Manufactured by ABB Electrification, this open-type starter is rated for 50 horsepower (HP) at 460-480V and features a continuous ampere rating of 90A. Its primary function is to safely start, stop, and protect three-phase induction motors from overloads and short circuits, ensuring operational continuity and equipment longevity. The open-type construction allows for flexible integration into custom control panels and machinery enclosures, providing a compact and adaptable solution for system designers. This starter is engineered to meet the stringent requirements of industrial environments, offering dependable performance for critical motor applications. The CR306E004 is part of ABB's CR306 series, known for its robust design and adherence to NEMA standards. Key specifications include a NEMA Size 3 rating, a 50 HP capacity, a 90A continuous ampere rating, and compatibility with 460-480V three-phase power systems. The open type configuration (Ordering code: CR306E004) is ideal for applications where the starter will be housed within a protective enclosure, allowing for tailored panel layouts and efficient space utilization. This product is manufactured in the USA. The CR306E series offers various enclosure types, including NEMA Type 1 (CR306E104), NEMA Type 12 (CR306E204), NEMA Type 3R (CR306E604), and NEMA Type 4/4X (CR306E404), providing options for different environmental conditions. For 575-600V applications, consider the CR306E005 model. For lower horsepower ratings at 460-480V, the CR306M004 offers 25 HP. The CR306M003 is suitable for 15 HP at 230-240V, and the CR306M002 for 7.5 HP at 115-120V.
