GE CR306C003 - NEMA Size 1 Three Phase 240V Max 10HP Magnetic Starter

Product Description

GE CR306C003 - NEMA Size 1 Three Phase 240V Max 10HP Magnetic Starter

GE's full voltage (600-Volt maximum) magnetic motor starter has an encapsulated coil and a 3-leg overload relay to protect against overloads in all phases.  It is on standard specifications of major manufacturers.  The line offers features and benefits most asked for by users.

• NEMA Size 1   
• Three Phase   
• 230 - 240V   
• Max 10 Horsepower   
• Toolless contactor disassembly (Sizes 00-4) - allows quick access for inspection and maintenance.  Just release two retainers and pull a clip to get at magnet, coil, and contacts.   
• Saddle clamp terminals (Sizes 00-1) - accommodate ring, spade, and stripped wire leads and carry permanent stamped-in identification.  Staggered arrangement makes wiring easier and helps prevent shorting between phases.   
• Current-carrying components - contact tips are weld-resistant silver cadmium oxide (fine silver on sizes 00 and 0 only).  Contacts are installed in a wedge configuration for positive make with minimum bounce.   
• Optional PF capacitor terminals - permit easy connection of power factor correction capacitors between contactor and overload relay for energy conservation.   
• Class 20 overload protection   
• Visual trip indicator with manual reset - to avoid surprise restarts.  Reset occurs on arm upstroke so a tripped condition can't be overridden by holding the arm down.   
• Manual weld check - provides a convenient test against welding of overload relay contacts.  Just depress the weld check operator to trip the relay, run a simple continuity test across the relay contacts, then depress the manual reset to return the starter to service.   
• Optional Isolated NO contact on the overload relay - provides means of direct interface with programming controller or computer to monitor performance and diagnose faults.    Dual bimetals - anticipate overloads, responding to rising current and temperature with faster tripping on severe overloads for better motor protection.  Trip points are factory-calibrated for accuracy.   
• ±10% trip adjustment - by turning a dial in the overload relay face allows "tuning" the protection to the motor on the spot.   
• Largest selection of modifications and accessory kits - includes auxiliary contacts, coils, fifth-pole additions, vertical and horizontal mechanical interlocks, surge suppressors, control circuit fusing, NEMA Type enclosures, push buttons, selector switches, indicating lights, control transformers, space heaters, and more.
