Overview

CSX & CSXi 5 hp to 150 hp

208-480 Volts

Compact Digital Solid State Soft Start Controller

 

The smallest and easiest to use CSX/CSXi series sets up with simple pot adjustments. It has one of the smallest foot prints available and includes a built-in bypass contactor, which allows smaller, non-ventilated enclosures, making it ideal for MCC applications.

Control Techniques offers a complete range of low voltage AC motor soft starters such as our pre-engineered crusher duty IMS2-4-1 & EMX3-4-1 soft starter packages suitable for both normal and heavy duty applications, plus packaged models such as our “Crusher-Duty” soft starters. Most of our soft starters feature a universal voltage input which can accommodate 200-600 VAC 3 phase input supply" or "Our soft starters feature a universal voltage input which can accommodate 200-600VAC, 200-400VAC and 380-690VAC 3-phase input supply. Modbus, Profibus, DeviceNet and RS485 options are available.

Applications

CSXi is ideal for a wide range of applications, including:

  • Conveyors
  • Fans
  • Pumps (Centrifugal & Submersible)

Pump Application Interface

The Pump Application Interface expands the soft starter's input and output functionality and is ideal for applications where greater control and feedback are required. The interface provides three digital inputs and one PT100 sensing input, which can monitor system conditions and trip the soft starter is an unwanted condition occurs.

 

CSX - Compact Digital Solid State Soft Start Controller

The CSX is an open loop TVR (Timed Voltage Ramp) controller that reduces the electrical and mechanical strain on the motor and the load, providing soft starts and soft stops for squirrel-cage AC induction motors. The CSX is designed to be used with an external motor protection device and is ideal for the applications that have an existing full voltage starter or external motor overload. Fieldbus communication modules can be easily snapped on to the side of the CSX module for Modbus, Profibus and DeviceNet protocols.

CSXi - Compact Digital Soft Starter with Motor Protection

CSXi includes all the functionality of the CSX, with the addition of motor protection and current limit/current ramp starting modes. The CSXi is a closed loop controller (constant current or current ramp) that reduces the electrical and mechanical strain on the motor and the load, providing soft starts and soft stops for squirrel-cage AC induction motors. CSXi is ideal for high inertia loads, or loads where the starting load torque requirements do not change. Modbus, Profibus and DeviceNet fieldbus communication modules can be easily snapped on to the side of the CSXi module.
