Product Overview

Chapter 1

Soft Stop

This feature can be used in applications that require an extended coast-to-rest
time. The voltage ramp-down time is user-adjustable from 0…120 seconds and is
adjusted independently from the starting time. The load will stop when the
output voltage drops to a point where the load torque is greater than the
developed motor torque.

Note:

Consult factory if settings over 30 seconds are required. The base rating of

the MV SMC Flex is two starts (or one start/stop combination) per hour,
30 seconds maximum for each operation. A stopping operation counts as a start
for purposes of thermal capacity calculations.
