Prepackaged Heavy Duty Solid State “PR” Model Converters opens up a wider range of applications than the standard models. That’s because these models are designed for use with motor running capacitors. Run capacitors can help your motor operate closer to the rated horsepower of the motor. These static converters are 100% solid state, no chattering, and no regenerative effects on shut off, no contacts to burn. These models also provide significantly more starting torque than the standard models.
PR Model Converters are designed to work with motors that have medium to moderate starting loads. PR Model converters will work well on most motor applications except those that require longer than a three-second start-up time, such as a wheel balancer. PR models are also not recommended for motor applications requiring 100% of the motor rated HP continuously. This problem can be solved on many applications by simply reducing the motor pulley size by at least 20 to 30%.
