Any input on Cutler-Hammer Starter?

, x, E( \8 _: WTwo  cutler –hammer advantage  starters are  doing the same thing:
6 j8 [. S6 V4 ~6 e" Q. y  a# e$ b After start 2-3 times, they will quit working, if you toggle the  start and stop buttons on DCS screen  , you will get another 2-3 running before they quit working again.

9 ^- K$ n% e9 O1 YWe isolate the network control and use the local start and stop only, the problem remains.
Swap one of the defective buckets with a good one, the new bucket works fine.
The problem should be inside the bucket.

When the problem happened, we observed that  the contactor has a pulling action but will not seal.
& b2 M* L6 Z6 uUse a terminating screw divers to push in the contactor, it will not seal either.
# [. q% P& t1 ]5 Z5 L" K; y0 lConfirm with TECH support this should be a problem with the control circuit board inside the advantage starter, we  bought two new control circuit boards and replaced the old ones, the problem is still the same.
+ u- Y9 P" F. j' a! ?# H
The next thing we can think of  is the coil, we took the coil out to have a close look.
They  have a fork to pinch inside the two leads to make connection, it is not a good design at all. We soldered  the connection and tried again.
It is getting better  this time, we have 7-8 times of running before it quit working.

The coil should be the problem, we ordered two of them. But it will take 5-6 weeks for us to get them.

有时候主接触点太脏，也会造成启动器无法正常工作

Don't know cutler –hammer advantage  starters very well, but had been worked on AB switch gears for a little while, which has two different coils, one to pull the vacum bottles up which employs larger current, another one uses less current to hold the connection---if the second coil fails, it won't be able to seal the connection.

检查过触点没问题。
