®
FTA1350 Wye-Delta, Closed Transition Starting Fire Pump Controllers
are used with delta-wound squirrel cage motors. FTA1350 con­trollers are of the closed circuit transition type in which the motor circuit remains closed during the transition from start to run. The controller monitors, displays and records fire pump system information. Actuating the controller by the pressure switch, START pushbutton or deluge valve contact closes the start contactor connecting the motor to the line in the wye connection. The motor will draw approximately 33% of its normal inrush current and develop approximately 33% of its normal starting torque. After a time delay, the motor is automatically reconnected in delta, ap­plying full voltage to the motor windings. During this transition, a resistor is connected to each phase, mini­mizing line disturbances and voltage drop during start­ing. These controllers are recommended especially for use with generator sets.
