UL 489
MS-Series
with overload and short circuit protection,
phase failure sensitivity according to
IEC 947-4-1, DIN VDE 0660 Part 102
Three Phase
Adjustable Trip Economy
Manual Motor Controllers
With its high breaking capacity and current limitation the MS Manual
Motor Controllers provide optimum protection for electrical motors as
well as for other consumer units up to 25 amps. They are equipped
with phase failure sensitivity, isolating and main switch functions. 13
ranges cover nominal rated currents from 0.1 up to 25 amps.
The MS’s are temperature compensated; the trip current of the
magnetic part is 12 x ln. The Manual Motor Controllers are built in
accordance with IEC 947.
