Total solution with soft starter (α3 series)
Challenges associated with the spread of top runner motors and the effects of soft starters in solving them.
Many facilities are facing issues such as increased starting current, breaker malfunctions, and insufficient generator capacity. In particular, top runner motors (high-efficiency IE3 motors) have a starting current that is 1.1 to 1.4 times higher, increasing the burden compared to older motors (IE1). This has led to breaker trips and insufficient generator capacity. Effects of soft starters: Reduction of starting current → Prevention of breaker malfunctions, no need for increased generator capacity Prevention of water hammer → Gradual deceleration during pump shutdown to reduce piping damage and noise Extension of machine lifespan → Prevention of belt breakage, shaft damage, and gear damage Prevention of load collapse → Prevention of load collapse due to sudden stops of belt conveyors Prevention of damage to propellers and high-viscosity mixers → Reduction of shock during startup
