150-B180NBDB-8L

The 150-B180NBDB-8L is a solid-state SMC dialog controller. It is manufactured by Allen-Bradley, a division of Rockwell Automation. The 150-B180NBDB-8L is classified as an SMC solid-state controller. The 150-B180NBDB-8L comes with a controller voltage of 100 to 240 Volts AC and it features a line-mounted protective module. The 150-B180NBDB-8L has the heatsink fan power requirement and it comes with control option for pump control. The 150-B180NBDB-8L features an input line voltage of 200 to 460 Volts AC. It is also a 3-phase solid-state smart motor controller that comes with a frequency rating of 50 and 60 Hertz. The module features the open type of enclosure and it has a maximum voltage of 460 Volts AC.

The Horsepower for the 150-B180NBDB-8L is 5 to 150 Horsepower while the solid-state controller comes with an amperage rating of 180 Amps. The 150-B180NBDB-8L comes with an overload protection feature. However, the overload protection feature on the SMC dialog plus controller comes disabled by default. Therefore, the users are required to program the desired overload trip class and the motor’s full load current rating so as to achieve the proper level of protection. In addition, it is important that the overload protection feature be properly coordinated with the motor. The 150-B180NBDB-8L comes with the slow speed operation mode, also referred to as the braking operation mode. During the braking operating mode or the slow speed mode, the current waveforms will exhibit non-sinusoidal characteristics. These inhibit the controller’s current measurement capacity. To ensure compensation for additional motor heating, the controller should use the motor’s thermal modeling to increment the motor thermal usage.
