You can control the softstarter in 3 different ways: The PSTX softstarter has protection functions to
• Hardwire inputs control protect the softstarter, motor and other equipment. All
protections can have automatic reset or manual reset.
• Keypad control (either attached to the softstarter front You can enable or disable the protection.
or detached and connected with the cable included)
Available protections are listed below:
• Fieldbus communication interface (by built in Modbus,
Anybus module or the FieldBus Plug with adapter) • EOL protection
You can use only one type of control at the same time. • Locked rotor protection
Default selection is hardware inputs control. • Phase reversal protection
INFORMATION • Current imbalance protection
Keypad control has the highest priority and • Overvoltage protection
overrides all other control methods.
• Under voltage protection
• Too long start time protection The softstarter has a number of fault detection functions
to signal malfunction at softstarter, motor or power
• Auto restart protection network level. The softstarter identifies external and
internal faults. The user cannot disable fault detection
3.1.2.1 User defined protection functions except for Emergency mode, chapter 7.20.1.
You can use your own specified protection, with the Available faults are listed below:
programmable digital input and an external device/sensor.
• Phase loss fault
The protection operates when the input signal comes at
high level (fieldbus or physical I/O). • High current fault
• Connection fault
• Overvoltage warning
• EOL warning

Because this function makes the motor

WARNING
If the softstarter is connected inside-delta and
using the Motor heating, this can cause damage
to the equipment.
WARNING
Because Motor heating function warms up the
motor we recommend to use a PTC or PT100
element for temperature monitoring.
INFORMATION
Motor heating only works when the softstarter is
connected in-line.

Motor heating has these parameters:
Dynamic brake
Dynamic brake is an intelligent variant of DC brake
starting with a period of dynamic braking followed by a
switch to DC brake. During the dynamic brake the firing
angle and thyristor firing sequence are continuously
recalculated depending on operating conditions. During
DC brake these are pre-determined. The reason for
switching to DC brake is because it is effective at
low speed but ineffective at high speed. During both
dynamic- and DC-brake the kinetic energy of the motor is
converted to heat that is dissipated in the rotor.
WARNING
Braking exerts a lot of stress on the thyristors so
from a thermal perspective a brake shortly after a
start can be counted as two consecutive starts.
INFORMATION
Using a softstarter to brake the motor will cause
noise and vibrations just like any other braking
method. If a fast stop time is required the brake
strength will have to be set to a large value which
will result in increased noise and vibration.
INFORMATION
Parameter 07.03 (Dynamic brake strength) and
07.04 (DC brake strength) are the ones that
affect the motor deceleration time. Parameter
07.02 (Motor brake time) only works as a
timeout. The goal should be to choose the lowest
possible braking strength and still fulfill the user’s
deceleration time requirements.
INFORMATION
To use Dynamic brake set parameter 02.02 (Stop
mode) to Dynamic brake.
INFORMATION
An external PTC or PT100 sensor to monitor the
motor temperature is recommended.

9.1 Regular maintenance
For warranty for damage on the thyristors, the
coordination type 2 is necessary.
• Make sure that all installation bolts/screws are
fastened. Tighten if necessary.
CAUTION
• Make sure that the softstarter is de-energized
before tightening the bolts/screws.
• Make sure that the airways are free from dirt and dust.
WARNING
Do not use pressurized air to clean the softstarter.
• Make sure that the fan works and rotates freely. The
blades must rotate without resistance.

CAUTION
Dangerous voltage: Can cause death or serious
injury. Always set the power switch to off and lock
out all power to this device before you start to
work on the equipment.
CAUTION
Make sure that the softstarter is de-energized
before you do maintenance.
Do not open the softstarter or touch live parts
when the main and supply voltage is connected.
INFORMATION
ABB personnel must follow the ABB CISE 15.4
instructions
The softstarter indicates a fault with LED Fault, and
the display shows which type of fault occurred.
When a protection is on, the LED Protection
illuminates and the display shows which type of
protection is active.
When a warning occurs, the display shows the type
of warning.
In this chapter you can also find issues that the
softstarter does not show, such as humming
sounds.
