Soft starters and AC motors are used together to reduce load and torque during start-up, unlike with discrete contactor switching. Soft starters provide lower energy use and help minimize weathering on motors and other connected equipment. Altistart 48 starters are used in unison with power rated devices from 4 kW to 900 kW. The 48 series is used with 3-phase asynchronous motors for industry and pump applications. Some of the benefits that the heavy duty soft starter offers:

• Complete thermal protection for the motor
• Simple software for immediate set up
• The Torque Control System for minimal wiring and excellent communication and integration
