One way is to use the auxiliary contacts on the motor contactor to close a separate source supply to drive an auxiliary relay.

Iwant to know how to wire control circuit ao star delter star?

To wire a star-delta control circuit, you typically need a contactor for the star configuration (Y), a contactor for the delta configuration (Δ), and a timer or relay to switch between them. The motor is connected to the star contactor initially, and once the motor reaches a certain speed, the timer activates the delta contactor, disconnecting the star contactor. Ensure to include overload protection and proper control buttons for starting and stopping the motor. Always follow electrical safety standards and consult wiring diagrams specific to your motor and control system.


How relay is used to control induction motor?

If you want to control induction motor using a control relay give neutral directly to the one point of coil of relay & one point of coil of contactor then give control supply through push button to second point of coil of relay. use one NO point of relay and give supply to coil of contactor. and also use one NO of contactor for holding the contactor & take OFF (NC) in the starting to stop motor after complition of work. It is jut like an Direct On-line starter.


How do you install a hard start kit on an air conditioner?

Common wire of the potential relay goes to the compressor contactor. (5) Start wire of the potential relay goes to compressor run capacitor. (2) Run wire of the potential relay goes to the start capacitor. (1)


How do electrical contactors work?

A contactor is an electrically controlled switch (relay) used for switching a power circuit. an electro pneumatic contactor is similar to the above except it uses a pneumatic signal to initiate the switching of the electric power circuit. an electro magnetic contactor is a contactor driven by an electric control signal. It us usually just called a contactor.


Dol starter wiring diagram?

A DOL (Direct-On-Line) starter wiring diagram typically includes a motor, a contactor, an overload relay, and a power supply. The power supply connects to the contactor's input terminals, and when activated, the contactor closes its contacts to provide power directly to the motor. The overload relay is wired in series with the motor to protect it from overheating by disconnecting the circuit if the current exceeds a preset limit. Additionally, control buttons (start and stop) are included to manage the operation of the motor.


What is the different between contactor and relay?

A contactor, as far as being used to start a motor or the like, is in essence, a relay. A coil is energized and the normally open contacts from the contactor close (normally 3 contacts for an AC motor) and the motor starts. Do I understand your question? Or are you trying to decifer the difference between the coil of a relay and the contacts of a relay?


What is the function of phase sensing relay?

A phase sensing relay monitors all three incoming phase legs at once. With the relay the operator has the ability to set the trip points in a percentage of incoming line voltage. If the voltage in any of the monitored legs falls below the operators set point the relay will trip and take the monitored device off line. If it is a motor being protected, the auxiliary contacts on the phase sensing relay will change state and its N.C. contact will open. The motor's contactor coil is in series with this auxiliary contact so with the stoppage of current flow to the magnetic contactor's holding coil, the contactor opens cutting off the supply to the motor.


What components can be changed on a contactor and a starter for rebuilding purposes?

Various components can be added and removed from a contactor. Auxiliary contacts can be inserted in front of the main contacts, as well as a time relay in the case of motor starters (star/delta starter). Usually you should fit a overload relay when you use the contactor in a motor starter, this is inserted in the main contacts at the bottom. However, the internal components like the coil may never be changed or replaced.


Can you use normal relay to start a single phase motor pump?

It depends on what your definition of a normal relay is. If it is a small plug in relay to control the motor's contactor then there is no point. All pump motors need control to start and stop the pump. Whether it is done from a pressure switch or a float system it doesn't matter they both should control the motor's contactor and not the pump directly. Most small relays do not have the amp capacity in their contacts to handle inductive loads. Using a motor contactor also has the benefit to protect the motor with overload protection. Using the overload contacts in series with the control device allows the pump to go off line should an overload occur.


Why use link in star contactor?

The link in the star contactor is used to form the star point of three of the motor leads. On most star wound motors the star point is inside the motor windings. On a motor that can be used for star delta starting it is a six wire motor. The star point winding depends on the contactor to tie the coil ends together externally in the control panel of the star delta starter.
