YCP5 series AC Motor Starter is suitable for circuits the alternating voltage up to690V,current up to 80A.The product works to control theoverload,phase loss,shortcircuit protection and infrequent starts of a three-phase squirel cage asynchronousmotor.The Motor Starter can protect the distributing line for infrequent loadtransfer,and it can also works as an isolator
CNC motor protection circuit breakers provide integrated protection and manual control for three-phase motors. Also known as MPCBs, motor starter protectors or manual motor starters, they protect motors against overloads, short circuits and phase failure.
The adjustable current setting allows the device to match the motor’s rated current. CNC YCP5, YCP6 and YCP7 series are suitable for pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors and industrial machinery.
A motor protection circuit breaker is designed specifically for electric motor circuits. Unlike a standard MCB, an MPCB accommodates motor starting current while providing adjustable overload and instantaneous short-circuit protection.
Applicable models also provide phase-failure protection. For frequent, remote or automatic switching, an MPCB is normally combined with an AC contactor.
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
| Overload Protection | Protects against sustained overcurrent and overheating. |
| Short-Circuit Protection | Rapidly interrupts severe fault currents. |
| Phase-Failure Protection | Reduces overheating risk after phase loss. |
| Adjustable Current | Matches protection to the motor rated current. |
| Manual Control | Supports local start, stop and reset. |
| Circuit Isolation | Allows safe circuit disconnection for maintenance. |
CNC offers three motor protector series for different current ranges and motor control requirements.
| Series | Rating | Main Features |
|---|---|---|
| YCP5 | Up to 690V, 80A | Overload, short-circuit and phase-failure protection. |
| YCP6 | Up to 690V, 80A | Integrated motor protection and circuit isolation. |
| YCP7 | Up to 690V, 32A | Compact protection for smaller motor circuits. |
Select the model according to the motor rated current, operating voltage, starting conditions and prospective fault current.
| Application | Typical Equipment | Protection Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Water Systems | Pumps and irrigation equipment | Continuous-load protection |
| HVAC | Fans, blowers and ventilation units | Frequent-start protection |
| Compressed Air | Air compressors | Overload and stall protection |
| Material Handling | Conveyors and lifting systems | Blocked-load protection |
| Industrial Machinery | Machine tools and packaging equipment | Integrated motor protection |
| Control Panels | Motor control panels and MCCs | Coordinated circuit protection |
Do not select an MPCB according to motor power alone. Check the motor nameplate and actual operating conditions.
| Factor | What to Check | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Rated Current | Motor nameplate current | Select the correct adjustment range |
| Voltage and Poles | Supply voltage and phase system | Ensure circuit compatibility |
| Breaking Capacity | Prospective fault current | Ensure safe fault interruption |
| Starting Conditions | Starting current and time | Prevent nuisance tripping |
| Contactor Coordination | Tested device combinations | Improve starter safety |
| Environment | Temperature, altitude and enclosure | Apply necessary derating |
Final selection should be based primarily on the motor nameplate current and verified against the manufacturer’s technical data.
