11kW – 280kW @400VAC General Purpose Soft Starter
The DFE is Fairford’s internally bypassed, non-optimising soft starter which is perfect for panel builders and end users alike. To the user it offers competitive pricing, soft stopping and the removal of high transient currents.
To the panel builder it can easily substitute a Star/Delta starter because it fits into a similar footprint thus simplifying installation.
Features
Internally Bypassed
Reduces cost because the soft starter is out of circuit once it has done its job. This reduces cabinet size and the heat produced which again reduces cost.
Can Substitute Star/Delta Starter
Quicker build time, less maintenance cost, reduced down-time and therefore lower cost of ownership.
Competitive with Star/Delta Starters
Longer life, less maintenance, reduced down-time and therefore lower cost of ownership.
Removal of high transient currents
Star/Delta Starters cause ‘shock loading’ to mechanical systems leading to high rates of contactor failure and increased maintenance costs. The DFE soft starter with its smooth step-less acceleration virtually eliminates these problems.
Simplified Installation
Rapid Build and Install Time.
No Need to Change Layout Drawings
Saves time and cost.
