Soft-Start Functionality
The soft-start functionality of the medium voltage starter is one of its unique selling points. This feature allows the motor to start with a reduced voltage, gradually ramping up to full voltage. This soft-start process minimizes the initial high current surge, which can cause wear on the motor windings and mechanical stress on the shaft. This not only prolongs the motor's lifespan but also protects connected machinery from the effects of sudden torque. The result is a more reliable operation with fewer breakdowns and a reduction in maintenance costs, offering significant value to the end-user.
