Why Choose the Danfoss 132H2236 VLT MCD 600 Soft Starter?

The Danfoss 132H2236 is a high-performance VLT MCD 600 soft starter designed to provide smooth and reliable starting and stopping control for large three-phase AC motors in industrial applications. As part of the advanced Danfoss VLT MCD 600 series, it combines intelligent motor control, advanced protection functions and adaptive starting technology to improve system reliability and operational efficiency.

The MCD 600 soft starter uses digital control technology with current feedback to create precise motor ramp profiles. Its integrated Adaptive Acceleration Control (AAC) automatically selects the optimal acceleration and deceleration profile for the application, helping reduce mechanical stress, electrical inrush current and wear on connected equipment.

With a rated current of 448 A, a three-phase 200–525 V AC supply and a compact S2 frame IP00 enclosure, the Danfoss 132H2236 is ideal for demanding motor control applications including pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors and industrial processing systems. This model is supplied without an integrated bypass contactor, allowing flexible system design where external bypass arrangements are required.
