The 3RV10 MSPs can be used in a variety of applications: As a manual starter All 3RV MSPs are UL listed as Manual Motor Controllers per UL508. This makes them ideal for applications requiring simple manual starting and stopping of motors. A separate short circuit protective device, such as a circuit breaker or fuses, is still required ahead of the MSP. This up-stream protective device should be sized per NEC code, not to exceed 400% of the maximum FLA adjustment dial setting. As a component in a group installation A group motor installation indicates multiple motor controllers under one short circuit protective device, such as a circuit breaker. 3RV MSPs have a group installation short-circuit current rating of 65 kA at 480V and up to 30kA at 600V. By using a link module, a 3RT contactor can be directly mounted to the load side of the MSP. 3RV MSPs have been UL tested with and without 3RT contactors for group installation. As a Self-protected manual combination starter, Type E. Most 3RV MSPs have also been UL listed as UL508 Type E, Selfprotected Manual Combination Starters. This UL listing allows the MSP to be mounted in a manually operated machine without having to add separate short circuit protection upstream. These devices have a short circuit current rating of 65 kA @ 240V, 480Y/277V and up to 30kA @ 600Y/347V. As part of a Combination Motor Contoller, Type F When a 3RT contactor is connected to the load side of a 3RV device that is rated as a "Manual Self-protected Combination Motor Controller, Type E", the assembly can be applied as a "Combination Motor Controller, Type F". This versions allows for remote starting and stopping of the motor load. These assemblies have a short circuit current rating of 65 kA @ 240V, 480Y/277V and up to 30 kA @ 600Y/347V. As a circuit breaker for export When exporting to many countries outside of the U.S. and North America, the 3RV can be applied as a thermal magnetic circuit breaker for use in motor branch circuits.

Terminals for "Combination Motor Controller Type E" to UL 508 The 3RV10 MSP for motor protection is approved according to UL 508 as "Combination Motor Controller Type E". As of July, 2001, UL 508 demands at line-side of the device used for this purpose an increased clearance and creepage distance (1" or 2"). Here, the terminal block 3RV19 28-1H must be used for size S0. The block is simply screwed to the basic unit. Basic units of size S2 are already compliant with new clearance and creepage distance requirements. The terminal block 3RT19 464GA07 must be used for size S3. The standard box terminal is to be replaced by this terminal block. According to CSA, these terminal blocks can be omitted when the device is used as "Combination Motor Controller Type E". By using a link module, a 3RT10 contactor can be directly mounted to the load side of a 3RV MSP. This assembly of a 3RV and a 3RT provides a complete, remotely operated, combination starter, Type F.
