Compressor Motor DOL Starter
Drawing preview
The scenario

A three-phase compressor motor is controlled via a DOL starter with a pressure switch. The motor runs when system pressure is low, stopped by the pressure switch or emergency stop.

What is in this drawing

Read the decisions behind it.

01

Three-phase supply with main fuses

02

Contactor with three main contacts and auxiliary holding contact

03

Overload relay with thermal elements and NC control contact

04

Pressure switch NC in series with control circuit

05

Start/stop pushbuttons with holding circuit

Suitable for small to medium three-phase motors in compressor systems where pressure-based on/off control is required, providing simple and reliable starter design.
