The VLT® Soft Starter MCD 600 combines the latest in advanced controls and protections with an increased level of intelligence for superior performance in fixed-speed applications.

The MCD 600 is more flexible than ever to install, thanks to a wide variety of Ethernet and serial-based communication option cards, application-dedicated smart cards and support for eight languages.

An integrated bypass ensures both extremely high efficiency and harmonic-free operation at full speed, reducing energy consumed and required cooling capacity. Ease of use is in focus with features such as the pump-clean function, PowerThrough operation, and calendar or run time-based scheduling. More extensive motor and starter protections ensure more uptime.

Mains voltage range

• 3 x 200-525 VAC (T5)
• 3 x 380-690 VAC (T7)

Current range and enclosure

• IP20: 20 – 129 A (Nominal)
• IP00: 144 – 1250 A (Nominal)

Features and benefits

• Inbuilt impeller cleaning assistance with Pump clean functionality
• Easy application analysis with up to 348 events logged, as well as QR code scan for serial number and event data
• Easy data access and reduced startup and upgrade time thanks to integrated USB port
• More reliability, more uptime with expanded motor and controller protections
• Flexibility for low speed applications, with Jog function
• Improved uptime with PowerThrough function which uses 2-phase control if one phase is damaged by shorted SCR
• Easy connectivity for the soft starter to Ethernet-based networks, such as PROFINET and EtherNet/IP
• Programming is quick and easy thanks to three menu systems (Quick Menu, Application Setup and Main Menu), a four-line graphical display and a logic keypad
• The best starting and stopping profile for the application is chosen using Adaptive Acceleration Control (AAC)
• Installation costs are lower and there is less stress on the motor thanks to DC injection braking distributed evenly over three phases
• Save space and reduce installation costs, thanks to the internal bypass contactors
• Good asset protection thanks to Emergency mode, which keeps the fan or pump running for as long as possible in an emergency
