Looking to buy some Large soft starters for our industrial plant, we are interested in sticking with Rockwell products. In the past, we have used the SMC Flex 150 and it seems to be an option, but I see there are additional features available such as the anaconda cable and 20 comm cards for communication. This will be for a 375 amp application running at 480 volts. Are there any other series from Rockwell that we should consider for this project?
When deciding between SMC flex and SMC 50 for our needs, which one is the better choice? Both offer bypass options in the required size, but SMC 50 appears to be the newer option. Are there any other factors to consider when making our decision?
I recently sought out a soft starter for my project and found that the 150-SMC model is still available as an active product. This range includes options from 3 HP (150-F5NBR) to 400 HP (150-F480NBR).
I have noticed that although the smc 50 has been around for quite a while, it is still an active option. Can anyone provide insight on whether the smc 50 is a superior choice in this situation?
It's concerning that even after multiple visits to this site, your manners haven't improved. Is this behavior a product of living in Texas or simply a negative attitude? Greetings from Australia! Basic courtesies like saying "hi," "please," and "thank you" seem to be a challenge for you. It's surprising that after 14 years, you still haven't made these simple changes.
Many people are opting to replace soft starts with drives due to lower prices nowadays. If you don't need to adjust the speed, you can easily set a fixed speed and acceleration ramp to suit your requirements.
Absolutely, Rockwell has a vast range of industrial automation products to choose from. For your specific needs, I'd also suggest you take a look at the PowerFlex series; they are quite robust and offer advanced motor control. They also come with additional features such as different communication modules and enhanced safety options. Furthermore, keep in mind that the selection would also depend on your operational requirements like the level of control precision, your budget and, perhaps, energy efficiency. Remember, it's not just about meeting power requirements, but also about optimizing operations in the long run.
