Product Description
Description The SyncPro consists of a programmable small logic controller
(SLC 500) with the following additional peripheral items:
• Data Table Access Module (DTAM)
• Power Factor Transducer
• Analog/Digital Pulse Board
• Conditioning Resistors
• Interposing Relays FCR and ESR
The SyncPro system is designed to provide supervisory protection
and field control to a brush-type synchronous motor controller,
proper field application timing, squirrel-cage protection against
long acceleration and stall conditions as well as running pullout
protection by monitoring motor power factor. When combined
with a suitable induction motor protection relay, the SyncPro
provides the necessary overload protection to the brush-type
synchronous motor.
Important: Although the SyncPro makes use of some standard
SLC 500 programmable controller components, it is imperative
that the controller is a dedicated unit expressly for the control and
protection of the field of a single synchronous motor. The
firmware and hardware configuration must only be used for its
designed purpose. Do not attempt to modify the controller in any
way for another use. No additional SLC control cards can be
added.
