ENVIRONMENTAL STABILITY
A layer of oil is floated on top of the electrolyte to form a seal which not only
minimises evaporation, but eliminates contamination from the atmosphere.
CLIMATIC CONDITIONS
Whether in the snow fields, or the desert regions of the outback, M350 starters
are operating almost maintenance free. Their only requirement is the need to
occasionally top them up with drinking water (pH = 7 to 9) every 12 months or so.
AVAILABILITY
For ratings up to 750 kW very quick deliveries can be achieved as all
components required for construction are available ex-stock.
M350 electrode assembly.
One of two or three used in an M350 starter.
M350 RATINGS
M350 starters are designed to meet the starting torque requirements of the application
and the starting duty (starting time and starts per hour) specified by the user. The ratings
given to M350 starters are therefore variable and application dependant.

Notes:

One start per hour from hot for HLR4000 models.
Actual ratings will depend on start torque and run-up time required.
For higher starts per hour or for extended run-up times, a heat exchanger may be added.
Electrode movement and run-up time controlled by inbuilt variable speed drive.
FLT = Full Load Torque otherwise referred to as Motor Rated Torque.
Control of larger motors is possible. Contact NHP for selection assistance and advice.

2. Is the electrolyte prepared on-site
or is it supplied premixed in
drums?
The electrolyte is prepared on-site. The
Liquid Resistance Starter is first filled
to maximum with potable water. A
suitable container (~10 litres) is filled
with water electrolyte via the LRS drain
valve and approximately 1/2 kilogram
of the supplied Sodium Carbonate is
mixed into the container contents until
completely dissolved. The contents
of the container are then returned to
the LRS tank via the open lid, evenly
distributed with care to ensure that
the carriage linear bearings are not
splashed. This process is repeated until
the entire dose of Sodium Carbonate
delivered with the starter has been
added. During the first few actual start
cycles, most of the dissolved oxygen
will be driven out of the electrolyte.
At this stage a thin layer of oil (also
supplied with the starter) is then
floated on the electrolyte surface to
minimise evaporation.
3. If the electrolyte is prepared
on-site, are there any specific
requirements for chemical
characteristic and purity of potable
water?
Either plain potable (drinking) water
or, if not available, demineralised water
are suitable. Bore water should not be
used.
