the tri phase autotransformer

M.R. Severo developed the starting auto-transformer characteristics for electrial motors from 5 HP.

During the starting process of a induction motor, superior currents move in their coilings at the nominal
current of this motor. That can provoke strong problems of tension fall in the feeding net. In these cases
it´s recommendable that the motor starting be in a reduced tension, using for that reason a starting
autotransformer. It has normally taps of 65% and 80%, employed in motors which start carring light and
heavy cargoes, respectively.

The beginning of the operation is what appears in the picture 1, in others words, the starter current which circulate
in the net is reduced in the same relation of the square of the tap.

The censor of temperature

It´s a device being able to protect the autotransformer against over charge.

It has a contact which must be placed in series with the protection contact of the motor thermic relay.

The temperature of its coiling doesn´t reach 130º in a normal operation of the autotrasformer. In this case, the contact of the sensor of the temperature is closed. If there is a power charge, the temperature of the coiling exceeds 130º C, opening the contact of the sensor proviking the disjunction of the motor. When the temperature of the coiling come back to its operation nominal value, the contact of the sensor will close, permitting a new start of the motor.

Other specifications

According to consultation, we make autotransformers with taps in the tensions of 50%, 65% and 80%, with other tensions, duration of the work time, protected bobbins with sash, etc.

Characteristics:

• Assayed individually;
• Measurement of the way out tensions in the taps with applied nominal tension;
• Essay in unloaded for the determination of the consumed current and damages;
• Conexion using bicromatic screws.
