That's correct Alan Belson, We installed this starter to control the torque and speed of the motor during start-up by varying the resistance in the rotor. We used this to have a soft start and to help our pony motor during its initial start to have a soft slope of current and avoid excessive stress on the rotor winding. On its final run when the speed is already at its maximum, this starter will cut-off and the short circuit mechanism on the motor rotor will be engaged. Is anyone here have an idea what will be the future problem of having this starter? considering that we have 2KV voltage being dipped on it.. anyway, thank you so much Alan Belson.. I'll be temporarily out for some time.. I'll be back soon.. Thank you..
