RECOMMENDATION FOR OIL

Normal transformer oil according to VDE 0370/DIN 57370/IEC 296 is

applied, e.g. Shell Diala S2 ZU-I, Esso Univolt 56, BP Energol JS-HA.
Practical examinations have shown that it is not necessary to purify or
renew the oil filling even after a long working period as it is only
required to store heat energy and not to improve insulation.
The make or type of the transformer oil is not decisive, however in no
case may CLOPHEN, PYRANOLE or ASKAREL be filled in.

Service / Safety instructions L1.1 / FS / FSU

Safety instructions for the operation of starters
(In conformity with the low voltage directive 73/23/EEC)

1. General
In operation, starters, depending on their degree of protection, may have live, uninsulated and possibly also
moving or rotating parts, as well as hot surfaces.
In case of inadmissible removal of the required covers, of improper use, wrong installation or maloperation,
there is the danger of serious personal injury and damage to property.
All operations serving transport, installation and commissioning as well as maintenance are to be carried out by
skilled technical personnel (Observe IEC 364 or CENELEC HD 384 or DIN VDE 0105-100 and national
accident prevention rules!).
For the purposes of these basic safety instructions, "skilled technical personnel" means persons who are familiar
with the installation, mounting commissioning and operation of the product and have the qualifications needed
for the performance of their functions.

2. Intended use
Starters are components designed for inclusion in electrical installations or machinery.
In case of installation in machinery, commissioning of the starter (i.e. the starting of normal operation) is
prohibited until the machinery has been proved to conform to the provisions of the directive 98/37/EEC
(Machinery Safety Directive - MSD). Account is to be taken of EN 60204.
Commissioning (I.e. the starting of normal operation) is admissible only where conformity with the EMC
directive (89/336/EEC) has been established.
The starters meet the requirements of the low voltage directive 73/23/EEC. They are subject to the harmonised
Standards of the series prEN 50178/DIN VDE 0160 in conjunction with EN 60439-1/DIN VDE 0660, part 500.
The technical data as well as information concerning the supply conditions shall be taken from the rating plate
and from the documentation and shall be strictly observed.

3. Transport, storage
The instructions for transport, storage and proper use shall be complied with. The climatic conditions shall be in
conformity with prEN 50178.

4. Installation
The installation and cooling of the appliances shall be in accordance with the degree of protection. It is to take
into account a max. ambient temperature of 45C.
The starters shall be protected against excessive strains. In particular, no components must be bent or isolating
distances altered in the course of transportation or handling. No contact shall be made with electronic
components and contacts.
Starters contain electrostatic sensitive components which are liable to damage through improper use. Electric
components must not be mechanically damaged or destroyed (potential health risks).
Oil cooled starters must be filled with acidfree, mineral insulating oil of ambient temperature according to DIN
VDE 0370 corresponding IEC 296 (e.g. Shell Diala D, Esso UNIVOLT 52, BP T166 SGF, MOBILECT 37) up
to the middle of sight glass prior to commissioning.
Air cooled starters are equipped with a air inlet at the bottom and with a air outlet in class of protection IP23 at
the side. It is not allowed to cover this outlets. Distance to the walls > 0,5 m.

Page 2 of 3

5. Electrical connection
When working on live starters, the applicable national accident prevention rules (e.g. VBG 4) must be complied
with.
The electrical installation shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant requirements (e.g. cross sectional
areas of conductors, fusing, PE connection).
Observance of the limit values required by EMC law is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the installation
or machine.
Each unit is accompanied by a wiring diagram showing the electrical connections. Watch for good electrical
connections on terminals.
A correct polarity of the actuating motor is required to ensure proper function. In case the direction of rotation
compared with the wiring diagram and the description is not correct, the contact assembly should be brought to a
middle position. Polarity of the actuating motor must then be reversed by interchanging two phases (reverse
polarity of armature in case of DC or universal motors.)
If there are oil pumps, the sense of rotation is as well to check. For this the brass screwed cap on the motor
housing is to remove.
6. Operation
Installations which include starters shall be equipped with additional control and protective devices in
accordance with the relevant applicable safety requirements, e.g. Act respecting technical equipment, accident
prevention rules etc.
The technical data are found on the rating plate. During operation, all covers and doors shall be kept closed.
The starters are provided with notching facilities in each position and can be turned progressively from step to
step.
Only end limit positions of the starters are suitable for continuous operation. Keeping them in the intermediate
positions, even for temporary speed control, would case destruction of the unit.
Starters with remote drive are equipped with a pilot motor and a stepping mechanism. One complete revolution
will advance the switching gear properly by one step. As the catch roll engages the stepping wheel only during a
small angular movement, contact changing takes place rapidly. The individual contacts will always be fully
covered, because the stepping wheel acts also as a nothing wheel, and the actuating motor will be only cut off
whilst idling with stepping wheel out of mesh.
A switching procedure once initiated must not be interfered with by hand.
Controlling and locking as well as monitoring and protective functions (thermal motor protection, overcurrent
monitoring, thermostat, lock device etc.) may not be put out of operation, not even during trial service.
Systems may be mounted and operated only in the documented order.
7. Maintenance and servicing
Only carry out all work on the control devices, i.e. installation, connection, opening the device and maintenance,
when
- the system is free of electrical current,
- it cannot be switched on again and
- all drives are at a standstill
Before starting these works check the system to be without stresses using suitable tools.
The contact pressure and the connections should be checked regularly at larger intervals. Heavily worn contacts
must be replaced. Bearing and moving parts are to be greased sufficiently.
In case of oil cooled starters make sure, that oil is always free of physical pollution.
In case of air cooled starters the contacts must be maintained with an acid- and resinfree contact grease.
Should the catch roll be left engaged in the stepping wheel due to a supply failure, any attempt to proceed by
hand will prove impossible. In this case the motor shaft must be turned out of the mesh.

Page 3 of 3

8. Spare parts
When ordering spare parts, the 6 digit serial number of the equipment on the rating plate should always be
indicated to avoid incorrect supplies.

9. Warranty
Only in observance of and adherence to the respective valid operating instructions can the manufacturer's
warranty be upheld.

Description of Wiring Diagram

SF 1043c-1

The wiring diagram represents the internal wiring of the remote drive. The external
wiring may be derived from this diagram and can be changed to meet specific
safety and other measures the customers want to introduce.
The functioning of all equipment is checked by us. Proper operation of the drive can
however not be guaranteed unless the internal wiring remains unchanged and the
principle of the wiring is adhered too.
Watch for correct polarity of the pilot drive(s) when starting the drive.
The purposes of the various control members are as follows:

F3

temperature switch F3 is included in the stator circuitry. It operates at approx.

850C and prevents a further starting operation, which might initiate emergency
shut down via temperature switch F31.

F31

temperature switch F31 will deenergize the main drive in event of excessive
oil-temperature switch at approx. 1200C.

S301 an interlocking contact, that is closed only in the initial position of the control
gear thus permitting start of the motor only in this position, i.e. with total
starting resistor in circuit.
S302 works same as S301. It can be used for signalling purposes.
S35

is closed in the end position with the starting resistance completely shorted
out. It can be used for signalling, supervision etc. as desired.

Page 2 of 3
S50

is closed in each intermediate position and energizes then the relay K50.
Contact 11-12 of the relay K50 makes sure, that the mechanism has snapped
accurately into the position. It is linked in series with S301.
Contact 21-22 of the relay K50 opens the closing circuit of the contactor, so
that between the steps no new command will be effective. Mechanical damage
of the stepping mechanism, due by incorrect hand operation, is avoided by this
it prevents operation, if the drum controller is not properly adjusted to a full
step postion.
Contact 31-32 feeds pulses via relay K3 to relay K4. This circuit monitors the
performing of step charges.

S60

is closed within the whole operating range. Under emergency control by

handwheel the main line contactor will be tripped in case the initial or the limit
position are being exceeded due to maloperation. The latter is not possible
under automatic control.

S61

is a limit switch which opens the closing circuit of the control contactor prior to
reaching the limit position. Accurate stopping of the pilot drive by S81 will thus
be initiated.

S64

is open in the initial position. With the stator switch dropped out, it effects
travel beyond the limit position to the initial position, where the drive will be
stopped via step limit switch S81.

S69

bridges step interval monitoring after a starting procedure has been

completed.

S80

is interlocked with the clutch of the handwheel for emergency control. Upon
engaging the clutch for hand operation it opens the closing circuit of control
contactor. This prevents trouble by simultaneous hand- and remote-operation.

S81

is a step limit switch which opens the holding circuit of control contactor
momentarily after each completed step. It will, however, not become effective
unless the closing circuit of the control contactor has already been opened.
The drive will only be stopped accurately via S81 after a completed step, i.e.
in a proper drum position with pilot motor out of mesh.

Page 3 of 3

LOCKED ROTOR CONTROL

In order to protect the starting resistor against excessive currents which could
occur in event of the driven machine being blocked mechanically, a frequency
relay (F5) is installed.
F5 supervises rotor frequency which decreases as motor speed increases. If
rotor frequency does not decrease within a preset time lag (K7) to a stipulated
value, this will cause relay K8 to interrupt power flow by opening the external
mains contactor or circuit breaker. (Path Trip). Tripping will be indicated by
lamp H2 (extern).
Relay K8 remains engaged and thereby prevents switching on the mains
contactor KO until having pressed the reset button S51.
The metering input circuit of the frequency relay will bear up to 400 V. In case
of a higher rotor voltage at standstill, the starting resistor is tapped
accordingly.
Approximate dial settings:
F5 : 90 percent of full rated mains frequency
K7 : 20 percent of total starting time

Check List

NOTE: The check list has to be filled in before commissioning and should then be
returned to: HELMKE ORBIS GmbH, Ludwig-Erhard-Ring 7-9, 31152 Sarstedt

Requirement: The starter may only be put into operation by qualified

personnel.

Remarks:
Prior to attaching rotor cables to terminals K, L, M and before having linked
the slipring (wound rotor) motor to the power supply functional off load
tests on the rotor starter may be performed without having filled transformer
oil into the starter tank in order to facilitate handling and inspection.
If thereby the starter has proved faultless transformer oil may be filled in
before connecting up rotor cables (for further details see item 3).

Have steps been taken to prevent overload?

1.

Measuring Resistance Values

Prior to applying power to the stator side of the slipring motor and before
having attached rotor cable(s) to starter terminals K,L,M test the rotor starter:
1.1

Press down the handwheel and measure the ohmic values between
terminals K and L, K and M, L and M in each starter position.
(The handwheel can be fixed in the down position by use of a clip on the end of
shaft).

Page 3 of 7

Note down the values in the table below:

Position

K-L

K-M

L-M

In initial position the ohmic values between any two of the three rotor
terminals should be approx. 0.98 Ohms ( 10%).
The minimum ohmic value should read approx. zero Ohms and be in
final working position.
If the result is not satisfactory please contact HELMKE ORBIS immediately.
2.

Functional Test of the Pilot Drive Unit

2.1

Attach the control wires to the terminal strip of the pilot drive unit.
Apply power to the pilot drive unit only.
If the handwheel still is fixed in down position, release it.

Make sure the power supply to the stator side of the slipring motor continues
to remain interrupted, also in event of switching ON the slipring motor.
2.1.1 Does the starting resistance change from max. value 10% to approx.
zero within the run up time stated on the rating plate of the starter?
(Cross out what doesnt apply)

(If not, continue at item 5)

yes/no

Page 4 of 7
2.1.2 To check the step interval monitoring system keep the handwheel
pressed down for approx. 5 seconds at the beginning of a
simulated run up procedure.
After this time has run off, monitor system must trip.
After having released the handwheel the drum controller must
automatically return to first starting position with maximum resistance in
circuit.
Has the energy cut off signal been produced?

yes/no

(Cross out what doesnt apply)

(If the answer is no then continue at item 5)

Wiper relay K3 is and remains set to approx. 0.3 seconds on
principle. (For starters with step interval monitoring system only.)
2.1.3 In case of starters having a run up control system using rotor frequency
(locked rotor control) the corresponding relay settings must also be
checked.
A frequently adopted way of control setting will cut off energy if the
drive unit doesnt gain 10 percent of full speed beginning at standstill
within 20 percent of total run up time, i.e. timer K7 would be set to 20%
of run up time and frequency relay F5 would be set to 90% of mains
frequency.

4.

Measuring Insulation Resistance

Measuring insulation resistance between the 3 rotor terminals K,L,M and the
oil tank. The result should be approx. 10 megohms.
please enter the value: .......................megohms,
(measured with 500 V or 1000 V)
Final bench tests on starters in dry state yield values of approx. 80 to 100
megohms. With long storage periods and under the effect of moisture values
can drop to below 10 megohms. A field requirement would be to achieve at
least 1000 Ohm / V; (related to rotor Volts at standstill).

5.

Readjustments
If there has been a change in operating characteristics or mistuning which
necessitates readjustment proceed as below:
Change of run up time
A change of run up time will have to comply with instructions stipulated by
HELMKE ORBIS, achieved by adjustment of step intervals with relay K2.
This must always be verified by checking the complete run up time.
After having changed run up time it will also be necessary to reset the step
interval monitor!
Tuning the step interval monitor by resetting relay K4:
General rule:
Setting of K4 = maximum step interval + 1 to 2 seconds
(where 1 or 2 seconds is the tripping time)
For easy tuning of the step interval monitor the maximum period of time
between two consecutive pulses of K3 must be measured (LED lamps are on
the relay).
Time setting on relay K2 plus a time lag caused by the speed of the pilot
motor and tripping time 1 to 2 seconds add up to the required setting of K4.
The sensitivity of control settings on K4 necessitates practical testing. On
starters where the first step interval is longer than the following intervals
tuning only refers to the first step. This is achieved by pressing down the
handwheel before starting the pilot drive unit. Time then is measured from
start to trip.

Page 7 of 7

After having completed all changes run through the complete list once
more checking each detail!!
If serious deviations are found in any section of checking procedure the starter
may only be put to work on receipt of written approval by HELMKE ORBIS.
