The Applications


1. Smart Conveyor Systems in Packaging Lines

Modern packaging plants need conveyor belts that frequently switch direction when products are rerouted or sorted. The ELR H5-ES-SC 24DC/500AC-2 hybrid motor starter makes this possible with its integrated reversing function. Operators gain a safer process through the emergency stop feature, while hybrid switching reduces wear on the motor during constant direction changes. Its compact size means control cabinets stay uncluttered even when multiple conveyors are running side by side.

2. Ventilation and Exhaust Control in Large Facilities

In industrial buildings, fans and exhaust systems must operate reliably for both air circulation and emergency smoke extraction. By using the ELR H5-ES-SC 24DC/500AC-2, engineers ensure stable fan startup and protection against overloads without bulky external devices. The integrated safety stop gives maintenance teams confidence when working in sensitive areas. Its ability to tolerate wide temperature ranges makes it ideal for HVAC rooms where conditions are less controlled.

3. Pumping Applications in Water and Chemical Plants

Pumps used in treatment plants or chemical processes often need reversing cycles for cleaning or back-flushing tasks. The ELR H5-ES-SC 24DC/500AC-2 simplifies this by combining motor protection, reversing, and safe shutdown in one slim module. This reduces wiring time and eliminates the need for multiple separate devices. With hybrid switching, pumps operate smoothly and with less downtime. The integrated safety levels also prevent damage when motors face unexpected blockages or dry-run conditions.

4. Hoist and Crane Drive Systems

Cranes and hoists operate under tough conditions and require dependable reversing control to handle lifting and lowering loads. The ELR H5-ES-SC 24DC/500AC-2 provides fast direction switching, built-in overload protection, and emergency stop functionality to keep operations safe. Its compact width fits easily into crane-mounted cabinets, where space and weight are critical. With low-wear switching, the device ensures longer service intervals, making it especially valuable in applications with frequent start-stop cycles.
