£41.28
The Chint NQ3-5.5P/230 is a compact and robust direct-on-line motor starter designed for reliable starting and stopping of three-phase induction motors in industrial and commercial applications. As part of the Chint NQ3 electromagnetic starter series, it provides a practical enclosed solution for direct motor control where simple, dependable full-voltage starting is required.
This DOL starter combines a durable metal base with a protective plastic cover, offering an IP55 enclosure suitable for panel, workshop and machinery installations. The integrated start and stop pushbuttons provide straightforward local motor control, while the compact design makes it suitable for use where installation space is limited.
With a motor power rating of 5.5 kW, a 12 A maximum current rating and a 230 V AC control coil, the Chint NQ3-5.5P/230 is ideal for pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors and other three-phase motor applications requiring reliable direct-on-line starting.
Direct-on-line starters apply full supply voltage directly to the motor during starting, making them a simple and effective choice for applications where the supply network and driven load can tolerate direct starting current. This makes the Chint NQ3-5.5P/230 suitable for many general-purpose motor control duties.
The enclosed design helps protect the starter components in industrial environments, while the start and stop controls allow convenient local operation. For installations requiring motor overload protection, a correctly selected overload relay should be used in line with the motor full load current and application requirements.
