The power module MStart / MFeed comprises:
the electrical isolator
the short circuit protection (fuses or circuit
breaker)
contactor and any electrical control
equipment and status indication.
the sensor module (measuring the electrical
values, which are made available to the
process via the MControl processor module.
The integrated motor controller module MControl
(located in the control compartment) comprises:
the processor performing all the protection,
control functions and monitoring functions.
It sends and receives information to and from
the MStart / MFeed via an internal bus.
I/O interface modules providing an interface
to external components for both control and
indication.
The interface module MLink serves for the serial
gateway interface to higher level systems which
communicate through the internal bus to all
MControl modules.
A local Human System Interface MView is
available to monitor the MNS iS status and
display information for each connected motor /
