The Allen Bradley 150-A650BBD soft starter from the SMC-50 series is a robust solid-state controller designed to optimize motor startup and shutdown. It offers versatile starting modes such as Selectable Kickstart and Current Limit Start, alongside stopping modes like Pump Stop and Soft Stop. The device supports DPI communication protocols and various parameter configurations, with three expansion ports for optional module integration. Designed for efficient wiring, it accommodates power, control, and signal groups, prioritizing safe separation to prevent coupling effects. This model includes motor overload protection for system safety, although users should supplement with short-circuit protection. Capable of up to 99 starts per hour, it accommodates many applications and features a dedicated port for the optional 20-HIM-A6 LCD display unit, facilitating parameter management and navigation. The 150-A650BBD supports motors up to 150 Hp, is housed in a NEMA Type 1 enclosure, and operates effectively across voltages from 200 to 690 VAC with both 50 and 60 Hz frequencies. With a compact form factor and energy-efficient operation, it is ideal for applications requiring high performance and reliability.
