Schneider Altivar ATS480 Softstarter Applications: Explore its use in heavy-duty pumps, compressors, & conveyors. Discover advanced motor control for demanding tasks.

Schneider Altivar ATS480 Softstarter Applications

• Pumps: The torque control feature of the Schneider Altivar ATS480 softstarters is particularly beneficial for pump applications, minimizing water hammer and extending equipment lifespan. This is very important in waste water, and fresh water applications.
• Fans: Soft starting reduces mechanical stress on fan systems, preventing belt slippage and extending the life of both the fan and the motor.
• Compressors: By reducing starting torque, Schneider Altivar ATS480 softstarters minimize mechanical stress on compressors, leading to increased reliability and longevity.
• Conveyor Belts: Smooth acceleration and deceleration prevent product damage and reduce wear on conveyor systems.

Benefits Across Applications:

• Reduced mechanical stress: Soft starting and stopping minimize wear and tear on motors and connected equipment.
• Reduced electrical stress: Limiting starting current reduces voltage dips and stress on the electrical grid.
• Improved process control: Torque control and other advanced features enable precise control of motor acceleration and deceleration.
• Increased reliability: Built-in motor protection features enhance the overall reliability of the system.

Schneider Altivar ATS480 soft-starter are valuable in any application where controlled motor starting and stopping are essential for optimizing performance and extending equipment life.
