Eaton AE17FNS0AFT Open Type Motor Starter Assembly

The Eaton AE17FNS0AFT NSB series open type motor starter functions as a heavy-duty switching element for controlling three-phase induction motors within industrial electrical systems. Engineered with a nominal current capacity of 32 amperes across both 50 and 60 hertz supply frequencies, this assembly features three main power poles alongside a single normally open auxiliary contact for signaling purposes. Operation requires a control coil voltage source ranging from 110 to 120 volts AC, allowing integration into diverse facility power distribution panels where space efficiency is prioritized over contained housing. Technicians typically install this open configuration component inside existing switchboards or enclosures, connecting it to separate overload relays and fusing arrangements to create a compliant and protective motor circuit environment. This design suits standard automation requirements where discrete switching and reliable actuation drive equipment like pumps and fans in commercial infrastructure.
