Schneider ATS22C14S6 Altistart 22 Soft Starter

Description

The ATS22C14S6 is an Altistart 22 soft starter manufactured by Schneider Electric, engineered for the controlled starting and stopping of 3-phase asynchronous motors. This unit is designed to mitigate mechanical stress and electrical surges during motor start-up by reducing inrush current, thereby extending the operational lifespan of the motor and connected drive train components.

The soft starter supports a wide voltage range of 230 V to 600 V and is capable of managing motor power ratings between 37 kW and 90 kW, with a rated operational current of 140 A. Its compact design allows for efficient installation in control cabinets, while its integrated bypass functionality optimizes energy consumption and minimizes heat dissipation during steady-state operation.

Installation Guidelines

• Mounting: Install the soft starter vertically in a clean, ventilated control cabinet. Ensure sufficient clearance above and below the unit for heat dissipation.
• Environment: The installation location must be free from conductive dust, corrosive gases, and extreme humidity to ensure long-term reliability.
• Wiring: Connect the power input and motor output terminals according to the specific motor voltage and kW rating. Utilize torque-rated tools for all terminal connections.
• Grounding: Maintain a high-integrity connection to the system's protective earth (PE) busbar to ensure electromagnetic compatibility and safety.
• Settings: Configure the starting ramp and torque limiting parameters via the front interface or configuration software to match the specific load requirements of the application.
