The document discusses motor starting methods and their associated starting currents. It describes direct-on-line starting as having the highest starting current at 6 times normal current. Star-delta starting has a starting current of 3 times normal. Soft starters have a starting current of 2 times normal. The document also discusses star and delta motor connections, overload protection for motors, and provides examples of motor control circuits.
2. Motor starting
Starting current depend on motor connection
Why happen motor starting
In starting motor need more current to run because it need more torque .
Torque is directly proportional with current
In running case motor need only save motor rated speed but in starting motor
need to increase speed .
3. Motor starting
Motor starting types
Direct on line (DOL)………..I_starting=6*I_normal
Start –Delta connection …. I_starting=3*I_normal
Soft starter……………………I_starting=2*I_normal
With A group of resistance ……its depend on resistance value.
DOL method:motor is directly connected to the supply I_starting=6*I_normal
6. Star connection
In star connection motor work with the highest volt and the lowest current in
nameplate
7. Notes
Volt star=volt delta *sqrt(3)
Current star=current delta/sqrt(3)
Must me connect star or delta connection right to avoid burn motor
If not found voltage supply as in name plate use transformer to convert supply
voltage to voltage on name plate.
If we must connect motor as star connection and connect as a delta connection
motor will be burn.
If we must connect motor as delta connection and connect as a star connection
with the same delta volt motor will be run with half power.
8. Star Delta connection
In starting connect motor firstly as a Star then convert to delta after reaching to
rated speed .
KM1 is the main contactor
KM2 is the star contactor
KM3 is the Delta contactor
9. Exercises
Design a control circuit to run motor star then turn into delta without timer just by
pressing start button and operator press another switch to turn into Delta
10. Exercises
Design a control circuit to run motor star then turn into delta without timer just by
pressing start button and operator press another switch to turn into Delta with
indication lamps
11. Exercises
Design a control circuit to run motor star then turn into delta with timer
12. Exercises
Design a control circuit to run motor star then turn into delta with timer
19. Starting current problem for overload
Use contactor in parallel with overload to avoid problem and use timer after this
time return to main contactor
21. Project
Start button run two conveyors
When product reach to s1 do the following
Piston (1A) : Forward until reach to 1S2
Piston (2A) : Forward until reach to 2S2
Piston (2A) : Reverse until reach to 2S1
Piston (1A) : Reverse until reach to 1S1
Wo conveyor work until new object reach to S1 and do the sequence.
23. specification
Four tanks are discharged manual and filled with four pumps.
Pumps specification p1=3kw p2=4kw p3=7kw p4=5kw
Select component with rated current
Main power max feed=10kw
Design a control circuit to cover this problem
You have four switches to indicate high tank level.
