This soft starter belongs to the Altivar ATS130 series of soft starters, designed for starting and stopping asynchronous motors with voltages ranging from 200 to 480 V. With a rated operating current of 80 A under normal load, it powers motors from 22 to 45 kW depending on the supply voltage. The compact design offers mechanical and electrical flexibility in control panel construction. The ATS130 is maintenance-free and enables optimized motor management, especially when combined with the TeSys Deca motor protection switch. Everlink power terminals and spring-loaded control terminals are included as standard, eliminating the need for annual cable tightening. The ATS130 soft starter has the same width (80 mm) as the TeSys Deca Frame 4 motor protection switch. Its dimensions are 80 mm (width) x 180 mm (depth) x 222 mm (height), and it weighs 2.06 kg. The Altivar ATS130 soft starter is designed for pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors, and other simple machines. The soft starter complies with the IEC/EN60947-4-1 standard and has received CE, cULus, UKCA, CCC, and RCM certifications. It is possible to add a mounting kit for the installation of the TeSys Deca Frame 3 motor protection switch or a fan to increase the number of starts per hour. Multiple ATS130 soft starters can be mounted side by side on a back panel or on a DIN rail and are compatible with a cabinet depth of 200 mm. The Altivar ATS130 soft starter is maintenance-free and enhances operational efficiency during development, manufacturing, and commissioning.
