DANGER
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE.
Disconnect all power before working on equipment.
Electrical shock will cause severe injury or death.
Series B only applies to the Type S Starter Form B (ambient compensated
overload relay block). All parts of Form B Series A and B starters are
interchangeable, only the overload relay block differs. If the overload relay block
of a Form B Series A starter is replaced with the Series B block, the overload
relay thermal units must be selected from the Series B thermal unit selection
tables for proper motor protection.
All contactors are supplied with a normally-open holding circuit contact as
standard. Additional normally-open or normally-closed auxiliary contacts can be
installed in the field. Refer to Table 5 for class and type. For application
information, refer to Instruction Bulletin 9999-287 or the Square D Digest.
NEMA 1 general purpose enclosures with slip-on or hinged covers are supplied
with knockouts for field addition of the kits listed in Table 1
