DANGER!
Power factor correction capacitors must never be installed at the output of the
Soft-Starter SSW-08. (U / 2T1, V / 4T2 and W / 6T3).
ATTENTION!
To ensure that the protections based on the current reading and display operate
correctly, for example the overload, the motor nominal current must not be lower than
50 % of the nominal Soft-Starter SSW-08 current.
NOTE!
Use the wire sizes and fuses recommended in tables 3.5, 3.6 and 3.7. The connector
tightening torque is indicated in table 3.4. Use only copper wires.
NOTE!
The Soft-Starter SSW-08 is provided with electronic protection against motor overload.
This protection must be set according to the specific motor. When several motors
are connected to the same Soft-Starter SSW-08 use individual overload relays for
each motor.
