Product Description
Technical Data
Applications
Our Soft Starter Panels deliver controlled, seamless acceleration—extending equipment life, ensuring reliability. Protect your drive, empower your process.
Principle & Operation
Utilizes solid-state thyristors to gradually ramp up the voltage supplied to the motor, providing a controlled, smooth acceleration. Unlike Direct-On-Line (DOL) starters that apply full voltage instantly, soft starters use solid-state electronics to manage the starting process, significantly reducing mechanical stress, electrical inrush current, and system disturbances.
Key Characteristics:
Typical Application: The preferred solution for medium to large motors driving centrifugal pumps, ventilation fans, compressors, and other applications demanding smooth starts/stops and reduced mechanical stress.
Engineered for Every Start: From the Rugged Simplicity of DOL, to the Smooth Intelligence of Soft Start, to the Efficient Reliability of Star-Delta – Your Complete Motor Control Solution, Built for Industry.
Choosing between DOL, soft starter, and star-delta electrical control panels?
Our complete motor control solutions include all three technologies. The DOL panel excels in cost-effectiveness for small motors, while soft starters provide smooth acceleration and star-delta starters offer balanced performance for medium-power applications.
Selection Guidance
Each panel type employs a distinct methodology to manage the critical start-up phase of three-phase induction motors, balancing performance, cost, and system protection.
