open-circuit and short-circuit.
Two different types of measuring sensor can be connected to the soft starter:
● PTC thermistors type A
● Thermoclick
You will find more information on the connection of the temperature sensor in Chapter
Connecting the temperature sensor (Page 210).
