Motor Start Limitation

Motor Start Limitation
Motor Start Limitation can protect system parts (motor, switching devices such as soft
starters, and converters) from too many start processes within a parameterizable time frame
and, thus, prevent damage. This is particularly useful for commissioning or manual control.
Schematic
The following schematic illustrates the principle of Motor Start Limitation:
Permissible Starts (CiR)
The maximum Number of Starts is set here. The time interval "Time Range for starts"
commences to run after the first start. After the second to last permissible start has been
executed, the "Just One Start Possible" prewarning is generated.
Permissible Starts:
Time Range for Starts (CiR)
The time range for permissible start processes is set here. The maximum number of starts is
only available again after the parameterized time range for starts has expired. The number of
available starts is shown by the analog value "Permissible Starts - Actual Value".
Time Range for Starts: 00:00:00 - 18:12:15 hh:mm:ss
