Description
The PSTX840-600-70 softstarter is an advanced motor control unit designed for precise, reliable, and energy-efficient motor starting. Engineered to handle up to 840 A at 208–600 V AC, it provides smooth acceleration and deceleration using three-phase voltage or torque control, reducing electrical stress and mechanical wear. Its built-in bypass ensures easier installation, reduced wiring effort, and improved system efficiency.
This soft starter includes a wide range of intelligent motor protection features—such as current limiting, EOL, motor heating, and pump cleaning—along with advanced functionalities like diagnostics, braking, jog, and emergency/fire pump mode. The PSTX840 offers flexible communication via Modbus RTU and optional ANYBUS modules supporting Profinet, Profibus, Ethernet/IP, and Modbus TCP. Its detachable IP66-rated graphic display enables easy configuration and real-time monitoring, even in harsh environments. For fully integrated installations, pair it with our industrial panel fabrication solutions for complete control and protection.
