The inrush current limiter prevents mechanical stress and electrical load when switching on the machine.
This protects bearings, gears, belts, and electrical equipment such as switches, relays, etc.
The service life and maintenance intervals are extended.
The electrical function can be compared to a mechanical valve.
When the machine is turned on, the valve is not fully open. The switch-on surge current, which is normally 6 to 10 times higher, cannot occur.
After turning on the machine, the valve opens slowly so that the machine then operates at full power.
Technical data:
for machines up to 3500 W
splash-proof plastic housing and sockets
built-in test function lamp
2 sockets: one for the inrush current limiter, the other with a function like a standard household socket for less powerful machines, such as a drill or work light.
Operating voltage: 220-230 volts / 50, 60 Hz
fully electronic, i.e., no wearing parts such as relays.
Also suitable for capacitor motors
