Product Description

Description

The ATS46C25N is an Altistart 46 soft starter controller designed for the controlled starting and stopping of three-phase asynchronous motors. This unit is engineered to reduce mechanical stress on drive trains and minimize electrical line disturbances (such as voltage drops) that typically occur during direct-on-line motor starts. As part of the legacy Altistart 46 range, the ATS46C25N offers advanced protection and control functions suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications, including pumps, fans, and compressors.

Features

  • Motor Control: Soft start/soft stop functionality for three-phase squirrel cage motors
  • Current Rating: 257 A
  • Voltage Compatibility: Supports 208/230 V AC, 380/400 V AC, and 460/500 V AC (50/60 Hz)
  • Performance: Designed to limit starting current peaks and provide smooth acceleration/deceleration
  • Protection: Built-in motor thermal protection and fault monitoring

Applications

  • Pumping systems (reducing hydraulic transients and pressure surges)
  • Conveyor systems (preventing belt slippage and mechanical shocks)
  • Fans and high-inertia machines (smooth starting to protect drive chains)
  • General industrial compressors and processing machinery

Installation Guidelines

  • Mounting: Install in a vertical position within a protected electrical cabinet to ensure proper airflow and cooling.
  • Environment: Operate in an environment free from conductive dust, corrosive gases, and excessive moisture. Maintain ambient temperature within specified limits.
  • Wiring: Use appropriate cable cross-sections based on the 257 A current rating. Ensure all connections are tightened to the torque values specified in the user manual.
  • Safety: Always isolate the power supply before performing installation or maintenance. Ensure proper grounding of the starter chassis to the system ground bus to prevent electrical hazards.
  • Bypass: The starter can be bypassed using an external contactor at the end of the starting period, if required by the application, to increase efficiency and reduce internal heating.
