What is the minimum motor current an ATS480 soft starter can operate with?
The ATS480 supports motors with a nominal current ranging from 40% to 130% of the soft starter's rated current. In other words, the motor's full-load current (FLA) must be between 0.4 × In and 1.3 × In, where In is the ATS480 rated current.
Examples
| ATS480 Rated Current | Minimum Motor Current | Maximum Motor Current |
|---|---|---|
| 100 A | 40 A | 130 A |
| 210 A | 84 A | 273 A |
| 590 A | 236 A | 767 A |
