What is it about?
The developed system assures the proper operation of the controlled machines. The existence of a PLC with touch panel and a PC connected to the Sentron PAC3200 allows for simultaneous drive monitoring and control.

Why is it important?
Any failure can be immediately discovered and the reliability of the drive system has been increased. The energy consumption can be optimized through the proper setup of the soft starter for each particular application. Many other drives can be also connected to the PLC and a common control system would be realized.
Perspectives
If such a system is involved in electric vehicles for remote monitoring and control on auxiliary machines, the energy efficiency and the reliability will increase. The starting current will be reduced and the power factor and THD could be optimized in comparison with the direct connection of the motor to the grid. The optimal setting of the soft starter for each particular case must be done in advance. Thanks to the opportunity of real time monitoring of the drive performance any failure or damage can be immediately discovered and the motor can be instantly switched off from a distance by the operator in the control center
