Description

The ATS46C48N is an Altistart 46 soft starter designed for the controlled starting and stopping of high-power three-phase asynchronous motors. This unit is rated for a continuous operational current of 480 A. It utilizes advanced solid-state technology to provide a smooth voltage ramp, which effectively reduces mechanical shock to connected machinery and limits inrush current during the starting phase. The ATS46C48N is engineered to maintain equipment longevity and improve overall power system stability in demanding industrial environments.

Features

  • Rated operational current: 480 A
  • Provides soft-start and soft-stop functionality
  • Reduces mechanical stress on gears, belts, and couplings
  • Minimizes voltage drops during motor startup
  • Durable design for high-demand industrial applications

Applications

  • Large-scale pumping systems
  • High-inertia fan and ventilation drives
  • Industrial compressors
  • Heavy-duty conveyor systems
  • Large machinery drive trains

Installation Guidelines

  • Mounting: Ensure the unit is installed in a vertical orientation on a rigid, heat-resistant surface to facilitate proper airflow.
  • Ventilation: Maintain adequate clearance around the cooling components to prevent overheating during continuous or frequent cycling.
  • Wiring: Use power cables sized appropriately for the 480 A load. Ensure terminal connections are tight to prevent localized heating.
  • Grounding: A secure connection to the facility's protective earth (PE) system is mandatory for operational safety and electromagnetic compatibility.
  • Environment: Protect the internal components from dust, moisture, and corrosive substances to ensure reliable operation in harsh industrial sites.
