Motor starter with integrated isolation contactor

August 2022 Motion Control & Drives

Tele Hasse’s P4 motor controller is designed to provide a soft-start to minimise high inrush currents during the startup of a three-phase squirrel-cage motor. This protects the electrical supply and electrical installation from overload.

In plants with multiple motors, the use of a soft starter reduces the dimensions of wire sizes, protection systems and power supply. Owing to its integrated functions and protection circuits, classic motor protection is not required – the installation requires only the line fuses to protect the wires.

Typical applications include storage and logistics systems, parcel and goods transportation systems, ventilation systems, machine building, water supply systems, regenerative power generation plants and PV tracker control.
