including: E
• Flexible control of starting current and torque
• Smooth control of current and voltage without any steps or
transients
• Frequent start/stop operation without mechanical damage
• Flexibility to changes in the start conditions, increasing flexibility
in the application
• Soft stop control for extending the motor deceleration time
• Braking control to reduce motor deceleration time

The soft starter decreases the starting current by reducing, but
controlling the starting voltage. In doing so the available starting
torque available from the motor is also reduced. Typical starting torque
reductions are approximately the square of the current reduction
obtained from soft start control.

The Par. Set input determines which of the two MCD 3000 motor
parameter sets is operative. When a start is initiated the MCD 3000
checks the state of the Par. Set input. If there is an open circuit the
primary parameters (Par. 1 – 9) are operative. If there is a closed circuit
the secondary parameters (Par. 25 – 33) are operative.
