Manual Starters and Switches
General
Class MMS and MRS
These motor starting switches provide
manual ON / OFF control of single or
three-phase AC motors, where overload
protection is not required, or is provided
separately.
These devices are suitable for use with
AC three-phase motors up to 10 HP.
Compact construction and a 600 volt
rating make these switches suitable for
a wide range of industrial and commer-
cial uses. Typical applications include
small machine tools, pumps, fans, con-
veyors, and many other types of electri-
cal machinery. They can also be used
on non-motor loads such as resistance
heaters.
The continuous current rating is 30
amperes at 250 volts max., 26.4 am-
peres at 277 volts max., 20 amperes
at 600 volts max, 30 ampere resistive
at 600 volts max.
Class MMS, two-speed manual switch-
es may be used with separate winding,
three-phase or single-phase AC motors
where overload protection is not
required, or is provided separately. Two
switches are employed to give ON /
OFF control in each speed.
Class MRS, reversing manual switches
provide a compact means of starting,
stopping and reversing AC motors where
overload protection is not required, or is
provided separately. They are suitable for
use with three-phase squirrel cage
motors, and for single-phase motors
which can be reversed by reconnecting
motor leads. Two switches are used, one
to connect the motor for forward rota-
tion, and one for reverse.

versions allowing more wiring space. A
zinc alloy die casting or non-metallic
enclosure is used for NEMA Type 4
enclosures. NEMA 7 & 9 enclosures are
supplied as standard with provisions for
locking in the ON or OFF position.
Standard red or non-standard green
neon pilot light units are available facto-
ry installed in NEMA Type 1 surface and
flush mounting, and NEMA Type 4
enclosures, or as a field modification kit
for NEMA Type 1 enclosures and gray
flush plates.
An “Emergency-OFF” toggle operator
extender is available for NEMA Type 1
surface mounted units. The extender
has a red vinyl button that provides a
fast and easy method for locating and
switching the device’s toggle operator
into the OFF position. The Emergency
OFF Actuator is available in kit form
only for field installation.
An optional Handle Guard / Lock-OFF on
NEMA Type 1 enclosed starters pre-
vents accidental operation of the toggle
and also allows the toggle operator to
be padlocked in either the ON or the
OFF position. This handle guard can be
factory installed on NEMA Type 1
Class SMF fractional horsepower
starters provide overload protection as
well as manual ON / OFF control for
small motors in a variety of industrial
and commercial installations.
Available in one or two pole versions,
these devices are suitable for use with
AC single phase motors to 1 HP. Two
pole starters can also be used with DC
motors to 3⁄4 HP. Typical applications
include fans, conveyors, pumps, and
small machine tools. The continuous
current rating is 16 amperes.
Overload trip assembly motor protection
is provided by a Type SMFH thermal
heater element which must be installed
before the starter will operate.
Two-Speed Class SMF manual starters
are designed for control of small single
phase AC motors having separate wind-
ings for high and low speed operation.
Two toggle operated starters are used,
with overload protection included for
each motor winding. Surface mounting
devices, and those with a gray flush
plate, utilize a mechanical interlock
which allows direct control of the motor
by means of the toggle operators.

Class 12 manual starting switches are
designed to economically start and stop
inherently protected single and polyphase
motors as used in light machine tools,
pumps, blowers, and vent-fans. They are
also used as ON and OFF switches for
resistive loads such as heating.
This switch is compact, economical, and
easily wired using pressure type screw
connectors. A rugged over center toggle
mechanism results in a long life with
weld free operation. It is available for sur-
face mounting in a NEMA 1 enclosure,
for flush mounting on a standard depth
switch box or in custom panels. A pilot
light for 120, 208 / 240, or 480 volts may

Manual Motor Starters and Contactors
General / Wiring Diagrams
Application
Across the line manual motor starters
and contactors provide control for
machinery where start stop remote con-
trol is not required (optional remote stop
available). Class 11 manual starters are
used for single and polyphase motors up
to 10 Hp. Starters have melting alloy
overload relays which help protect
against damage due to excessive current
caused by a sustained overload, low line
voltage, or single phasing of the motor.
Contactors provide control for inherently
protected motors. Typical applications
include metal and wood-working machin-
ery, grinders, power saws, conveyors,
fans pumps, blowers, textile and packag-
ing machinery, slitters, and paper cutters.
Features
Class 11 manual controllers have front
accessible pressure type wire connec-
tors. Ample wiring space is provided for
easy wiring.
A complete line of general purpose and
industrial duty enclosures is available as
well as open type mounting for custom
built enclosures. These manual con-
trollers are available with low voltage pro-
tection which will automatically open the
power poles when the voltage drops or
the power is interrupted. A remote stop
function may be incorporated with the
low voltage protection coil as a factory
option to provide remote or semi-auto-
matic operation.
Class 11 controllers provide the OSHA
requirements for protecting personnel
from potential injury caused by the auto-
matic start up of machinery following a
voltage drop or power interruption when
low voltage protection is specified.
Open styles and devices in NEMA 1, 4, 7
& 9, 12 enclosures can be padlocked in
the OFF position.

Magnetic Contactors
General
Applications
Class 40 industrial magnetic contactors
are designed for electrical loads such as
heating, lighting, transformer and capaci-
tor switching, and AC motor starting.
They control motors already protected by
inherent or other types of overload
devices. Used with appropriate pilot con-
trol, a contactor provides a choice of
undervoltage protection or release.
Class 40 contactors Size 0 thru 6 feature
carefully wound coils encapsulated to
seal out moisture. Encapsulation also pro-
motes heat transfer and resists electrical,
mechanical, and thermal stresses.

Description
Combination lighting contactors are well
suited for industrial, highway and area
lighting applications, or where a lighting
circuit may have to be disconnected for
periodic maintenance. They may also be
used for resistance heating loads.
CLH Lighting Contactors
AC lighting contactors provide a safe con-
venient means of local or remote switch-
ing of relatively large tungsten, fluores-
cent or mercury arc lamp loads.
Siemens AC lighting contactors are
designed to withstand the large initial
inrush currents of tungsten lamp loads
without the contacts welding. They are
fully rated contactors and do not require
any derating as do standard motor con-
trol contactors. They are UL Listed and
CSA Certified.
Class CLH electrically-held lighting con-
tactors provide a safe convenient means
of local or remote switching for tungsten
and ballast lamp loads, mercury arc
lamps, 3 phase resistive heating, 480
volts line to line, 277 volts line to neutral.
Available in 20 ampere through 400
ampere sizes in NEMA Type 1, 3R / 12, 4
stainless steel, 4X non-metallic type
enclosures and open type. The CLH con-
tactors are available in 2–12 pole 20
ampere, 3–12 pole 30 and 60 ampere
and 3 pole in 100–400 ampere sizes. UL
Listed and CSA certified.
CLM Lighting Contactors
The CLM Lighting Contactors can be
used with metal halide, mercury vapor,
quartz halogen, tungsten, and fluorescent
lighting. They provide reliable and conve-
nient lighting control in numerous applica-
tions, such as industrial plants, schools,
hospitals, office buildings, shopping cen-
ters, airports, stadiums, etc. The CLM’s
are listed under UL 508 with no derating
when used open or enclosed. Optional
solid-state control modules are available
to allow control of the CLM lighting con-
tactors directly from energy management
systems, microprocessors, photoelectric
cells, timers, and similar control devices.
They permit programmable time schedul-
ing of loads, automatic control of lighting
near windows to allow the use of natural
ambient lighting levels, and manual over-
ride of all lighting circuits from any num-
ber of local control stations or from a
central location. These optional modules
are integrally mounted onto the base of
the lighting contactor.
Magnetic Latch Operation
A permanent magnet is built into the con-
tactor structure of the 30,60,100, and
200 ampere contactors that will maintain
the contactor in its energized state indefi-
nitely without using control power. When
energized, a DC current is applied that
produces a magnetic field that reinforces
the polarity of the permanent magnet,
and the contactor pulls in immediately.
The current to the coil is disconnected by
the coil clearing interlock. In order to drop
out the contactor it is necessary to apply
a field through the OFF coil in the reverse
direction to the permanent magnet. This
momentarily cancels the magnetic attrac-
tion and the contactor drops out.

Type MCS Disconnect Switches
Type MCS Disconnect Switches feature
a quick-make, quick-break mechanism to
insure proper switch operation. With a
high fault withstand rating of 100 kA at
480 volts ac, when fused with Class R
rated size fuses, MCS switches meet
stringent industry standards set forth by
the automotive, petro-chemical, and pulp
and paper industries.
With visible blade contacts for ease of
inspection, removable line shields, and
front removable fuse clips and lugs,
disconnect switches are UL recognized
and CSA certified. They are available with
Class H, J, and R fuse kits for a wide
range of fused, non-fused, and over-
fusing options.
The Type ETI circuit breaker, sometimes
called a Motor Circuit Interrupter, is
a device designed specifically for applica-
tion in motor circuits. The ETI is a
magnetic only protective device designed
to provide protection against short
circuit current.
The instantaneous-only type ETI circuit
breaker employs adjustable magnetic
trip settings to allow broader application
ranges and a higher degree of motor
short circuit protection.

sizes exceed the motor ratings.
Across the line or full voltage starting is
used when motor starting torque can be
applied safely and current inrush does
not produce an objectional voltage drop.
All starters are supplied with a NO hold-

appropriate pilot device will provide low
voltage protection or release.

Features
Size 0–6 Magnetic Starters include the
following standard features:
Application
Molded Coil — Magnetic coils are care-
fully wound and then sealed in epoxy.
Encapsulation helps seal out moisture,
promotes heat transfer, and resists elec-
trical, mechanical, and thermal stresses.
Dual Voltage / Dual Frequency Coil —
Starters are available with dual voltage,
dual frequency coils. They are designed
to operate on either 50 or 60 Hertz.
Class 14 industrial magnetic starters are
designed for across-the-line starting of
single-phase and polyphase motors.
ESP100 starters combine the rugged
characteristics of a NEMA rated contac-
tor with a solid state overload which
provides phase loss protection. It offers
the industrial user greater protection
and added life for motors in heavy duty
applications. The inherent benefits of the
ESP100 result in cost savings as well.
Thermal Overload Relays — Melting
alloy is supplied as standard; optional
bimetal overload relay is available.
ESP100 Solid State Overload Relays —
These standard features of the ESP100
provide Extra Starter Performance.
Ambient compensated bimetal version is
also available. Bimetal types are convert-
ible from manual to automatic reset and
can be furnished with standard or quick
trip heater elements. Melting alloy over-
loads include a trip indicator and manual
test feature. An isolated normally open or
normally closed contact is available for
use on melting alloy overloads. Bimetal
overloads are also available with NC and
NO (SPDT) Form C contacts.
Starter with thermal overload relays
(together with the proper heater ele-
ments) help provide protection to motor
windings from harmful currents and the
resultant temperature rise that may be
caused by overloading the motor, sus-
tained low line voltage, or stalled rotor.
½

45 Degree, Wedge Action — The 45
degree, wedge action contacts reduce
tracking and provide faster arc quench-
ing. The resulting self cleaning and
reduced contact bounce mean cooler
operation and longer life for the large
silver cadmium oxide contacts.
Terminal Design — Control terminals
are self rising pressure type.
Auxiliary Contacts — Front mounted as
well as side mounted auxiliary contacts
are available. A maximum of four can be
mounted on sizes 0 through 13⁄4, three
on Sizes 2 through 6.

Siemens solid-state overload relay protec-
tion is provided standard for starter sizes
6 through 8. Improvements in motor
designs and manufacturing capabilities
have resulted in decreasing physical
motor size to obtain the same horse-
power, making them more sensitive to
overloads. Previous motors had a higher
tolerance for overloads and made applica-
tion of electromechanical overload relays
satisfactory for protection. The bigger the
motor, the more there is riding on mar-
ginal protection and high rewind costs.

Full-voltage AC magnetic multi-speed
controllers are designed to control recon-
nectable squirrel-cage induction motors
for operation at two, three or four differ-
ent constant speeds depending on the
construction of the motor. These con-
trollers are available in combination and
non-combination types.
Dimensions
The speed of an induction motor is a
function of the supply frequency and the
number of poles of the motor winding. To
obtain different speeds with a fixed sup-
ply frequency, the number of magnetic
poles of the motor must be changed.
Characteristics at any speed are similar to
those of a single-speed motor. There are
two basic methods for providing multiple
combinations:

Separate-Winding Motors have a
separate winding for each speed.
This motor construction is relatively
simple, and a wide variety of speeds
can be selected. Separate winding
motors with delta connected motor
windings require one corner to be
opened on each unused winding.
Consequent-Pole Motors have a
single winding for two speeds. Extra
winding taps are brought out for
reconnection for different numbers of
stator poles. The controller is more
complicated, and speed range is lim-
ited to a 2-to-1 ratio.

Reduced Voltage Starters — Electromechanical
General
Auto Transformer Starter
Wye Delta Starter
Part Winding Starter
Operation
Operation
Operation
At starting, the auto transformer reduces
motor terminal voltage to 50, 65, or 80
percent of line voltage. For a timed inter-
val, a segment of the transformer coil is
connected in series (as an inductor) with
the motor. Then a contactor automatically
connects the motor across the line and
shorts out the inductor.
Initially the starter connects the motor
on a Wye connection, reducing voltage
across the winding to approximately
58 percent. Starting torque and current
is about 33 percent of across the line.
After a time delay the motor is
connected Delta.
Part winding starters apply starting
current in timed steps to part winding
motors. Two step controllers apply volt-
age through one starter to one motor
winding followed by the second starter
which connects voltage to the second
winding. The timer may be adjusted to
automatically close the second controller
at the most favorable time to minimize
voltage fluctuations.

Solid-State Reduced Voltage Starters
General
Shorted SCRቢ
Operation
The solid state motor controller uses sili-
If one or more shorted SCRs are detect-
ed, the starter will not energize. A fault
LED will light and if provided with a
shunt trip, the main circuit breaker will
trip.
con controlled rectifiers (SCR’s) to control
the voltage to the motor windings. Each
SCR acts as a switch that can be turned
on with any electronic trigger signal at
any point on the voltage waveform and
turns off when the current waveform
crosses zero. Two SCR’s are used in a
back-to-back arrangement in each phase
to allow alternating current to pass to
the motor.
Pump Stopቢ
This option eliminates water hammer in
pumping systems, by giving a controlled
decel to the motor voltage. This process
allows for smooth pressure reduction
and quiet check valve operation.
Phase Loss
The controller will trip off the line if one
or more phases is lost.
Class 70 / 71
3-Phase Control Configuration
Siemens-Furnas Class 70 / 71 combines
Digital Signal Processor control and sili-
con controlled rectifier (SCR) technolo-
gies to provide optimum AC induction
motor starting and operation. It provides
soft start, energy savings,* soft stop,*
and added protective features.
The basic controller consists of electronic
circuit boards linked via flat cable connec-
tors. The main functions of the basic
assembly are to monitor the operating
parameters of the controller and to con-
trol the firing sequence of the SCR’s.
The power module located below the
basic controller controls power to the
motor. The incoming and motor load
connections are made to terminal blocks
located on the top and bottom of the
power module.
When SCR triggering is delayed, the volt-
age to the load is reduced. This phase-
controlled operation provides soft starting
with stepless acceleration. Once the
motor is running, voltage reduction can
improve the motor’s operating point at
partial load, saving energy and lowering
the reactive current.
The starters are available either as NEMA
Type 1, 12, or 4 enclosures. Units are
supplied with solid-state overload relays
as complete starters, or as combination
starters with fusible, non-fusible discon-
nect, or thermal magnetic circuit breakers
with or without shunt trip features.
3RW2 Phase Control
Additional options are also available.
The Class 70 / 71 is designed to operate
3 phase AC induction motors at 208 to
575 volts and 6.1 to 960 amperes at 50
or 60 Hertz.

Indicator Lights — Type 3SBO
Pilot Device Options
3SBO pilot devices are built by Siemens in
two basic forms - 1) as assembled for the
most frequently used configurations, or 2)
as subassemblies for greater flexibility.
LED Indicating Lights (Optional)
Since LED’s consume less power, their
life is 10 to 20 times that of conventional
incandescent lamps. They also provide
greater resistance to shock and vibration.
Where lamp integrity and low mainte-
nance is crucial, the 3SB0 LED indicator
is recommended.
Application
3SB0 devices are heavy duty oiltight,
watertight, and dusttight (NEMA Type 4,
4X, 13, IP65). They are used in industrial
control circuits at 600V or less. 3SBO
pilot devices are available in two diame-
ters, 7/8” and 1-13/64” (22 and 30 mm).
7/8” (22 mm) Mounting
Special contact blocks are available for
solder connection to printed circuit
boards. When used with the special
operator adaptor, they present a unique
solution to multiple button operator
panels.
Contact Blocks
The operator is inserted into the hole in
the panel from the front and twisted into
the contact block holder. The unit is then
fixed from behind by means of two set
screws which are located in the contact
block holder, preventing the unit from
working loose or twisting.
One line of contact blocks fits both size
devices. All have parallel double break
contacts with wiping action and reliability

Voltage Limit: To set a soft start, no
need to know full load amps regardless
of motor size (it limits inrush current dur-
ing the starting period). It reduces peak
torques at near synchronous speed com-
pared to current limit start.
Impulse Start: Provides breakaway
torque for high friction loads such as
crushers or mixers, it reduces motor
heating compared to ramp starts.
Shunt Trip: For positive isolation on fault
conditions; in case of 2 shorted SCR’S.
Emergency Start: With a shorted SCR,
controller should be able to soft start and
run to save the process.
Under / Over Voltage: Under over volt-
age protection prevents motor and con-
troller damage.
