Saftronics Soft Starters have been providing precise controlled AC motor starting and stopping for decades. We pioneered this motor control technology to limit the current to a motor on both acceleration and deceleration to provide a longer life to both motor and machinery.

Emerson offers a complete range of low-voltage AC motor soft starters suitable for both normal and heavy duty applications., plus packaged models such as our “Crusher-Duty” soft starters. Our soft starters feature a universal voltage input which can accommodate 200 – 600VAC 3Ø input supply.  Modbus, Profibus, DeviceNet, RS-485, LonWorks and FIPIO options are available.

Soft Starters

 

Soft starting extends the current waveform over the start time, which allows the user to limit the current level to what is required to start the load.

 
 
CSX CSXiOur CSX/CSXi series has one of the smallest foot prints available, and includes a built-in bypass contactor, resulting in significant space savings; ideal for MCC applications.
 
IMS2The IMS2 series offers a total motor starting solution for higher horsepower range , combining high level functionality with flexibility and ease of use. 

 

 
EMX3 Soft StarterThe EMX3 series utilizes the latest technology in soft starters, including new adaptive accelleration technology for the ultimate in control.
