Square D 8538SBG12V02S Combination Starter 3 Pole 600 Vac

Product Description

The SQUARE D 8538SBG12V02S is a three-pole, enclosed NEMA combination starter rated for 600 VAC and 18 continuous amps, designed for non-reversing motor control applications up to 3 hp. It combines a motor starter and short circuit protection in a single NEMA 1 enclosure, reducing panel space and simplifying wiring. The unit provides 30-amp short circuit protection and is RoHS compliant. Licensed electricians and industrial maintenance technicians install this starter in commercial and light industrial motor control circuits where a factory-integrated, code-ready assembly is required.

This combination starter is suited for three-phase motor loads in commercial HVAC equipment, pumping systems, conveyor drives, and similar motor-driven applications operating at voltages up to 600 VAC. The non-reversing configuration covers the majority of standard across-the-line motor starting scenarios. The NEMA 1 enclosure is appropriate for indoor installations in clean, dry environments. It ships as a single unit and is intended as a direct replacement or new installation component where a NEMA-rated enclosed combination starter is specified.

Key Features

• 18 continuous amp rating supports three-phase motors up to 3 hp at 600 VAC
• 30-amp short circuit protection integrated into the combination starter assembly
• Three-pole, non-reversing design for standard across-the-line motor starting
• NEMA 1 enclosed construction for indoor, clean-environment installations
• RoHS compliant construction
• Single-unit assembly reduces field wiring time versus separately mounted components

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style enclosed NEMA combination starter for three-phase motor control applications rated up to 600 VAC and 3 hp in commercial and light industrial systems.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. Disconnect and lock out all power to the circuit before mounting or wiring the starter. Verify motor full-load amperage against the starter rating before connecting. The NEMA 1 enclosure is not rated for wet, corrosive, or outdoor locations.
