The controller
An A200, A210, or A250 motor controller, when
wired as shown in the appropriate connection
diagram, will operate as a full-voltage starter and
will give protection against overload. However,
it will not protect against short-circuit currents
when wired and provided with overload relay
(OLR) heaters as listed in heater selection tables
or when used with any means of inherent
protection activated by motor temperature.
This industrial type-controller is designed to be
installed, operated, and maintained by adequately
trained workmen. These instructions do not cover
all details, variations, or combinations of the equip-
ment, its storage, delivery, installation, checkout,
safe operation, or maintenance. Care must be
exercised to comply with local, state, and national
regulations, as well as safety practices, for this
class of equipment.
This motor controller is suitable for use on a circuit
capable of delivering not more than the current
(rms symmetrical amperes) shown in Table 1 in
circuits rated not more than the voltage shown.
