The **8536SHO2V06** is a specific model of a NEMA-rated magnetic motor starter manufactured by **Schneider Electric (Square D)**. It is part of the Type S series, designed for the induction of AC motors across various industrial applications. --- ## 1. Technical Specifications Below are the primary electronic and physical specifications for the 8536SHO2V06: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Schneider Electric (Square D) | | **Product Type** | Magnetic Motor Starter | | **NEMA Size** | Size 6 | | **Pole Configuration** | 3-Pole (3P) | | **Voltage Rating** | 600V AC (Maximum) | | **Continuous Current** | 540 Amperes | | **Coil Voltage** | 440V AC @ 50Hz / 480V AC @ 60Hz | | **Overload Type** | Melting Alloy (standard) | | **Enclosure Type** | Open (No NEMA 1/3R/4/12 box included) | --- ## 2. Key Electronic Components The 8536SHO2V06 functions through the coordination of three main sub-assemblies: ### A. The Electromagnetic Coil (V06) The suffix **V06** specifically denotes the control voltage of the internal solenoid coil. - **Input:** 480V AC (60Hz) or 440V AC (50Hz). - **Function:** When energized, it creates a magnetic field that pulls the main contacts closed, allowing high-current power to flow to the motor. ### B. Power Contacts The starter utilizes heavy-duty copper alloy contacts designed to handle the **540A** continuous current rating of a NEMA Size 6 frame. - These contacts are replaceable and are engineered to minimize arcing during high-load switching. ### C. Overload Protection While the basic unit is designed for **Melting Alloy** thermal units, modern variations can be fitted with Solid-State Overload Relays (SSOLRs). - **Thermal Units:** These must be sized separately based on the Motor Full Load Amps (FLA). - **Function:** They detect excessive current draw (heat) and mechanically trip the starter to prevent the motor windings from burning out. --- ## 3. Horsepower (HP) Ratings The electronic capacity of this starter varies based on the operational voltage of the motor being driven: | Voltage | Max Horsepower (HP) | | :--- | :--- | | **200V AC** | 150 HP | | **230V AC** | 200 HP | | **460V AC** | 400 HP | | **575V AC** | 400 HP | --- ## 4. Wiring and Terminal Connections The starter utilizes large-scale terminal lugs to accommodate the heavy-gauge cabling required for 540A service. - **L1, L2, L3:** Line side power input. - **T1, T2, T3:** Load side output to the motor. - **Holding Circuit:** Typically includes an auxiliary contact (normally open) to allow for momentary push-button control (Start/Stop).
