DS7 series soft start controllers,
Frame 2 (16–32A)
Introduction
Eaton’s DS7 solid-state soft start controller is an
electronic, self-contained panel- or enclosuremounted motor soft-starting device. It provides
three-phase induction motors with a smooth start,
both mechanically and electrically. The DS7 line
uses four silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs) that
are connected in a full wave-power bridge on two
phases. The voltage and current applied to the
motor are controlled by varying the SCR conduction period. This, in turn, controls the torque developed by the motor. After the motor reaches speed,
a bypass relay is energized to bypass the SCRs.
The DS7 is designed to fulfill the industrial service
requirements of applications such as chiller starters, pump panels, and machine tools. This device
meets all relevant specifications set forth by UL姞
508, IEC 60947-4-2, CE, C-Tick, and CSA姞.
This leaflet covers basic installation and setup. No
publication can take into account every possible
situation. If you require further assistance with any
aspect of this product or a particular application,
contact Eaton.
Inspection
General
Upon receipt of the unit, verify that the catalog
number and unit options stated on the shipping
container match those stated on the order/
purchase form.

carton damage to the carrier prior to accepting the
delivery. Have this information noted on the freight
bill. Eaton is not responsible for damage incurred
in shipping.
Unpacking
Remove all packing material from the unit. Be
sure to remove all packing material from the
lug location.
Check the unit for any signs of shipping damage.
If damage to the product is found after unpacking,
report it to the freight company. Retain the packing
materials for the carrier to review.
Verify that the unit’s catalog number and options
match those stated on the order/purchase form.

Storage
It is recommended that the unit be stored in its original shipping
box/crate until it is to be installed.
The unit should be stored in a location where:
•
The ambient temperature is between –13° to 140°F (–25° to 55°C)
•
The relative humidity is between 0% and 95%, noncondensing
•
The environment is dry, clean, and noncorrosive
•
The unit will not be subjected to high shock or vibration conditions
Mounting instructions
The DS7 solid-state soft start controller is easy to mount. It does
not require any special tools. To aid you with panel layout, refer to
the dimension drawings shown in Figure 1. Drill and tap holes per
mounting hole/slot locations as shown. To mount the unit, use all the
hardware specified in Table 1 of this leaflet. Tighten to the specified
torque.

DANGER—HIGH VOLTAGE
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE CAN CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK AND BURNS. TO
AVOID SHOCK HAZARD, DISCONNECT ALL POWER TO THE CONTROLLER,
MOTOR, OR OTHER CONTROL DEVICES BEFORE ANY WORK IS PERFORMED
ON THIS EQUIPMENT. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY, DEATH, OR SUBSTANTIAL PROPERTY DAMAGE.
DO NOT APPLY A DISCONNECT DEVICE ON THE OUTPUT OF THE DS7
SOFT START CONTROLLER UNLESS A MEANS TO TURN OFF THE DEVICE
WHEN DISCONNECT SWITCH IS OPEN IS UTILIZED. OPENING THE
DISCONNECT WHILE THE SOFT START CONTROLLER IS OPERATING MAY
CAUSE A MALFUNCTION. CLOSING THE DISCONNECT SWITCH WHILE THE
SOFT START CONTROLLER IS OPERATING WILL RESULT IN POTENTIAL
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE AND PERSONNEL HAZARD.
