KT4 Reduces panel space and saves money in Group Motor Installations
The KT4 can eliminate the need for larger and more expensive fuse blocks and fused disconnects, or circuit breakers. The potential cost savings in group motor installations according NEC 430-53c can be as much as 35% over conventional methods of branch circuit protection. And, because so many features are combined into one small unit, panel space can be slashed by as much as 60%. In addition, the KT4 line offers a wide application range from 0.1 to 16 FLA in installations up to 600V. For group motor applications, the KT4 series has a 250A group installation rating, with a withstand rating as high as 42 KAIC.

Horsepower ratings shown are the maximum rating of the switching capacity of the main contactors. The nal selection of the manual starter depends on the actual motor full load amps and service factor. Example #1: For a motor with a service factor of 1.15 or greater, use the motor nameplate full load amps and choose the motor starter with the appropriate current range. Motor F.L.A. 4.2A Service Factor 1.15 Select catalog number KT4-C2A-A63 (Range 4.0-6.3 Amps) Example #2: For a motor with a service factor less than 1.15, use the motor nameplate full load amps times 0.9 and choose the motor starter with the appropriate current range. Motor F.L.A. 4.2A Service Factor 1.0 Multiplier x 0.9 Effective Current = 3.78A Select catalog number KT4-C2A-A40 (Range 2.5-4.0 Amps)

Single phase horsepower ratings are based on wiring the 3 poles of the device in series. The KT4 motor circuit controller is approved for use in group installation according to NEC 430-53C. Reference Sprecher+Schuh UL le #E54612. The actual trip current is 120% of the dial setting. Although UL Testing of Manual Motor Starters allows for Group Installation with upstream Branch Circuit Protection maximum ratings as high as 250 amperes; it should be noted that NEC 2002 contains new restrictions under NEC 430-53D Single Motor Taps. KT4 should be applied as outlined in NEC 430-53D-1 or 430-53-D-2 to be in compliance. KT4 does not qualify as Tap Conductor Protection as required under NEC 430-53-D-3. Please refer to the Application notes located at the end of the KT7 section for more details on compliance.

The KT4-C2A manual motor starter limits short-circuit current Icc (prospective shortcircuit current). ID is the maximum cut-off current (highest instantaneous value of the limited short-circuit current). This value is indicated in the following diagram as a function of the system short-circuit current. Correspondingly the maximum forward j2 dt energy is limited. This value is indicated in the following diagram as a function of the system short-circuited current.

1) Operating Current of Thermal Releases: The adjustable inverse bimetal trip reliability protects motors against overloads. The curve shows the mean operating current at an ambient temperature of 20C starting from cold. In equipment at operating temperature, release time is less than or equal to release time from the cold state.

2) Operating Current of Magnetic Releases: Electromagnetic instantaneous releases react at a xed tripping current. At the upper thermal release setting, this tripping current is 11 times the set cur rent. Current To Be Set: Thermal releases meet the requirements for a thermal release of a starter in accordance with IEC 60947-4-1 f. If a different value is specied (such as reduced Ie in motors with an ambient temperature higher than 40C or a site altitude >2000 m above sea level), the rated operating current Ie must be adjusted.
