General Information

Description

The ArmorStart Power Media offers both three-phase and control power cable systems of cordsets, patchcords, receptacles, tees, reducers, and accessories to be used with the ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller. These cable system components allow quick connection of ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers, thereby reducing installation time. They allow repeatable, reliable connection of the three-phase and control power to the ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller and motor by providing a plug-and-play environment that also avoids system miswiring.

Compared to the traditional conduit installations, with the ArmorStart Power Media you profit and benefit from:

Reduce commissioning time

Plug-and-play design eliminates wiring errors

Increased system design flexibility

No special tools required

Reduced labor costs

Three-Phase Power Media

The three-phase power media offers both mini- and quick-change disconnect cables that provide a secure connection to the ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller. Connectors can be straight or right angled and are physically keyed to prevent wiring mishaps. The cabling options include:

Cordsets: Cable with integral male or female connector at one end and flying leads at the other

Patchcords: Cable with integral connector at each end (one male, one female)

Available in 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, or 14 m lengths.

The three-phase tees and reducer offer flexibility in system design. The 4-pin T-port connects a single drop line to the trunk.

The receptacles provide a termination point at the panel and motor junction box. The female receptacles can be used for a panel mount connection. The male receptacles can be used for a quick disconnect at the motor junction box.

The three-phase power media components are rated for motor branch circuits per UL 2237.

Control Power Media

The control power media offers a mini disconnect cables that provide a secure connection to the ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller. The control power media components are a 6-pin/5-used configuration to prevent mis-wiring with network connectors. Connectors can be straight or right angled and are physically keyed to prevent wiring mishaps. The cabling options include:

Cordsets: Cable with integral male or female connector at one end and flying leads at the other

Available in 2, 5, or 10 m lengths.

Patchcords: Cable with integral connector at each end (one male, one female)

Available in 1, 2, 3, 5, or 10 m lengths.

The control power tees offer flexibility in system design. The 6-pin/5-used T-port connects a single drop line to the trunk. Two types of tees are offered. The E-stop In tee is used to connect to the Bulletin 800F On-Machine E-Stop station using a control power media patchcord. The E-stop Out tee is used with a cordset or patchcord to connect to the ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller.

The receptacles provide a termination point at the panel and ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller. The female receptacles can be used for a panel mount connection. The male receptacles can be used for a quick disconnect at the ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller with gland plate design.
