Freedom
Starters — Single-Phase Non-reversing, Full Voltage, Bi-Metallic Overload
Product Description
Single-phase, full voltage magnetic starters connect the
motor directly across the line, allowing it to draw full inrush
current during start-up. These starters are most commonly
used for control of self-starting single-phase motors up to
15 horsepower at 230V. They consist of a 2-pole electromag-
netic contactor to make and break the motor power circuit
and an overload relay to provide running overload protec-
tion. Starters listed in the table include:
■ Two-pole Freedom Series contactor with long life twin
break, silver cadmium oxide contacts. Generously sized
for low resistance and cool operation. Designed to 3 mil-
lion electrical operations at maximum hp and 30 million
mechanical operations to Size 0, 10 million operations to
Size 2 and 6 million operations to Size 3.
■ Three-pole Freedom Series overload with poles 2 and 3
wired in series for motor overload protection. This over-
load is ambient compensated, selectable Manual or Auto-
matic reset, interchangeable Class 10 or 20 heater packs,
1.0 or 1.15 service factor selectability, overload trip indica-
tion and electrically isolated NO-NC contacts (pull RESET
button to test).
■ Holding circuit NO auxiliary contact supplied as standard.
On Size 00, the contact occupies the 4th power pole position.
Sizes 0 – 3 have the NO auxiliary mounted on the right
side of the contactor.
■ Steel mounting plate as standard on all open type starters.
Wired for separate or common control.
