Altistart 22 the Compact Soft Starter with ... - Schneider Electric

Altistart 22 soft start/soft stop unitThe Altistart 22 soft start/soft stop unit uses both voltage and torque control toprovide a soft start and soft stop for three-phase asynchronous motors between17 A and 590 A.Innovative,economicaland safeCustomer values:• Reduce your wiring cost and installation time• Save your valuable mounting space• Decrease your operating cost• Improve your machine performance3

Bypass the stressDecrease your operating costThe Altistart 22 soft start/soft stop unit controls motorcurrent in-rush, reducing your electrical demandcost. Conformal coated printed circuit boardsprovide enhanced resistance to harsh environments,increasing the service life of your installation andreducing maintenance cost.Improve your machineperformance• The Altistart 22 soft start/soft stop unit incorporatestrue three-phase control with other protectionfunctions to monitor and protect your machine tosustain up-time• The soft start and soft stop reduces mechanicalstress on your machine increasing productivitywhile protecting your delicate goods5

Programming andcommunication made simpleAltistart 22 communicates easily• The integrated keypad display provides access to configuration menus and provides real-timevisual feedback• The easy start menu guides you through the basic parameters to get you up and running quickly• The multi-function integrated Modbus ® port allows connection to either:»»A remote-mount keypad to allow access outside of the enclosure»»Connection to a Modbus network for remote communication»»SoMove PC software for configuration and diagnosticsSafePracticalAlso available in IP65 version6
