Starter Contactor Accessories
Starter contactor accessories boost the functionality and service life of starter contactor products. They're designed to meet the particular demands of motor control applications, which make them suitable for a wide range of industrial situations. One thing these starter accessories do is allow auxiliary contacts to be fitted—something that gives remote indication and monitoring not just of the starter contactor's operation but also of an attached load (i.e., a motor).
Starter contactors have two types of accessories: auxiliary contacts and overload relays. The purpose of these accessories is not the same. The first one, the auxiliary contact, provides additional output for other devices connected to it. So when the main contact accomplishes its task of connecting and disconnecting a circuit, the aux contact does exactly the same thing. They work in tandem with each other to sequence multiple devices that need to be turned on and off in a specific order because they might share common wires or otherwise interact with each other in some way.
Starter contactor surge suppressors, also known as starters and motor control systems (MCSs), provide protection for a wide range of electrical equipment from voltage surges and transient overvoltages. This is critical because these types of events can easily occur due to the operation of motors—a fact that highlights the importance of using high-quality surge protectors.
