| Soft Start Controls from Can-D Systems |
|
Prevent the wear and tear caused by fast starts. These reliable, reduced voltage controllers will soften the starting speed and help reduce the load swing on overhead cranes. Our Soft Starts are compact & DIN Rail mountable. Available in 1 & 2 speed, in ratings of 1.5 to 20 horsepower, and from 208VAC to 575 VAC, 3phase. Suitable for new or retrofit applications. Soft Start Controls are not recommended for Hoist applications. For Hoist applications, please see CH5 Series of AC Inverters.
