Components:
1. Power Supply (F, N):
- F (Phase): The live wire that provides electrical power to the circuit.
- N (Neutral): The return wire that completes the circuit back to the power source.
2. Guardamotor (Motor Protection Switch):
- This device is designed to protect the motor from overload and short circuit conditions. It monitors the motor's current and disconnects it from the power supply if it detects an anomaly.
3. Start and Stop Buttons:
- Start Button (Green): When pressed, this button allows current to flow to the motor, initiating its operation.
- Stop Button (Red): This button interrupts the current flow, stopping the motor when pressed.
4. Motor:
- The motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy, performing work such as turning a pump, fan, or conveyor.
Functionality:
- When the Start button is pressed, it closes the circuit, allowing current to flow from the power supply through the Guardamotor to the motor, which then starts.
- If the Stop button is pressed, it opens the circuit, cutting off power to the motor and stopping its operation.
- The Guardamotor continuously monitors the motor's condition. If the current exceeds safe limits, it will trip, disconnecting the motor to prevent damage.
Summary:
This circuit is designed to safely control and protect a motor, ensuring it operates efficiently while minimizing the risk of electrical faults.
