    A common question when deciding between a soft starter or a drive is, which one to select? The purpose of this publication is to show similarities and differences between the soft starter and the drive.
  • A Discussion of Reduced Voltage Soft Starter Harmonics
    The generation of harmonics by SCR based reduced voltage soft starters and the current harmonic spectrum generated is discussed. Some example harmonic spectrums are given that can be used for approximate calculations.
  • Soft Starter Bypass Technology in SmartMotor Controllers
    Use a soft start bypass, either internal or external, to allow an application to run continuously after the start in a closed contactor mode and to open once a stop or fault command has been provided.
  • Slow Speed Applications Using a Soft Starter
    Slow speed plays a big role for workers and machinery during startup. Alignment of moving machinery at a slow speed helps reduce the number of trials to see whether adjustments are correct without having to go to full speed. The ability to start at a slow speed can. also decrease the risk of an
  • Why Are Drives Easier to Apply Than Soft Starters?
    Consider torque requirements, speed control and power distribution when deciding between a soft starter or an AC drive for an application.
  • RSBS Series Single-phase Compressor Soft Starters
    Carlo Gavazzi has launched the RSBS series, a compact, single-phase soft-starter. The RSBS is designed for single-phase compressors and is an ideal solution in single phase voltage networks that are prone to voltage fluctuations.
