The majority of applications for Portec equipment do not require acceleration / deceleration devices. They should only be included as part of a drive package when any of the following conditions exist: 5 hp motor or higher; 350+ fpm at centerline; 10+ start/stop cycles per minute.
You can read more about acceleration/deceleration devices by downloading this Tech Bulletin #1210.
