Product Description:

The Danfoss 175G4008 soft start controller is designed to offer regulated acceleration and deceleration for motors. The controller is designed for three-phase applications and reduces inrush currents, which can stress electrical systems. It ensures reliable operation in automation systems that require gradual motor start and stop actions. Danfoss designed the controller for use in industrial automation processes.

The 175G4008 soft start controller works with a rated voltage of 400 to 480 V. The soft start controller operates at a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz. The maximum current rating is 25 amps AC and 53 amps. The control voltage range is 24-300 V AC or DC. A kick-start feature gives extra starting force when needed. The input connections are made at terminals 1/L1, 3/L2, and 5/L3. The insulation voltage is 660 volts, while the impulse withstand voltage is 4 kV. The controller contains ramp-up and ramp-down functionalities that may be adjusted to meet varying load requirements. The initial torque setting provides for controlled torque delivery upon motor startup. The motor output connections are available at terminals T1, T2, and T3. A1 and A2 offer auxiliary or control terminals. The mounting method is spring-loaded for rapid installation. A visible heatsink is built for thermal control, ensuring consistent functioning.

The 175G4008 soft start controller comes with a strong insulating design. The insulation voltage of 660 volts provides safe operation in high-voltage systems. The impulse withstand voltage prevents electrical surges. These features ensure that the controller functions properly when installed in electrical panels. The soft start controller is designed for direct motor control, which necessitates consistent soft starting and stopping capability. The soft start controller is designed to meet technical specifications in professional applications.

Frequently Asked Questions about 175G4008:

Q: Why does the Danfoss 175G4008 support 25A AC current?

A: The controller supports 25A AC current that ensures compatibility with small to medium-sized motors. It allows controlled acceleration while minimizing electrical stress during motor start operations.

Q: How does the 175G4008 benefit from a 53A rating?

A: The 53A rating provides operational flexibility for varying motor demands. It ensures the unit can handle higher starting requirements without compromising performance or reliability during motor startup.

Q: Why does Danfoss 175G4008 include adjustable ramp-up functions?

A: Adjustable ramp-up functions allow precise acceleration control. They reduce inrush currents that prevent system overloads and enable motors to start gradually without excessive stress on mechanical parts.

Q: How does the 175G4008 use kick start effectively?

A: Kick start delivers an extra torque pulse during motor startup. It is useful for applications with heavy loads that require an immediate boost to overcome inertia.

Q: Why does the Danfoss 175G4008 provide 660V insulation voltage?

A: The 660V insulation voltage ensures electrical safety. It prevents internal breakdown of insulation that allows the product to operate reliably in high-voltage electrical systems.
