Emotron Softstarters TSA/MSF

EMOTRON TSA
Emotron TSA softstarters take motor control to a new level. Soft torque starting, intelligent load monitoring and smart stops are all included and accompanied by a robust and compact design. The softstarter is developed for pump, fan, compressor, blower, crusher, conveyor, mill, mixer and saw applications.Smooth starts reduce your costs
Adjusting the motor torque is best done by controlling the current in all three phases. 3-phase control offers symmetrical and balanced currents without the drawbacks of additional energy losses, noise and vibration normally connected with 2-phase softstarters.Emotron TSA softstarters incorporate 3-phase control together with sophisticated algorithms for torque control. Conventional softstarters use a pre-defined voltage ramp to control the start.

With Emotron TSA, the actual motor torque is continuously calculated and controlled according to the application requirements. This torque control ensures an ultra-smooth start with constant acceleration. The torque control means the starting current is reduced even further by up to 30%. You can use smaller fuses and less expensive cables, and will thus benefit from lower installation and energy costs. The smooth starts also lead to less mechanical stress, improved process control and reduced maintenance costs.

Protect your process and maximize efficiency
A built-in load monitor protects your machine and process against costly downtime, equipment damage and break-down. It reacts immediately if a crusher is jammed, a pump is running dry, a compressor is idling, or a fan is operating inefficiently due to a blocked filter. This is achieved by continuously calculating the motor torque used. Any deviation from your selected load levels will result in a warning or a quick but smooth stop.The actual load can be remotely displayed via analogue or fieldbus communication output. The monitor can also be used to determine when a process is ready, for example, when the cored viscosity level is reached in a mixing process. You can rely on an efficient and reliable operation protected from damage and interruptions.

EMOTRON MSF
Emotron MSF 2.0 softstarter offers optimized start and stop sequences, advanced braking techniques and built-in monitor functionality. The softstarter is developed for pump, fan, compressor, blower, crusher, mill, mixer and saw applicationsSmooth starts reduce your costs
Efficient torque control ensures an ultra-smooth start with constant acceleration. Reduced start currents and mechanical stress means lower installation, energy and maintenance costs. Torque boost can be used to overcome initial torque peaks when starting, for example, a loaded crusher.

Protect your process and maximize efficiency
A built-in shaft power monitor protects your process from damage, downtime and inefficiency. It reacts immediately if a crusher is jammed, a pump is running dry or a fan filter is blocked. Any deviation from your selected load levels will result in a warning or a quick but smooth stop.

Smart stops – smooth or quick
Emotron MSF offers efficient solutions, whether the need is a smooth or a quick stop. A linear stop of a pump eliminates the risk of water hammer. No motor-controlled valves are needed. Built-in braking functionality ensures quick and safe stops of mills and saws without mechanical brakes.

Programmable inputs increase flexibility
Four programmable inputs offer great flexibility. The rotating direction of a fan can be controlled by programming two inputs for start left/right. No external PLC is required. You can connect an external alarm signal to stop the motor if a problem occurs. An analogue sensor can be connected directly to the Emotron MSF to control the start and stop levels of a pump.

Quick and cost-efficient installation
Installing an Emotron MSF is quick and cost-efficient. There is no need for the additional equipment often required – DC brakes, motor protection relays, mains failure relays, load monitors, meters, displays or switches. Everything you need is included in the Emotron MSF unit.
