Schneider Electric ATS01N206RT Altistart 01 Soft Starter

Description

The ATS01N206RT is a soft starter from the Altistart 01 series designed for the controlled starting and stopping of three-phase asynchronous motors. By regulating the voltage ramp, this device minimizes mechanical stress and current surges during motor acceleration, facilitating smoother operation in industrial machinery. It is specifically engineered to support motors with a power rating of 2-3 HP and handles a rated operational current of 6 A within a supply voltage range of 440-480V. The unit is optimized for compact control panel installations where space efficiency is required.

Features

• Soft start and soft stop control for three-phase asynchronous motors
• Integrated bypass contactor for reduced heat dissipation during operation
• Compact physical footprint for high-density DIN rail mounting
• Simplified adjustment settings for starting time and deceleration
• Voltage ramp regulation to limit torque transients

Applications

• Conveyor systems and material handling equipment
• Small pumps and fan assemblies
• Packaging machines
• Centrifugal machinery
• Light-duty industrial motor applications

Installation Guidelines

• Mounting: Designed for standard DIN rail installation. Ensure vertical orientation to maintain cooling airflow.
• Cooling: Maintain adequate clearance around the unit to prevent thermal buildup; do not obstruct ventilation slots.
• Wiring: Use appropriate wire gauges corresponding to the 6 A current rating. Ensure all power terminals are securely tightened to prevent contact resistance.
• Environment: Install in a clean, dry location free from excessive dust, moisture, and corrosive atmospheres.
• Protection: It is recommended to use appropriate branch circuit protection (fuses or circuit breakers) upstream of the soft starter as per local electrical codes.
