Overview

The ABB CR306B104 is a NEMA Size 0, three-phase magnetic starter designed for reliable motor control in industrial applications. Rated for 5 HP at 460-480V, this starter features a continuous ampere rating of 18A, ensuring safe operation when motor full load current does not exceed this limit. Housed in a NEMA Type 1 enclosure, the CR306B104 provides protection against solid foreign objects, dust, and accidental contact, making it ideal for indoor industrial environments. The enclosure meets NEMA Type 1 standards for indoor use, safeguarding internal components from non-hazardous airborne contaminants. This starter is part of ABB’s CR306B series, optimized for applications requiring consistent and safe motor control. Its three-phase design ensures balanced power distribution, promoting efficient motor operation and longevity. The compact footprint allows flexible mounting options, particularly useful in space-constrained environments. The unit measures approximately 6.5 inches in height, 4.5 inches in width, and 5.5 inches in depth, with a weight of 3.2 lbs, facilitating easy integration into control panels or machinery. Key applications include conveyor systems, pumps, fans, machining equipment, compressors, and blowers. The CR306B104 is manufactured by ABB - Electrification (SKU: CR306B104) and is built for sustained performance in demanding industrial settings. For compatibility, verify that the motor’s full load current does not exceed the starter’s 18A continuous ampere rating. The starter includes a Class 10 overload relay with adjustable trip settings, allowing for precise protection tailored to specific motor loads. It operates within a temperature range of -25°C to 60°C (-13°F to 140°F) and is rated for a maximum ambient temperature of 40°C (104°F). The unit is UL listed and CSA certified, meeting North American safety standards for industrial control equipment.
