It’s part of the CR306 series, built as a NEMA Size 0, 3-pole starter with a 240V AC coil, and it’s typically installed inside a panel or enclosure as part of a complete motor control setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn practice, this is the kind of starter you’ll find running HVAC systems, pumps, compressors, conveyors, and general industrial equipment. It’s designed for full-voltage starting, so when the coil is energized, the motor gets full power right away. When it drops out, the motor shuts down cleanly. Nothing complicated—just standard motor control that’s been used for years because it works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince this is an open-style unit, it gives installers flexibility to mount it inside existing control panels or enclosures. It’s also a familiar layout for anyone who works regularly with CR306 components, which helps a lot when you’re replacing parts or working under time pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Size 0 frame keeps it compact enough for tighter spaces, while still handling light industrial motor loads. The 240V coil is a common control voltage in commercial and industrial systems, so it tends to drop into existing setups without much adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the end of the day, this is the type of motor starter most people don’t think about once it’s installed—it just does its job in the background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features and Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCR306 series magnetic motor starter (Size 0)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-pole design for standard three-phase motor control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e240V AC coil for common industrial control circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull-voltage (across-the-line) motor starting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen-type construction for flexible installation in panels or enclosures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact footprint for space-limited control cabinets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFamiliar CR306 design for easier replacement work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommonly used in OEM equipment and field maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimple operation with minimal troubleshooting needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCatalog Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e CR306B003\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Magnetic Motor Starter (Open Type)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e CR306\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e NEMA Size 0\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Poles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3P\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoil Voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240V AC\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Open (panel\/enclosure mounted)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Control Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full-voltage magnetic starter\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.71 in W x 3.75 in H x 7 in D\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.75 lb\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication:\u003c\/strong\u003e Motor starting and control\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Compliance and Certifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CR306B003 is built for industrial motor control use and meets standard compliance requirements for electrical equipment in commercial and industrial environments.
