ABB PSRC85-600-70 softstarter, an 85 A motor starting device designed for controlled acceleration and stopping of three-phase motors in industrial applications.
£986.83
The ABB PSRC85-600-70 is a compact and reliable softstarter designed for controlled starting and stopping of three-phase motors in industrial automation, compressor and machinery applications. As part of the ABB PSRC softstarter series, it provides a simple and efficient solution for reducing motor starting current, minimising mechanical stress and improving equipment reliability.
This softstarter features ABB’s compact PSRC technology with two-phase controlled soft start through a voltage ramp. The integrated bypass function simplifies installation, reduces heat generation during normal operation and improves energy efficiency once the motor reaches full speed.
With a rated operational current of 85 A and a main supply voltage range of 208–600 V AC, the PSRC85-600-70 is suitable for medium-sized three-phase motors used in compressors, pumps, fans, conveyors and industrial machinery.
Softstarters such as the ABB PSRC85-600-70 gradually increase motor voltage during acceleration, reducing inrush current and mechanical shock compared with direct-on-line starting. This helps protect motors, couplings and driven machinery while improving operational reliability.
The ABB PSRC series provides a compact motor starting solution for applications requiring reliable soft start and stop functionality, simple installation and dependable performance. Its compressor-optimised settings make it particularly suitable for scroll compressor systems and similar motor-driven equipment.
