AC Motor Starter

User Instruction

Standard: IEC/EN 60947-2


IEC/EN 60947-4-1
Safety Warning
1 Only professional technicians are allowed for installation and
maintenance.
2 Installation in any damp, condensed-phase environment with
inflammable and explosive gas is forbidden.
3 When the product is being installed or maintained, the power
must be switched off.
4 You are prohibited from touching the conductive part when the
product is operating.
1 The Purpose of Use
NS2-80B AC motor starter is applicable to circuits with frequency of AC
50Hz or 60Hz, rated operating voltage up to 415V and current up to 80A. It
is used for infrequent start control of 3-phase squirrel cage asynchronous
motor and it can protect motor from short circuit, overload and loss of
phase. The product can also be used for distribution line protection and
infrequent load transfer or used as isolator.
NS2-80B AC motor starter can be added with a set of side mounted
auxiliary contacts: AU11(1NO+1NC) or AU20(2NO). See product catalog or
product itself for technical parameters of auxiliary contacts.

See Figure 3 for assembly procedure of starter and auxiliary contacts


when the starter is disconnected:
a) Confirm the starter is disconnected (the red OFF button is press
down);
b) Hang the front end of the auxiliary contacts on the slot at the left
front of the starter and move the auxiliary contacts towards the starter;
04
c) Before the extension bar at the center of the auxiliary contacts
touches the starter, use a screwdriver to push the central slot of the auxiliary
contacts so it stays at the top;
d) Push the auxiliary contacts towards the starter, press and hold the
blue button at the end of the auxiliary contacts and fit it into the starter;
e) After fitting the auxiliary contacts, break and make the starter for 5 –
10 times, check if the slot at the center of the auxiliary contacts can move
together with the starter reliably. In the meantime, check if the auxiliary
contacts are powered-on normally; if there is any abnormality, repeat step a)
– step d).

3.2 Wiring
Use single core PVC insulated copper conductor for wiring, see Table 3
for sectional area of the wire.

3.3 Adjustment and inspection


3.3.1 Check if the rated voltage of the starter Ue is consistent with the actual
control voltage of power.
3.3.2 Check if the rated operating current of the starter is within its setting
current range.
3.3.3 Check if the starter can operate smoothly: press down the green
button of the starter or turn the knob to ON position, flip the guide plate
beside the TEST mark on the cover according to the direction shown by the
arrow. You can hear the operation sound of the contact, and the green
button will bounce back or the knob will be turned to OFF position. Replace
the starter if there is any abnormality.
3.3.4 The operating current of the starter (setting current value of thermal
element) should be determined by the rated current of the motor. If the
setting current value between two scales is required, turn the cam slightly
accordingly. User can make adjustment during operation.

06
3.4 Coordination of protection
If the short-circuit current is not bigger than the rated ultimate short
circuit breaking capacity of the starter, the protection should be provided by
the starter; if the short circuit current is bigger than the rated ultimate
short-circuit breaking capacity of the starter, the protection should be
provided by the fuse or circuit breaker. See Table 4 for model and melt
current of the backup fuse of starter.

4 Maintenance
Clean the dust on the motor starter timely. Conduct product test and
maintenance every half a year to ensure the smooth operation of the
product and the good contact of NO and NC contacts. Tighten the terminal
screws with specified torque and align the load protection capability of the
motor starter according to commissioning requirements.
Be careful when handling and installing the starter. It is prohibited to
move the product by crane with strong impact so that the product will not
be damaged and its protection characteristics will not change.
