Mode of Operation
This motor controller is intended
to be used to softstart/ stop 3-
phase squirrel cage induction
motors and thereby reduce the
stress or wear on gear and
belt/chain drives and to give
smooth operation of machines.
Soft starting and or stopping is
achieved by controlling the
motor voltage. During running
operation the semiconductor is
bypassed by an internal electro-
mechanical relay.
The initial torque can be adjust-
ed from 5 to 50% of the nominal
torque.
The soft-start time can be ad-
justed from 0.5 to 10 s and 0.5
to 20 s for the soft-stop respec-
tively.
A green LED indicates supply.
The yellow LED is flashing dur-
ing the ramping up or down.
After the ramping when the
semiconductors are bypassed
the and LED lights constantly.
The red LED is flashing when
the sequency is different from
L1-L2-L3. If the softstarter is
overheated the red LED is turned
on constantly.
Alarm handling:
Over temperature: The RSE will
not start if the heatsink has an
temperature which is exceeding
approx 100°C. When over tem-
perature occurs while the soft-
starter is not ramping (1) or while
the bypass Relays are activated
(2) the following will happen:
1) The softstarter will not ramp
up and alarm relay is deacti-
vated (contact open) - Reset
takes place when the temper-
ature drops below the critical
level and only if the supply is
interrupted and reapplied.
2) The alarm relay will deactivate
(open) to indicate fault and
when the softstarter is not
ramping the softstarter will
react as described in 1).
Sequence: By wrong sequence
at connection of the power the
RSE will start normally but the
alarm relay will not activate.
(Contacts open).

Applications
Changing from Direct ON
Line start to soft start
(Line controlled soft-start)
(Fig.
1)
Changing a Direct On Line start
into a soft start is very simple
with the RSE soft-starting re-
lay:
1) Cut the cable to the motor
and insert the RSE relay.
2) Connect control input to two
of the incoming lines. Set
initial torque to minimum and
ramp up and down to maxi-
mum.
Fig. 1
3) Power up again - adjust the
start torque so the motor
starts turning immediately
after power is applied, and
adjust ramp time to the
appropriate value.
When C1 is operated, the
motor controller will perform
soft-start of the motor. When
C1 is switched off, the motor
will stop, the motor controller
will reset and after 0.5 s a new
soft-start can be performed.
Please note that the controller
does not insulate the motor
from the mains. Contactor C1
is therefore needed as a ser-
vice switch for the motor.

Fusing Considerations
The motor controller provides
by-passing of the semicon-
ductors during running opera-
tion. Therefore the semicon-
ductors can only be damaged
by short-circuit currents dur-
ing ramp-up and ramp-down
function.
A 3-phase induction motor
with correctly installed and
adjusted overload protection
does not short totally between
lines or directly to earth as
some other types of loads, eg
heater bands. In a failing mo-
tor there will always be some
part of a winding to limit the
fault current. If the motor is
installed in an environment
where the supply to the motor
cannot be damaged, the short
circuit protection can be con-
sidered to be acceptable if the
controller is protected by a 3-
pole thermal-magnetic over-
load relay.

Soft-start and soft-stop
(Fig. 2)
When S1 is closed, soft-start
of the motor will be performed
according to the setting of the
ramp-up potentiometer and
the setting of the initial torque
potentiometer. When S1 is
opened, soft-stop will be per-
formed according to the set-
ting of the ramp-down
potentiometer.

To prevent the semiconduc-
tors from overheating, a cer-
tain time between ramping
should be allowed. The time
between rampings depends
on the motor current during
ramping and ramp time (see
table).
Note:
Table is valid for ambient
temperature 25°C. For higher
ambient temperature add
5%/°C to values in the table.
The shaded areas in the table
are for blocked rotor. Do not
repeat rampings with blocked
rotor.
