SCHNEIDER 140CRP96200 Soft Starters

Schneider Electric is a global leader in motor control, and their soft starter lineup—primarily branded under the Altistart range (ATS01, ATS22, ATS480)—is designed to reduce the mechanical and electrical stress on motors during startup and stopping.

Product Detailed Description

Schneider Soft Starters are static starters that act as torque limiters. By controlling the voltage supplied to the motor via internal thyristors, they allow for a smooth, gradual increase in speed. This prevents the “water hammer” effect in pumps and reduces the high inrush current (typically $6 text{ to } 7 times I_n$) associated with Direct-On-Line (DOL) starting.

Main Product Series:

• Altistart 01 (ATS01): Compact, for simple machines (up to 15 kW).

• Altistart 22 (ATS22): Mid-range with integrated bypass, for standard commercial/industrial pumps and fans (up to 315 kW).

• Altistart 480 (ATS480): High-performance, heavy-duty range with advanced cybersecurity and digital features, replacing the legendary ATS48.

Technical Parameters (Typical)

Key Product Advantages

• Mechanical Longevity: Eliminates sudden torque peaks, significantly extending the life of belts, gears, couplings, and bearings.

• Energy Efficiency: Integrated bypass contactors reduce heat dissipation and energy loss once the motor reaches full speed.

• Advanced Thermal Protection: Built-in motor thermal monitoring (Electronic Overload) eliminates the need for external protection relays.

• TCS (Torque Control System): Schneider’s patented algorithm provides constant acceleration/deceleration regardless of the load, which is superior to simple voltage-ramp starters.

• Digital Integration: The newer ATS480 series supports EcoStruxure, allowing for remote diagnostics and predictive maintenance.

Important Considerations (Precautions)

• Heat Dissipation: Even with a bypass, soft starters generate heat during the start/stop cycles. Ensure adequate ventilation in the enclosure.

• Harmonics: Soft starters generate harmonics only during the starting/stopping phase. Once the bypass is engaged, they produce zero harmonics.

• Starting Torque: Ensure the soft starter can provide enough torque to overcome the load’s “breakaway” friction. For heavy loads (e.g., loaded crushers), a D-curve or heavy-duty model is required.

• Phase Protection: Many Schneider soft starters will trip if they detect phase imbalance or loss; ensure the power supply is stable before commissioning.

Product Applications

Schneider Soft Starters are the “workhorses” of the following industries:

• Water & Wastewater: Centrifugal pumps (eliminates water hammer) and submersible pumps.

• HVAC: Large fans, blowers, and compressors.

• Food & Beverage: Conveyor belts (prevents products from toppling) and palletizers.

• Heavy Industry: Grinders, mixers, crushers, and material handling systems.
