Soft Starters

Soft starters for simple machines 0 - Altistart 01 - ATS 01 Soft start units and soft start - soft stop units for single phase or 3-phase asynchronous motors from 0,37 to 75 kW.

230... 415 V / 208... 690 V - 50/60 Hz 
Starting and stopping of the machine by the Altistart 48 torque control system (TCS patent: Torque Control System) Thermal protection of the motor Protection of the machine: underload and overload with adjustable threshold and times, locked rotor, control of the direction of rotation.

Factory set for immediate start-up Simplified customization of settings using built-in display or the PowerSuite software Through connection Control of starter bypass contactor to prevent heat dissipation Dual configuration (2 motors) Numerous configurable inputs/outputs Cascaded starting and deceleration of a number of motors Modbus Integrated, FIPIO, Profibus DP, DeviceNet, Ethernet.

Compact Drives 0.18 to 4 kW - Altivar 12

A design focussed on integration 
Advanced functions for increased productivity (integrated PID, multi-speed, etc.) Easy communication with all other machine components via integrated universal Modbus serial link Smaller footprint, notably in terms of the depth of equipment, as the baseplate mounted version dissipates heat into the machine frame.


No compromise on quality Ever higher performance for your motors ensured by: The factory settings, which provide a high quality drive from the very first time the power is turned on The integration of Standard (U/f), Performance (sensorless flux vector control, or SVC) and Pump/Fan (quadratic profile Kn²) control profiles High dynamic performance on acceleration as well as on braking Excellent speed regulation on machine load surges Reduced noise and maintenance Designed for easy fitting and wiring of the drive: Easy access angles Numerous, easy to identify markings Fast detection and protection against motor current peaks (common in motor switching and catch on the fly applications) Perfect integration of single-phase 240 V model into the electrical network thanks to its built-in EMC filter.
