The 150-F201FAD is a smart motor controller that belongs to the SMC Flex series and it has been manufactured and designed by Allen-Bradley to start three-phase squirrel cage induction and other motors such as wye-delta motors. Each controller from this series features various standard modes of operation. Specifically, there are 7 operating modes, including a built-in SCR bypass and an LCD with keypad programming and programmable auxiliary contacts. This controller includes an additional option which is braking control. The Allen-Bradley 150-F201FAD smart motor controller operates with a controller rating of 201 Amps and 150 Horsepower at a voltage of 460 Volts AC. It also has a three-phase input line voltage of 230 Volts AC with a frequency of 50 and 60 Hertz.

The Allen-Bradley 150-F201FAD smart motor controller features a NEMA Type 4/12 enclosure (equivalent to an IP65 enclosure), which covers the controller while protecting it from external particles that could affect its performance. The Allen-Bradley 150-F201FAD smart motor controller has standard features such as starting and stopping modes, protection and diagnosis modes, metering, alarm contact, status indication, and auxiliary contacts. At the same time, it offers short-circuit protection and resistance to shock and vibration. When it comes to design, the power poles of the Allen-Bradley 150-F201FAD smart motor controller are constructed in a heatsink thyristor modular design, the power poles in a heatsink hockey puck thyristor module design. Whereas the control modules are manufactured in a thermoset and thermoplastic moldings and the metal parts are made of copper, painted steel, and plated brass. This controller can withstand a temperature range of -5 to 40 degrees Celsius, an altitude of 2,000 meters, and it has a Level 2 pollution degree.
