The timer is used to give the motor time to reach its running speed at the star voltage. Once the timer times out the star contactor drops out and the delta contactor pulls in.

What is the advantage of a Star Delta Motor Starter?
The inrush current to the starting motor is lower due to the the motor coils being in series across the line creating a higher impeadence. When the starter connects to delta connection the motor is already turning and it does not have to go through the locked rotor phase. This system is being phased out now with the use of electronic soft starts and by-pass contactors.To start a motor direct on line (DOL) in delta requires approximately 6 to 8 times the full load current of the motor and delivers full torque. Delta places 415v across each of the windings on the motor. A Star-Delta starter starts the motor in Star which places 240v across each winding on the motor. This results in a lower starting current and also a lower starting torque.
How can you include phase failure relay in your star delta motor starter circuit?
The star delta motor starter circuit has to have a control voltage to energize the motor magnetic contractors. A phase failure relay monitors all three phases of the incoming supply lines. The phase failure relay also has auxiliary contacts on it. There are usually two sets of "C" form contacts. The control voltage for the starter circuit must be connected across the normally open (N.O.) contacts of one of these two sets. When the phase monitor is energized these N.O. contacts close supplying the control voltage to the circuitry of the star delta starters. If there is a phase interruption, phase reversal or phase loss, the phase failure relay will de-energize and the N.O. contacts will go back to their de-energized state. If the star delta motor starter is in use at the time, its control circuitry voltage will be lost and the delta motor magnetic contactor will open. The opening of this contactor will disconnect the motor from the failed three phase supply.

How do you wire a star delta motor?
This answer has been temporarily closed to changesbecause so many askers have been repeatedly splitting-off variants of the question such as "Can you give me simple diagram for star-delta starter".Please note: diagrams cannot be included in answers.The answer given includes plenty of details for anyone to be able produce a simple diagram showing how a 3-phase motor can be wired in star and delta configurations.AnswerTo be able to wire a 3-phase motor either in star or delta, all 6 ends of the three sets of coils, called "windings", have to be exposed with suitable connection terminals.The windings are often labelled A1, A2, A3 and B1, B2, B3, where "1", "2" and "3" denote the separate phase windings and "A" and "B" denote the beginning and end of each winding.Another way of describing it is to say that the separate windings can be labelled:Winding 1: A1 B1. Winding 2: A2 B2, Winding 3: A3 B3.In star configuration either all the A's or all the B's are connected together and the 3-phase supply (consisting of three separate "phase lines" labelled L1, L2, L3) is connected to the remaining three connectors. For example, if you connect B1 to B2 and B2 to B3 to form the center of the "star" then you must connect supply L1 to A1; supply L2 to A2 and supply L3 to A3.In delta configuration, connect B1 to A2, B2 to A3, B3 to A1. (If you draw that out as a schematic diagram, it will be a triangle.) Then connect supply L1 to A1; supply L2 to A2 and supply L3 to A3. (Exactly the same as the supply lines were connected before, for the star configuration.)The initial making of those connections in "star" - and subsequent changing into "delta" after the motor has built-up sufficient speed - would all normally be handled by a "star-delta motor starter" unit. A good tip: before you ever start hooking one up, study its schematic wiring diagram carefully to be sure you really understand which of its terminals connect to which motor terminals, and where to connect each line of the 3-phase service cable.Note:Some 3-phase motors use an alternative way of labelling the windings: 1A, 1B, 1C and 2A, 2B, 2C.Electronic motor-control systems, which offer soft-starts in DELTA configuration, are now replacing the use of manual or semi-automatic star-delta starters.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
How do you turn off the timer in Lego star wars?
I don't think you can. If you can it's probably in he options menu(settings) or maybe a cheat code. ;-)
When star-delta starter timer will disconnnect?
its is very simple whem motor shifted on delta then timer will disconnect
Does a star delta timer rely on the breaking of the retaining contacts on the star contactor side?
The N.C. (timed open) contacts in the star delta timer energize the star contactor's coil when the system is energized. At the same instant the system is energized, the timer starts to time down the required time which lets the motor get up to speed in the star configuration. When the timer reaches the set point time, a second set of N.O. (timed closed) contacts close the delta contactor's coil and open the N.C. timed contacts of star contactor's coil. The motor now runs in the delta configuration. When the system is de energized the timer contact's reset to its de energized state.
Why timer can be used in star delta starter?
delay timer
What size fuse required for 11kw motor star delta starting?
This depends on the motor rating.
What happens when timer inside star delta becomes faulty?
It depends upon the type of fault and type of timer,whether electronic, motorised or pneumatic. For some faults the motor just runs in star or when switching on it just jumps into delta while for other faults nothing changes i.e. when its motor is burnt that is for motorised timer or its card is burnt that is for electronic type.
What will happen if induction motor is in star-star connected?
If a motor is connected in a star configuration it will operate at a slower speed. This is the working process that a star delta starter operates on. At first through the starter the motor starts in the star connection. When the motor gets up to its highest speed in that connection it times a timer out , the star starter drops out and the delta starter pulls in and then connects the motor in the delta connection. This allows more voltage to be applied to the motor and it then speeds up to its nameplate rated RPM.
What is a timer in a star delta starter?
A timer in star delta starter for a three phase motor is an electronic device designed to do the change over or transition from star connection - using which the motor suns on a reduced voltage and current and produces less torque - to the delta connection necessary for running the motor at its full power, using high voltage and current to produce a high torque. The timing interval that is set is dependent how long the motor needs to start up from standstill to normal speed. Some motors require 15 seconds for the initial startup in star connection and after that given value of time the timer signals to the star contactor to go to the open position and the main delta contactor to go to the closed position, thus forming the delta circuit.
What size contactor required for 110kw 415v star delta start motor?
240 or 415
Why is the automatic star to delta starter tripping?
The only thing that will trip the starter, is the load of the motor. Check the motor leads to make sure you have not crossed them over coming from the motor junction box. If the motor current is normal nameplate full load amps when run across the line then reduce the timing of the timer on the switch over from star to delta.
How do star and delta configured three phase induction motors perform differently?
Star Delta starter control wiring ensures that initially the Motor winding is connected in Star and after set timer (few seconds) the winding gets connected in Delta automatically. There three power contactors and timers to make it happen.
How do you change star to delta?
In motor starters, this is usually done using contactors. Explanation of this can easily be done using a circuit diagram. There are three contactors, the main, star and delta contactors-all these contactors can be the same type. There are many ways of wiring a star delta but here I will only give a generalized answer. First, the main contactor and star contactors are energised thus the motor runs in star. After about 5 seconds, the timer which gets energized at the same time as the main and star contactors, switches its CONTACTS i.e the normally open closes and the normally close opens. This dienergize the star contactor and energized the delta contactor. Thus, the motor now runs in delta.
