Single Phase | SmoothStarters
Single Phase SmoothStarters
This product has been developed specifically to smooth start large single phase compressors and motors. It provides a dramatic reduction in the starting current while providing full start torque. It will automatically adjust itself to cover the range of 1.75 to 7 hp. It is fully self-contained in a conveniently small, double insulated and flame retardant enclosure.
Compatible with both inverter and generator-based systems. For generators, it allows downsizing from 24kW to 18kW, resulting in significant cost savings of thousands of dollars.
SmoothStarter is UL, CE and RoHS compliant.
