Product Description:
The 175G5237 is a soft starter from Danfoss in the MCD Soft Starters series and the MCD 202 family. It is intended for three phase induction motors and raises applied voltage gradually during startup. This controlled ramp reduces mechanical shock, limits inrush current, and helps protect conveyors, pumps, fans, and similar driven equipment.
The starter connects to mains supplies from 200-575 VAC and is sized for motors up to 45 kW. Under normal duty classification, it can deliver a continuous line current of 85 A, which supports full load operation without oversizing the starter for routine service. The control electronics draw only 100 mA during steady state, reducing demand on auxiliary control power within the panel.
For heavy duty demands, the unit is rated at 73 A, giving added clarity when starting loads with longer acceleration periods. An integrated short circuit withstand of 10 kA suits feeders protected by standard molded case breakers, and the IP20 enclosure provides finger safe protection inside a control cabinet. The SCR stack uses a 2-phase topology to reduce thermal losses, and the thermistor input can trip the unit before motor winding temperatures become damaging.
Control supply terminals accept 110/240 VAC or 440 VAC, which helps the starter fit panels with control voltages. That flexibility can reduce the need for separate converters and simplify panel design.
