  • Introduction Types of Motor Starters
    Introduction Motor starters are one of the major inventions for motor control applications. As the name suggests, a starter is an electrical device which controls the electrical power for starting a motor. These electrical devices are also used for the purpose of stopping, reversing and protecting electric motors. The following are the two major components of a starter: 1. Contactor: The main function of the contactor is to control the electric current to the motor. A contactor can make or break power to the circuit. 2. Overload Relay: Overheating and drawing too much current can cause the motor to burn out and become practically useless. Overload relays prevent this from happening and protect the motor from any potential danger. A starter is an assembly of these two components, which allows it to turn on or off an electric motor or motor controlled electrical equipment. The starter also provides the necessary overload protection to the circuit. Types of Motor Starters There are several types of motor starters. However, the two most basic types of these electrical devices are: 1. Manual Starters Manual starters are devices that are operated manually. These starters are extremely easy and straightforward to operate and do not require expert intervention. The starter includes a button (or rotary knob) which enables a user to turn the connected equipment on or off. The buttons feature mechanical linkages, which make the contacts open or close, starting or stopping the motor. The following features of a manual starter make it a preferred choice over other types: • These starters deliver a safe, as well as economical operation.
