Caution Statements
1
This symbol is used throughout this manual to draw attention to topics of
special importance to the installation and operation of MVS Series soft
starters.
Caution Statements cannot cover every potential cause of equipment damage but
can highlight common causes of damage. It is the installer's responsibility to
adhere to all instructions in this manual, to follow good electrical practice and to
seek advice before operating this equipment in a manner other than as described
in this manual.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Ensure that the soft starter is completely isolated from the power supply before
attempting any work on the unit.
Entry of metal swarf into the cabinet can cause equipment failure.
Do not apply voltage to the control input terminals. These are active 24 VDC
inputs and must be controlled with potential free circuits.
Ensure contacts or switches operating the control inputs are suitable for low
voltage, low current switching (ie gold flash or similar).
Ensure cables to the control inputs are segregated from AC power and control
wiring.
Some electronic contactor coils are not suitable for direct switching with PCB
mount relays. Consult the contactor manufacturer/ supplier to see if this is
advisable.
Do not connect power factor correction capacitors to the output of MVS soft
starters. If static power factor correction is employed, it must be connected to
the supply side of the soft starter.
The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative
purposes. The information contained in this manual is subject to change at any
time and without prior notice. In no event will responsibility or liability be accepted
for direct, indirect or consequential damages resulting from the use or application
of this equipment.
WARNING - ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
MVS soft starters contain dangerous voltages when connected to line
voltage. Only a competent electrician should carry out the electrical
installation. Improper installation of the motor or the soft starter may cause
equipment failure, serious injury or death. Follow this manual, the National
Electrical Code (NEC®) and local safety codes.
SHORT CIRCUIT
MVS soft starters are not short circuit proof. After severe overload or short
circuit, the operation of the soft starter should be fully tested.
GROUNDING AND BRANCH CIRCUIT PROTECTION
It is the responsibility of the user or person installing the soft starter to
provide proper grounding and branch circuit protection according to the
National Electrical Code (NEC®) and local safety codes.

2.1
Overview
The MVS Series provides compact and robust soft start solutions for control of
medium voltage motors. MVS soft starters provide a complete range of motor and
system protection features and have been designed for reliable performance in the
most demanding installation situations.
Each MVS soft starter comprises two elements:
•
•
a power assembly
a controller module
The power assembly and controller module are supplied as a pair and share the
same serial number. Care should be taken during installation to ensure the correct
controller and power assembly are used together.
Each MVS is also supplied with two fibre-optic cables, to connect the controller
module to the power assembly, and three non-conduction resistor assemblies,
allowing the soft starter to be tested with a low-voltage motor (< 500 VAC).

Installation
Key Features
The MVS offers several special functions to ensure safe and simple installation and
configuration.
Comprehensive Simulations
The MVS offers software-based simulation functions to check all aspects of
operation, including starting and stopping, protection mechanisms and signal inputs
and outputs. The simulations are accessed via the Commissioning Menu.
Low Voltage Test Mode
The low voltage test mode lets commissioning staff check the soft starter's
electrical configuration safely, without requiring access to specialised medium
voltage equipment. The MVS can start and stop a small three-phase motor, testing
associated equipment such as contactors and relays.

Mounting Instructions - Power Assembly
All MVS models have an IP00 rating and must be installed inside an enclosure.
The power assembly should be installed with 100 mm clearance above for
isolation. No clearance is required below or at the sides.
min 100 mm (3.93 inch)
The power assembly is mounted in place using four M12 bolts. One bolt is
required through each corner at the base of the unit, tightened to a torque of
40 Nm. Individual phase arms are secured within the frame using three M10 bolts,
tightened to a torque of 17 Nm.

Main Contactor
The MVS must always be installed with a main contactor. Select a contactor with
an AC3 rating greater than or equal to the full load current rating of the connected
motor.
The main contactor is associated with terminals L1, L2, L3 on the supply side of the
soft starter. The coil is associated with output terminals 13, 14 of the MVS (refer to
Diagram 1: Standard Power Circuit Configuration on page 16).
To ensure that the potentially dangerous medium voltage area is isolated from the
low voltage control area, power is supplied to the main contactor coil from the
control voltage terminal block (refer to Diagram 4: Internal Wiring on page 21).
5.3
Bypass Contactor
The MVS must always be installed with a bypass contactor. Select a contactor
with an AC1 rating greater than or equal to the full load current rating of the
connected motor.
The bypass contactor is associated with terminals L1, L2, L3 on the supply side of
the soft starter, and bypass terminals T1B, T2B, T3B on the motor side. The coil is
associated with output terminals 23, 24, and the auxiliary Normally Open contact is
associated with input terminals C73, C74 of the soft starter (refer to Diagram 1:
Standard Power Circuit Configuration on page 16).
To ensure that the potentially dangerous medium voltage area is isolated from the
low voltage control area, power is supplied to the bypass contactor coil from the
control voltage terminal block (refer to Diagram 4: Internal Wiring on page 21).

Power Factor Correction
Power factor correction capacitors should be selected based on the motor data and
the required final power factor.
If power factor correction capacitors are being used, select a contactor according to
the required kVAr. The contactor must be connected on the supply side of the soft
starter. The power factor correction capacitor contactor coil is associated with
output terminals 33, 34 of the soft starter's power interface PCB.
To ensure that the potentially dangerous medium voltage area is isolated from the
low voltage control area, power is supplied to the power factor correction capacitor
contactor coil from the control voltage terminal block (refer to Diagram 4: Internal
Wiring on page 21).
NOTE
The capacitor bank must be fed from the supply side of the soft starter.
5.7
Line Inductors
Line inductors are required if the cable run between the soft starter and the motor
is greater than 200 m. Line inductors should be installed outside the panel,
between the soft starter output (terminals T1, T2, T3) and the motor. Contact your
local supplier for selection details.
5.8
Transient/ Overvoltage Protection
Overvoltage protection should be installed if there is a risk of high transients at the
installation. If required, use the optional Overvoltage Protection Kit. Contact your
local supplier for details.

Control Supply Transformer
The MVS requires a low voltage control supply (110~130 VAC or 220~240 VAC).
If low voltage is not available, a transformer is required. Use a transformer with
primary voltage matching the mains voltage, and secondary voltage of 110 VAC.
Use a single phase 500 VA transformer with protection fuses on both the primary
and secondary sides (refer to Diagram 2: Complete Power Circuit Configuration on
page 18).

The soft starter's operation can be controlled in three ways:
•
•
•
using the buttons on the MVS Controller
via remote inputs
via a serial communication link
The <LCL/RMT> button controls whether the MVS will respond to local control (via
the MVS Controller) or remote control (via the remote inputs). Serial
communication is always enabled in local control mode, and can be enabled or
disabled in remote control mode (refer to parameter 4-B).
The MVS has three fixed inputs for remote control. These inputs should be
controlled by contacts rated for low voltage, low current operation (gold flash or
similar).

MVS soft starters offer programming and simulation features specifically designed
to make commissioning safe and easy.
7.1
Simulation Tools
Software simulation functions allow the MVS to be tested without a motor
connected, to confirm that the soft starter's control circuits are operating correctly.
There are three simulation modes available:
•
•
•
Run simulation: simulates a motor starting, running and stopping to confirm
that the soft starter has been installed correctly.
Protection simulation: simulates activation of each protection mechanism to
confirm that the soft starter is responding correctly in each situation.
Signalling simulation: simulates output signalling to confirm that outputs are
operating correctly.
For details of the simulation functions, refer to Commissioning Menu: Simulation
Tools on page 30.
7.2
Low Voltage Test Mode
The MVS can be connected to a low voltage motor (≤ 500 VAC) for testing. This
allows the user to thoroughly test the soft starter and its associated power and
control circuits. The low voltage test mode provides a means of testing the soft
starter's configuration without requiring a full medium voltage test facility. To
perform the low voltage test, one non-conduction resistor assembly must be
connected to each phase arm (three resistor assemblies are supplied with the soft
starter).
During the low voltage test, the soft starter's input, output and protection settings
can be tested. Low voltage mode is not suitable for testing soft starting or soft
stopping performance.
To operate the MVS in low voltage test mode:
1. Isolate the soft starter from the motor and the mains supply.
2. Connect one non-conduction resistor assembly to each phase arm.
For V02, V03 and V04 units:
Clip one end of the resistor assembly to the plated hole on the non-conduction
PCB. The non-conduction PCB is located at the top of the phase arm, behind
the long round grading resistor (on the left hand side when viewed from the
front). Clip the other end of the resistor assembly to any point on the steel
bracket behind the other grading resistor.

other end of the resistor assembly through the phase arm, in front of the three
grading resistors, and clip it to the steel bracket in front of the grading resistor
on the other side of the phase arm (this bracket looks the same as the bracket
in front of the non-conduction PCB).

3. Connect T1, T2, T3 of the soft starter to a three phase motor with full load
current greater than 5 A. Connect L1, L2, L3 of the soft starter to three phase
mains supply with voltage less than 500 VAC (frequency 50 Hz or 60 Hz).
4. Set parameter 1-A Motor Full Load Current to the value shown on the motor
name plate. Set parameters 3-U Overvoltage Level and 3-W Undervoltage
Level to suit the low voltage mains supply.
5. Switch on control and mains supply, and use the MVS to start the motor. The
start command can be sent from the MVS Controller or via the remote input.
Monitor the soft starter's display and verify the line voltage readings.
6. Stop and restart the motor several times to confirm correct and consistent
operation.
7. When testing is complete, isolate the soft starter from the mains supply.
Disconnect the soft starter from the motor and mains voltage, then remove
control voltage. Remove the non-conduction resistor assembly from each
phase arm.
WARNING
After low voltage mode testing, ensure that the non-conduction resistor
assembly is removed from each phase arm before connecting the soft
starter to a medium voltage motor. If the non-conduction resistor
assemblies remain on the phase arms, the soft starter may suffer severe
damage.

OPERATION: KEY FEATURES
Section 3
Operation
Key Features
MVS soft starters offer several special functions to ensure ease of use and to
provide optimal motor control in all environments and applications.
Dual Parameter Set
The MVS can be programmed with two separate sets of operating parameters.
This allows the soft starter to control the motor in two different starting and stopping
configurations.
The secondary motor settings (parameter groups 12 and 13) are ideal for slip-ring
motors, dual speed motors, or conventional (squirrel-cage) motors which may start
in two different conditions (such as loaded and unloaded conveyors).
NOTE
MVS soft starters are not suitable for controlling two separate motors.
The secondary parameter set should only be used for a secondary
configuration of the primary motor.
Customisable Protection
The MVS offers comprehensive protection to ensure safe operation of the motor
and soft starter. The protection characteristics can be customised extensively to
match the exact requirements of the installation.
Advanced Thermal Modelling
Intelligent thermal modelling allows the soft starter to predict whether the motor can
successfully complete a start. The MVS uses information from previous starts to
calculate the motor's available thermal capacity, and will only permit a start which
is predicted to succeed.
Comprehensive Event and Trip Logging
The MVS has a 99-place event log to record information on soft starter operation.
A separate trip log stores detailed information about the last eight trips.
Informative Feedback Screens
A large-format screen allows the MVS to display important information clearly.
Comprehensive metering information, details of starter status and last start
performance allow easy monitoring of the starter's performance at all times.

Simulation Tools
Software simulation functions allow the user to test the soft starter's operation
without applying voltage to the motor. This allows the user to test control circuits
and associated equipment. There are three simulation modes available:
•
•
•
Run simulation: simulates a motor starting, running and stopping to confirm
that the soft starter has been installed correctly.
Protection simulation: simulates activation of each protection mechanism to
confirm that the soft starter is activating correctly in each situation.
Signalling simulation: simulates output signalling to confirm that outputs are
operating correctly.
The simulation tools can be accessed via the Commissioning Menu. Press the
<SETUP TOOLS> button then use the ▼ button to scroll through the menu to the
required simulation.
NOTE
The simulation tools are only available if the Programming Menu is
unlocked (parameter 20-B Adjustment Lock is set to Off).

Using the MVS to Control a Motor
To soft start the motor, press the <START> button on the MVS Controller or
activate the Start remote input. The motor will start using the start mode selected
in parameter 2-A.
To soft stop the motor, press the <STOP> button on the MVS Controller or activate
the Stop remote input. The motor will stop using the stop mode selected in
parameter 2-H.
To emergency stop the motor using the soft starter, one of the programmable
inputs (parameters 4-C and 4-D) must be configured for emergency stop. When
the input is activated, the soft starter will remove power from the motor and open
the main contactor. The motor will coast to stop.
To reset a trip on the soft starter, press the <RESET> button on the MVS Controller
or open the Reset remote input.

• long enough for the rotor resistance contactor to close
• short enough for the motor to retain speed
parameter 9-D Slip-Ring Conduction Retard defines the level of conduction at
the start of the low resistance current ramp. Set a value which is:
• low enough to avoid a current pulse
• high enough for the motor to retain speed

Motor, System and Soft Starter Protection Mechanisms
The MVS incorporates extensive protection features to ensure safe operation of the
motor, system and soft starter. Most protection features can be customised to suit
the installation. Use parameter group 3 to control the situation where the
protections will activate and parameter group 21 to select the soft starter's
response. The default response is to trip the soft starter.
9.4
Motor Overload Protection
The MVS offers two forms of motor overload protection:
•
•
a motor thermal model that monitors the performance of the motor and
calculates its status at all times. This protection is based on the motor
information programmed in parameter group 1, and the thermal model adjusts
itself according to the motor's recent operating history (including temperature
rise from previous operation). This model provides finer motor protection than
the time-overcurrent model, if the programmed motor information is accurate.
a time-overcurrent model that calculates the motor's status according to a
predefined performance curve. This method is based on IEEE standard
C37.112-1996 (Inverse-Time Characteristic Equations for Overcurrent Relays)
and provides similar protection to a relay. This model may suit users familiar
with time-overcurrent protection models, but provides coarse motor protection.
The two methods offer similar kinds of protection and we recommend using only
one of the two methods.
