Key Features

108A Three-Phase Motor Starting

The Allen-Bradley SMC-3 150-C108NBD provides a 108 A controller rating for compatible three-phase induction motors. The documented line-connected motor current range is 27-108 A at 380/400/415/460 VAC, with motor ratings of 50-75 HP at 460 VAC.

100-240VAC Control Supply

The controller operates with a 100-240 VAC control supply and a nominal 480 VAC three-phase power circuit. This configuration is intended for compatible industrial motor control systems and differs from the 24 V AC/DC control version.

Integrated Bypass Technology

The internal bypass reduces thyristor conduction losses after the motor reaches its operating condition. The manufacturer specifies 62 W steady-state heat dissipation for this model.

Adjustable Starting and Soft Stopping

Selectable current limits of 150-450% of motor full-load current, start times from 2 to 30 seconds, adjustable initial torque and configurable soft stopping help adapt motor acceleration and deceleration to compatible mechanical loads.

Integrated Motor Overload Protection

Electronic motor overload protection includes selectable Class 10, 15 and 20 trip characteristics. A normally open overload/fault auxiliary contact supports compatible monitoring and control circuits.

Industrial Panel Integration

The open-type IP2X controller measures 443.7 × 196.4 × 205.2 mm and weighs 15 kg. It supports line-connected and inside-delta motor installations when correctly selected and wired.

Applications

  • Industrial three-phase induction motor soft starting
  • Heavy-duty conveyor and material handling systems
  • Centrifugal pump motor starting and stopping
  • Industrial ventilation fan and blower equipment
  • Manufacturing and production line motor control
  • Motor control cabinets using 100-240VAC control circuits
  • Industrial processing machinery requiring controlled motor acceleration
  • Maintenance and replacement of compatible SMC-3 motor controllers

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Allen-Bradley 150-C108NBD?
Allen-Bradley 150-C108NBD is a Bulletin 150-C SMC-3 solid-state smart motor controller rated at 108 A, designed for compatible three-phase induction motors with a nominal 480 VAC main power circuit and 100-240 VAC control supply.


What is the rated current of 150-C108NBD?
The controller has a 108 A current rating. Rockwell Automation specifies a line-connected motor current range of 27-108 A for supported 380/400/415/460 VAC applications.


What control voltage does 150-C108NBD require?
This model uses 100-240 VAC control power. The manufacturer's specified control current during starting with the fan operating is 200 mA at 120 VAC or 120 mA at 240 VAC.


What is the difference between 150-C108NBD and 150-C108NBR?
The 150-C108NBD uses a 100-240 VAC control supply, while the 150-C108NBR uses 24 V AC/DC control power. These configurations must not be interchanged without checking the control supply and fan power requirements.


What motor horsepower range does 150-C108NBD support?
Manufacturer selection data identifies a 50-75 HP range for line-connected motors at 460 VAC. Motor full-load current, starting duty and installation requirements must also be considered.


Does 150-C108NBD support inside-delta motor connections?
Yes. Rockwell Automation specifies an inside-delta motor current range of 47-187 A for compatible 380/400/415/460 VAC installations. Wiring and protective device selection must follow the installation instructions.


Does 150-C108NBD include an internal bypass?
Yes. The controller includes an integrated bypass to reduce power losses and heat generation during the applicable full-speed motor running condition.


What starting current limits are available?
The selectable current limits are 150%, 250%, 350% and 450% of motor full-load current. The controller also provides configurable starting times, initial torque and kick-start settings.


Does 150-C108NBD include electronic motor overload protection?
Yes. Integrated motor overload protection supports Class 10, 15 and 20 trip settings. The selected protection settings must be appropriate for the connected motor and operating duty.


Can 150-C108NBD perform soft stopping?
Yes. Soft stopping can be disabled or configured to 100%, 200% or 300% of the selected starting time when the starter is properly wired and configured.


Does 150-C108NBD have an integrated display or fault contact?
The controller does not include an integrated display. It provides one normally open overload/fault auxiliary contact at terminals 97-98, with operational ratings of 0.6 A at 120 VAC or 0.3 A at 240 VAC.


What should be checked before ordering 150-C108NBD?
Verify the exact catalog number 150-C108NBD, 108 A controller rating, nominal 480 VAC three-phase main supply, 100-240 VAC control voltage, motor full-load current, line or inside-delta wiring, overload trip class, starting duty, fan power requirements, fault contact connections, protective devices, IP2X construction and 443.7 × 196.4 × 205.2 mm installation dimensions.
