IntroductionThe Baldor digital three phase multipurpose soft–starter provides reduced voltage, three
phase motor starting and control over the four periods of motor operation. First, at
“Start–up” (soft–start), the motor starting voltage increases from an initial preset level to
full motor voltage to provide smooth motor acceleration to full speed. Second, the “Dwell”
period begins when maximum motor voltage is achieved. This dwell period allows time
for the motor and load to stabilize. The third period is called “Motor run” (sometimes
bypass is used during this portion of the cycle). The last period is “Stop” the motor can
be stopped gradually by reducing the torque (useful in pump applications).
Soft–start and soft–stop control provide an effective means to start and stop material
handling equipment and pumping equipment to minimize spillage and water hammer
problems. Selectable preset parameters for specific application allows simple
programming.
Several product features make this digital soft–start control easy to use:
SSelectable preset parameter settings for pumps, high inertia loads, conveyors
and compressors.
SAuto features simplify adjustments for optimum starting.
SEnergy savings through real time power factor monitoring.
SSmooth starts and stops for impact free machine operation.
SFamiliar interface, 32 character LCD Display and Keypad.
SSimple parameter access through 4 level programming.
SQuick exit from programming by using the “#” (Exit) button.
SOperating Current, Voltage and Power Factor displays.
SFault indication and Trip Log.
SProgrammable inputs and outputs.

Installation
Receiving, Inspection and Storage
When you receive your control, there are several things you should do immediately.
1.Observe the condition of the shipping container and report any damage
immediately to the commercial carrier that delivered your control.
2.Remove the control from the carton. Inspect for shipping damage and report
any damage immediately to your commercial carrier.
3.Verify that the part number of the control you received is the same as the part
number listed on your purchase order.
4.If the control is to be stored for several weeks before use, be sure that it is
stored in a location that is clean, dry and free from corrosives and
contaminants. Storage temperature range is –25°C to 55°C.
Be sure to read an become familiar with the safety notices in Section 1 of this manual.
Failure to observe the product safety notices can result in injury or equipment damage.
If you have questions, please contact your Baldor distributor. Do not proceed unless you
understand the installation and operation requirements and safety notices.
Physical LocationThe location of the soft–start control is important. It should be installed in an area that is
protected from direct sunlight, corrosives, harmful gases or liquids, dust, metallic
particles, and vibration. Exposure to these elements can reduce the operating life and
degrade performance of the control.
Several other factors should be carefully evaluated when selecting a location for
installation:
1.For effective cooling and maintenance, the control should be mounted vertically
on a flat, smooth, non-flammable vertical surface. Heat dissipation of 3.3 watts
per running FLA of the motor must be provided. All factory supplied enclosures
provided adequate heat dissipation with ambient temperatures to 40°C.
2.If the control is mounted in an enclosure, sufficient air flow must be provided
(see Table 2-1). The fan or blower must be rated for at least 0.8 cubic feet of
30°C air per minute for each ampere of motor FLA rating.
3.Keep high voltage and low voltage wiring separated. If the conduits must
cross, be sure that they cross at 90° angles only.
4.Motor overload protection is required for motor branch circuits that do not have
an overload protection device.
5.Front access must be provided to allow the control cover to be opened or
removed for service and to allow viewing of the Keypad Display (1 inch (25mm)
minimum).
6.Altitude derating. Up to 3300 feet (1000 meters), no derating required. Above
3300 feet, derate peak output current by 1% for each 330 feet above 3300 feet.
6600 feet (2000 meters) maximum.
7.Temperature derating. Up to 40°C, no derating required. Above 40°C, derate
full load current by 2% per °C above 40°C.
Maximum ambient is 60°C (at 40% derate).
8.Short circuit current and overcurrent devices are required for soft–start controls
that do not have a circuit breaker or fusible disconnect switch.
9.Dust–proof NEMA 12, NEMA 4 non–ventilated enclosure will require an end of
ramp Bypass contactor. This requires additional hardware. Refer to Figure 2-6
for details.

Motor Overload and Thermal Protection
NEC and local codes may require thermal motor overload protection devices be installed
rather than rely only on internal protection devices. Devices such as bi–metallic overload
relays may require special Soft–Start settings (such as during low voltage starting to
prevent heating). Use of electronic overload relays with this control is not recommended
because of the distorted current waveform. A motor with built in thermal cutoff switches
(TSTAT’s) is recommended.

NEMA 12/4 InstallationWhen a NEMA12, NEMA4, NEMA4x OR IP65 enclosure is used, a separate Top of Ramp
Bypass (or shunt) contactor must be connected in parallel with the soft–start control. This
will allow a solid connection of the motor to the AC power lines and eliminate the heating
effect caused by the SCR’s. At the completion of the start ramp (when full start voltage is
obtained) a Bypass contactor is closed. This contactor is controlled by the “Top of Ramp”
relay K2. This ensures that bypass will only occur when motor voltage equals the AC line
voltage.

fused. Refer to Table 2-3 for ratings.
7.Be sure to set the 115/230VAC switch (Control Voltage Selector Switch) to the
115VAC position.
8.* Connect earth ground to the “GND” of the control. Be sure to comply with local
codes.
9.Connect the motor leads to terminals T1, T2, and T3.
10. * Connect motor ground wire to the “GND” of the control. Be sure to comply
with all applicable codes.
11. Connect the S0, S1, K1 and K2 control terminals as required for your
installation.
12. Verify the input line voltage is correct.
13. Verify the Control Voltage is correct and that the selector switch is correctly set.
14. Complete any optional wiring connections that may be needed for your
installation.
15. Install cover.
*Grounding by using conduit or panel connection is not adequate. A separate
conductor of the proper size must be used as a ground conductor.

Section 3
Operation
OverviewThe start–up procedure will help get your system up and running quickly and will allow
motor and control operation to be verified. This procedure assumes that the Control and
Motor are correctly installed (see Section 2 for procedures) and that you have a basic
understanding of the keypad programming & operation procedures.
1.Read the Safety Notice and Precautions in section 1 of this manual.
2.Mount the control.
3.Be sure the cover is on and the keypad is plugged in but all power is OFF.
4.Connect Three Phase AC power (L1, L2, L3).
5.Connect 115VAC 1 phase power (X1, X2).
Note: Factory assembled combination and non–combination controllers and
controllers in ventilated NEMA 12 enclosures have an internal transformer
that provides 115VAC power to X1 and X2 terminals (pre–wired).
6.Connect the motor.
Pre–Start ChecklistCheck of electrical items.
CAUTION: After completing the installation but before you apply power, be
sure to check the following items.
1.Verify the Three Phase AC line voltage at source matches control rating.
2.Verify the X1, X2 Control Voltage at source is correct. An external fuse is
required and must be sized as described in Table 2-3.
3.Verify the Control Voltage Selector Switch is correctly set.
4.Inspect all connections for accuracy, workmanship and tightness as well as
compliance to codes.
5.Verify control and motor are grounded to each other and the control is
connected to earth ground.
6.Check all signal wiring for accuracy.
7.Be certain all brake coils, contactors and relay coils have noise suppression.
This should be an R-C filter for AC coils and reverse polarity diodes for DC
coils. MOV type transient suppression is not adequate.
Check of Motors and Couplings
1.Verify freedom of motion of motor shaft.
2.Verify that the motor coupling is tight without backlash.
3.Verify the holding brakes if any, are properly adjusted to fully release and set to
the desired torque value.
