Soft starters for Industrial Applications

Air Compressor
Motor ratings: 3.3kV, 450A
Qantas, Australia

Jet engines must be tested in an air speed simulator, simulating high air pressure. The compressors used to increase pressure in the testing chamber for this application are of high quality and require a large amount of power, particularly on startup.

Dealing with the high inrush current leading to site wide voltage drops typical of the largest of the compressors is Solcons specialty.

Solcons' world wide, long standing reputation for quality solutions in soft starting motors of all types made the Solcon HRVS-DN the only reliable choice for this application.
