Motor Control

Motor starting and protection in an ideal space-saving and cost-saving solution for panelbuilders and OEMs.

The new XTPB MMPs up to 25A are ideally suited for small machines and applications operated by push-button or palm switches. Special MMP enclosures with IP40, IP55 or IP65 degrees of protection are available surface mount or installed and feature protection against direct contact, solid foreign bodies and dust, as well as the ingress of water. Whether equipped with protective membranes, locking devices or an emergency stop button, the XTPB will meet your application requirements.

XTPR MMPs offer a solution for applications from 0.1 to 63A in two small frame sizes. The 63A XTPR has a width of just 55mm, the smallest MMP in the industry! Enclosures with black or red/yellow covers are available for North American and IEC applications in IP41, IP55 or IP65 degrees of protection. XTPR enclosures are available for MMPs with front mount auxiliary contact modules including those with the early-make contact. Padlock attachments and a rotary handle mechanism kit make it easy to mount the XTPR in any enclosure.

The XT Electronic Manual Motor Protector provides the same functionality as the XT thermal manual motor protector, but with an added level of flexibility and selectability. The XTPE incorporates electronic control technology to enable more options and larger dial setting ranges. The trip units are interchangeable, allowing users to exchange as needed using the same base. The reduced number of part numbers decreases bill of material complexity while reducing inventory demands. The XTPE electronic manual motor protector includes the following features.

• 4:1 max to min overcurrent dial setting range
• Selectable trip class (5, 10, 15, 20)
• Interchangeable trip units
• Three base units (12, 32 and 65A)
• Common accessories with the XTPR

In addition to the selectability, the XTPE is also available with an advanced trip unit that can communicate system data and protector data thru SmartWire-DT. When on SmartWire-DT, the XTPE can communicate the following:

• Current Values
  • Maximum phase current
  • Overload warning
• Diagnostics Data
  • Overload fault
  • Cause of trip (overcurrent or short circuit)
  • Phase loss
  • Trip via TEST
• Status Messages
  • Control unit type
  • Overload setting
  • Time-lag
  • Switching status

The XTPE Electronic Manual Motor Protector provides the selectability, control, and insight options that give panel builders and OEMs the solutions necessary to enhance motor control designs while reducing total costs.
