SLIMLINE MOTOR
CONTROLLERS
CREATE SPACE IN
ENCLOSURES
S
mall drives for machines
and equipment are
typically powered up to
9.0 A, and are protected by
conventional motor circuit
breakers.
However, when space in the enclosure
is limited, it is very difficult to find room
for significant numbers of protective
components.
Rittal’s new motor controllers for its RiLine
Compact power distribution system offers
a sophisticated solution.
To assist the engineer Rittal has also
produced a 3D configurator that reduces
the time required to generate Compact
RiLine busbar systems.
Following the successful launch of the
busbar system “RiLine Compact” at
the beginning of the year, Rittal is now
expanding the product range.
Until now, the small 125-A-max busbar
system consisted entirely of shock-
hazard-protected boards, which form the
basis of the system, along with assembly
components such as connection adapters
for busbar infeed and component
adapters for the easy set-up of switchgear
and protection devices produced by other
manufacturers.
Rittal will shortly be launching new motor
controllers into the range.
These can be fitted directly and easily
onto the board in a one-step installation,
to minimise the time and effort spent on
wiring.
A compact solution for small spaces
Rittal offers motor controllers in three
staggered current ranges: 8 A/2.4 A/8 A.
These combine the functions of direct
starter and reversing starter within one
single device.
