With the softstarter, gating control is used to
reduce the motor voltage, which is then, within a
predetermined ramp-up time tSTART raised
to the mains voltage from a settable starting
voltage (USTART). In this way, the smooth
starting and stopping of the motor protects the
mechanical devices connected to it from being
subjected to the load with a jolt, and it prevents
current peaks and therefore voltage dips in the
electrical supply network.
