Soft Starting System for Medium Voltage Motors
When large motors start abruptly, the impact is felt across the entire electrical system. Sudden inrush current can strain transformers, disturb voltage levels, and shorten equipment life. These efficient soft starter designed to reduce inrush current, protect motors, and ensure smooth startup for industrial applications
Our medium voltage soft starters address that challenge with controlled, reduced-voltage acceleration. Supplied through Dutco Tennant LLC, these systems are used in facilities where pumps, compressors, conveyors, and heavy-duty fans must start reliably without stressing the network.
Instead of an aggressive power surge, the motor ramps up gradually. That controlled start protects mechanical components, stabilises electrical performance, and supports smoother, more dependable plant operations over time.
