Altivar Soft Starter ATS480

Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 Soft starters for asynchronous motors

Presentation

Process, infrastructures, and industrial machines Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 is specifically designed to meet the requirements of the following market segments: b Water and wastewater b Oil and gas b Mining, minerals, and metals b Food and beverage b Marine ATS480 also meets the needs of industrial machines. The Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 range increases availability, helps to ensure continuous operations, and reduces downtime thanks to its: b Torque control b Simplicity b Connectivity b Communication services b Robustness

Applications The Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 helps to secure soft starting and stopping even for the most demanding applications, while reducing mechanical wear and fluid shocks

in hydraulic applications. ATS480 features include: b Sized for normal duty and heavy duty applications

b Controlled acceleration thanks to TCS, the original torque control system b Controlled deceleration thanks to TCS, the original torque control system b Efficient dynamic braking and DC injection down to zero speed to stop large inertia application

b Up to 700% motor current starting without tripping b Boost function to override locked shaft, friction b Smoke extraction b Cascade

EcoStruxure Plant integration The association of Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 with Schneider Electric automation control systems like EcoStruxure Process Expert (for hybrid systems) offers a high-performance, global automation and motor control solution with optimized total cost of ownership (TCO). The solution provides operational integrity for people, processes, and assets, with improved maintenance support to help reduce downtime and ensure operation continuity. It offers operational insight by accessing more information to optimize the process. Based on market standards (FDT/DTM, Ethernet, etc.), it is a sustainable, scalable solution that enables processes to be adapted easily and affordably. An integrated automation system powered by EcoStruxure offers the following benefits:
