AltistartTM Soft Starters

Altistart™ 22 Soft Starters

The Altistart 22 is designed for commercial and normal duty industrial applications, it uses both voltage and torque control to provide a soft start and soft stop for there-phase asynchronous motors between 17 A and 590 A. The conformal-coated, printed circuit boards provide enhanced resistance to harsh environments, increasing the service life of installations and lowering maintenance costs.

Select the Altistart 22 soft starter using the nameplate full-load ampere rating of the motor and the table below. The horsepower ratings are for reference only.

The ATS22C21S6,S6U..C59S6,S6U units come with an integrated fan. The ATS22D17S6,S6U..C17S6,S6U units are ventilated by means of natural ventilation. For more demanding applications, such as those with a greater number of starts, the Altistart 22 range offers fans as an option. The fans are powered by the Altistart 22 unit and attach to the back of the device. The fan's noise level is less than 60 dBA.

Altistart™ 480 Soft Starters

The Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 is a controller with six thyristors using the TCS (torque control system) algorithm to control acceleration, deceleration, and stopping of three-phase squirrel cage asynchronous motors up to 900 kW.

The ATS480 is a cost-effective solution designed to:

  • Reduce machine operating costs by reducing mechanical stress and improving machine availability

  • Reduce the risk of severe damage by reducing fluid shocks

  • Reduce the stress on the electrical distribution system by reducing line current peaks and voltage drops during motor starts

Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 consists of one range only covering:

  • Operational voltage from 208 V to 690 V

  • Operational current from 17 A to 1200 A

ATS480 integrates Modbus serial line communication protocols as standard. Each device is equipped with two RJ45 ports for:

  • Connection to configuration and firmware update software

  • Connection of the plain text display terminal or graphic display terminal

  • Connection to a Modbus fieldbus

In addition, the ATS480 is equipped with one slot for a communication module:

• Modbus TCP

• CANopen

• PROFIBUS DP

• EtherNet/IP

• PROFINET
