• Resistance to mechanical shock and vibration enhances durability

• Ideal for in conveyor systems and pumps
• Used for soft starting large industrial motors and compressors
• Effective in reducing mechanical stress on equipment during start-up
• Suitable for branches and control circuits in various industrial setups

The internal bypass allows for smooth operation during run time by eliminating power loss across the soft starter, ensuring efficient energy use and reducing heat generation.

It features a degree of protection rated IP20, providing essential safeguarding against dust and contact with live parts, while also meeting robust industry standards such as CSA and UL.

Designed for high resilience, it maintains operation within a broad temperature range of -40 to +40°C, adapting to challenging environmental conditions while ensuring consistent performance.

By gradually increasing motor torque during start-up, it minimises abrupt mechanical strain, thus significantly extending the lifespan of both the motor and associated equipment.

A current rating of 135 A allows for the control of large three-phase motors, typically found in demanding industrial applications, ensuring they operate within safe and efficient parameters.
