Modular Motor Starter

Nov. 8, 2006
BL20 xStart motor starter modules allow 3-phase motor control to be connected to the same rack as standard I/O. BL20 xStart motor starter modules are mounted directly next to other BL20 modules, and are controlled by the same gateway.
This allows the motors to be controlled via DeviceNet, Profibus-DP or CANopen fieldbus protocols. BL20 motor starters contain a base and power module, and are available in direct online and reversing versions. The module’s base contains the I/O and communication electronics, and can be configured to allow power modules of various ratings to be used. Turck Inc.www.turck.com800.544.7769
