PQSI Coil-Lock Applications
2
1Coil-Locks Eliminate Weak Links …
Coil-Locks Eliminate Costly Equipment Shutdown …
Relays, contactors, and motor starters are used extensively in commercial and industrial facilities to control business machines and process equipment. These devices often have a low tolerance to electric service voltage sags, and are frequently diagnosed as “weak links” in automated production lines.
During common voltage sags, the solenoid coils in these motor-driven systems may de-energize long enough to cause the power circuit mechanical contacts to open (chatter), and the connected electrical equipment to shutdown. The Coil-Lock eliminates costly process shutdown, installs in minutes, and can be a cost-effective alternative to other voltage sag protection methods.
3Coil-Locks Eliminate Disruption of Operations …
This situation can impact an entire manufacturing facility The Coil-Lock is available in different models to be compatible with most solenoid operated relays and contactors, and is ideal for protecting master control relays, and E-stop circuits.
