Frequently Asked Questions about 150-C60NBD
Question: What is the purpose of the 150-C60NBD controller?
Date Update:23/06/2025
Answer:

The 150-C60NBD is a Smart Motor Controller designed to manage soft starting and stopping of motors in industrial systems. It allows motors to ramp up smoothly, reducing inrush currents and mechanical stress. Its built-in features also include overload protection, selectable start times, and current limits, making it ideal for controlling AC motors in demanding applications.

Question: What types of motors is this controller compatible with?
Date Update:23/06/2025
Answer:

The 150-C60NBD can manage both line-connected and delta-connected motors:

  • Line-Connected Motors: Up to 60A, 7.5–20 HP at 230V AC
  • Delta-Connected Motors: Up to 104A, 7.5–30 kW at 460V AC

This makes it highly adaptable for various motor configurations and power ratings.

Question: What is the difference between SMC Flex and SMC-3?
Date Update:23/06/2025
Answer:
  • 1. Control Features:
    SMC Flex offers advanced control modes including soft start, soft stop, current limit start, and pump control. SMC-3 provides basic soft start and soft stop with current limiting.
  • 2. Monitoring Capabilities:
    SMC Flex has built-in diagnostics, fault logging, and a digital display, enabling more advanced monitoring. SMC-3 does not include a display and has limited diagnostic capabilities.
  • 3. Current Ratings and Voltage Range:
    SMC Flex supports a broader current range (up to 1250 A) and voltages (up to 690V AC). SMC-3 typically supports up to 480V and 85 A, making it suitable for smaller motors.
  • 4. Communication Support:
    SMC Flex supports communication options such as DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, and PROFIBUS. SMC-3 is not communication-enabled.
  • 5. Expandability and Configuration:
    SMC Flex can be configured for advanced applications including inside-delta motor connections. SMC-3 is simpler and intended for basic start/stop tasks.
Question: How does soft start and soft stop work in this controller?
Date Update:23/06/2025
Answer:

The controller gradually increases voltage during startup, allowing the motor to accelerate smoothly. During shutdown, it decreases voltage slowly, allowing the motor to decelerate gently. This soft stop function is essential in systems where sudden stopping could damage machinery or products.

Question: What are the protection features included?
Date Update:23/06/2025
Answer:

The 150-C60NBD includes comprehensive protection features:

  • Overload Protection (Trip Class 10/15/20)
  • Short Circuit Protection (Class J/L fuses recommended)
  • Under/Over Voltage Monitoring
  • DV/DT Protection up to 1000V/µs
  • Repetitive Peak Voltage Protection up to 1400V
