all over the world, causing problems in several ways:
•
Electrical problems due to voltage and current transients
arising from Direct-On-Line or Star-Delta starts. The
transients may overload the local supply network and
cause unacceptable voltage variations that interfere with
other electrical equipment connected to the network.
•
Mechanical problems that address the entire drive chain,
from motor to driven equipment, causing a big need for
service and repair work.
•
Operational problems, such as damage to products on
conveyor belts.
•
Water hammering and pressure surges in pipe systems
when starting and stopping pumps.
The financial consequences of the problems above are
considerable. Every technical problem and every breakdown
costs money in repairs and lost production.
By choosing ABB’s softstarter, all of these problems could
be avoided. Whether the choice is the PSR, PSS, PSE or the
PST(B), ABB’s softstarters all allow smooth start and stops
while keeping mechanical and electrical stresses to a minimum.
ABB offers four different ranges of softstarters to cover
every customer need for solutions with motor sizes up to
1800 A. This page describes the main characteristics of the
different softstarter ranges.
PSR — The compact range
The PSR softstarter is the most compact of all the softstarter
ranges. A compact softstarter also allows for the design of
compact starting equipment. A PSR together with a MMS
(manual motor starter) makes up a far more compact starting
solution than a Star-Delta starter, for instance.
By including a built-in by-pass the energy losses inside the
softstarter are reduced. And with only three potentiometers,
the setup of the PSR could not be easier. Still, the optimized
ramping characteristics will ensure a very smooth start and
stop for all applications.
PSS — The flexible range
The PSS is the most flexible of the four softstarter ranges from
ABB. It allows both in-line and inside delta connections. As
with the PSR, few settings are needed to get it up and running.
Connecting an external current transformer makes it possible
to activate the current limit function which will allow you to
keep the current at a pre-set level also when starting heavy-
duty applications. The PSS softstarter is the ideal solution
when looking for a robust solid state starting solution where
handling many starts per hour is required.
PSE — The efficient range
The PSE softstarter is the world’s first compact softstarter
with both built-in electronic overload for motor protection
and torque control for excellent control of pumps. A compact
design, packed with functionality, makes the PSE a very
efficient starting solution.
An illuminated, language neutral display and a four button
keypad makes it easy to take advantage of all the advanced
features of the PSE softstarter. The display provides all the
necessary information both during ramping and continuous
operation.
PSR18 - 600 - 70
Control supply voltage: 70 = 100-250 V AC
11 = 24 V AC/DC
Operational voltage: 600 V
Current rating: 18 A
Softstarter range
PST(B) — The advanced range
The PST(B) softstarter is the most advanced softstarter in
the range with almost all imaginable functionality included.
Advanced protection of the motor, softstarter and load ensures
a trouble-free operation. Problems are detected before the
motor needs to be stopped thanks to a pre-warning system
that minimizes downtime.
The torque control of the PST(B) was developed in cooperation
with well-known pump manufacturers to ensure the best
possible stop of pumps, without the risk of water hammering
and pressure surges.
With the full-text LCD display in your own language, pre-
programmed application settings and event logging, setup and
operation could not be easier.
By using the ABB‘s FieldBusPlug, you can decide at any time
which bus protocol to use. The fieldbus system will allow you
to setup, control and monitor the softstarter.
From the moment the first electric motor was developed,
engineers have tried to come up with ways of avoiding
the electrical and mechanical problems that usually occur
when starting a motor. High inrush currents, current spikes
and excessive mechanical wear are some of the problems
that need to be avoided. One way is to use a Star-Delta
starter. This method is for many applications an insufficient
solution since it handles neither problems with current
spikes or torque peaks nor provides a way to perform a
soft stop. A softstarter on the other hand, will provide far
better performance during the start and allows for soft
stops of the motor.
ABB has been producing softstarters since the beginning of
the 1980’s. Over 30 years’ experience has been incorporated
into the design of today’s product ranges. Modern power
electronics matched with smart circuitry and software gives
users of ABB‘s softstarters, with several state-of-the-art design
features, superior control of current and voltage levels during
motor start and stop.
The solution to both mechanical and electrical problems
AC motors, “the workhorses of the industry”, are used to
drive fans, crushers, agitators, pumps, conveyors and more.
Depending on the motor installation, torque and current peaks
occur. These peaks are everyday reality for production plants

PSR – The compact range
Description
The PSR range is the most compact of all ABB’s softstarter
ranges. The compact PSR range makes it possible to fit many
devices into the same enclosure. A PSR together with a MMS
(manual motor starter) makes up a far more compact starting
solution than a Star-Delta starter, for instance.
Flexible mounting
PSR softstarters from 3 to 45 A are possible to mount on a
DIN-rail, ensuring quick and easy mounting. Naturally, all sizes
can be screw mounted.
Few settings
The setup of the PSR is easily done and confirmed using the
three clearly marked potentiometers on the front.
Built-in by-pass for energy saving
The built-in by-pass on all sizes does not only save energy;
it will also ensure the most compact ABB’s softstarter design
and reduce the installation time. Thanks to the reduced heat
generation, the softstarter can be mounted inside high IP class
enclosures.
Suitable for stopping pumps
Even without using torque control, the PSR range is designed
to reduce water hammering. Compared to the direct stops of a
Star-Delta starter or a DOL starter the PSR is superior. See the
stop ramp with step-down voltage below.
System concept with manual motor starters
All PSR softstarter sizes can easily be connected to the
corresponding manual motor starters from ABB by using
the special designed connection kits. This makes both the
mounting and the connection easier and will provide a very
compact starting solution containing short circuit and thermal
protection, isolation function and soft starter - everything that
you need.
