The 150-C30NBD is a robust soft starter from the Allen-Bradley Smart Motor Controllers (SMC) line, specifically engineered to minimize motor startup and stopping stress. Its advanced protective modes work efficiently to save energy, particularly in applications where multiple motors are in use, by controlling inrush currents and reducing voltage spikes. With high efficiency that surpasses variable frequency drives (VFDs) at full speed, this device is ideal for applications requiring low to medium torque during startup. It features an integral bypass contactor and supports diverse wiring configurations, including Two-wire, Three-wire, Isolation contactor, and Reversing setups, with optional accessories like auxiliary contact blocks and remote reset solenoids to enhance protection and simplify wiring. Designed for a 3-Phase supply, the 150-C30NBD caters to power monitoring and control scenarios with precision and reliability.
