3.1 Introduction
The RVS-DN is a highly sophisticate
d and reliable soft starter designed for use with standard three-phase,
three-wire and six-wire, squirrel cage induction motors. It provides the best method of reducing current and
torque during motor starting.
The RVS-DN starts the motor by supplying a slowly increasing voltage to the motor. This provides soft start
and smooth, stepless acceleration while drawing the minimum current necessary to start the motor.
The third generation, microprocessor based digital control provides unique features like pump control, slow
speed, electronic reversing and accurate motor protection. RVS-DN models can be supplied with options for
insulation protection, thermistor input & analog output, etc.
The optional RS 485 Communication with Modbus protocol or the optional Profibus protocol enables full
control (START, STOP, DUAL ADJUST, Command, etc.) and supervision.
