5:2.2.1 External Bypass contactor
An external by-pass contactor can be used for softstarter sizes PST30...300
(built in for PSTB370...1050).
Connect the contactor to terminals B1, B2 and B3 on the line side and terminals
2T1, 4T2 and 6T3 on the motor side.
The terminal markings are printed on the front label.
Do not use terminals B1, B2 or B3 for the “Inside Delta” connection. The
current measurement will be wrong.
