Contactor to DOL starter & switches
Former Community Member
I have a DOL starter (https://docs.rs-online.com/c08c/0900766b81586106.pdf for reference) that I want to connect to my ac motor. I understand that the dol starter has a built-in contactor. I want to connect two other switches, a tilt and a proximity switch. Is it possible to connect these two switches to this DOL? If not how would I go about this?
My aim with the two additions switches is that, if either the proximity or tilt detects an object close by or detects a tilt, then it would turn off the motor. That's my idea. I'm not sure if it is possible, but I thought I would ask. This is a small project I'm undertaking so the motor isn't really doing anything useful.
