AC drives are used to control the speed and torque of a standard induction motor. ABB is a market leader in both motors and drives worldwide.

AC drive technology provides complete control of motor speed, increasing the productivity and efficiency of the driven process. When low capacity is required, the drive reduces the machine speed and saves energy.

ABB manual motor starters are electromechanical protection devices for the main circuit. They are used mainly to switch motors manually ON/OFF and to provide fuseless protection against short-circuit, overload and phase failures. Fuseless protection saves costs, space and ensures a quick reaction under short-circuit condition by switching off the motor within milliseconds.

ABB's PSTX Softstarter is designed to address some of the most common electrical problems that come from starting motors. It both reduces starting current at the same time as it keeps the motor protected from both load and network irregularities. A great component in any motor starting panel.
