Softstarter is a full-speed starter that accelerates, decelerates and protects three phase motors. The softstarter controls the voltage applied to the motor by using thyristors which gives it control over current, torque and acceleration. The softstarter’s parameters can be configured to match the application’s requirements, so that the required current and torque are optimized.
Advantages of soft starters;
- Energy cost reduction for pump system
- Adjustable acceleration time
- Easy adjustment of start performance to süit the specific motor and load.
