Schneider Electric Soft Starters (Soft Starts)

Altistart 01 Series – Compact Soft Starters (IEC motor protection & smooth start)

These are basic soft starters for small to medium motors with smooth start/stop control. Typical range covers small power motors and straightforward applications.

Altistart 01 Examples

  • Schneider Electric ATS01 Soft Starter 6 A – Compact 3-phase soft starter.
  • Schneider Electric ATS01 Soft Starter 9 A – Rated ~230–480 V.
  • Schneider Electric ATS01 Soft Starter 12 A – Typical ~5.5 kW motor soft start.
  • Schneider Electric ATS01 Soft Starter 32 A – Example ~15 kW soft starter.
  • Schneider Electric ATS01 Soft Starter 3 A – Lower current version.
  • ATS01 Soft Starter 6 A 110 V – 110 V variant for smaller installations.
  • ATS01 Soft Starter 25 A – Higher current option.
  • Schneider Electric ATS01N209RT Soft Starter – Alternative ATS01 variant.

Altistart 01 typical soft starters support smooth ramp voltage control and are used in conveyors, fans, pumps, etc.


Altistart 22 Series – Mid-Range Industrial Soft Starters

Designed for heavier industrial loads with improved control and robustness compared to Altistart 01. They support higher current ranges (e.g., ~17 A up to ~75 A and beyond).

Altistart 22 Examples

  • Schneider Electric ATS22C11Q Soft Starter – Mid-range unit.
  • Schneider Electric Altistart 22 Soft Starter ATS22D47Q – Industrial soft start option.
  • Schneider Electric ATS22D62Q Soft Starter – Larger current capacity.
  • Schneider Electric ATS22D17Q Soft Starter – General industrial use.
  • Schneider Electric ATS22D75S6U Soft Starter – Higher-power industrial starter.
  • Schneider Electric ATS22D62S6 Soft Starter – Alternate configuration.
  • Schneider Electric ATS22C59Q – Very high current option.
  • Schneider Electric ATS22D17S6U Soft Starter – S6U control format.

📌 Altistart 22 is typically used for heavier motors and frequent starts/stops in industrial environments.


🟥 Altistart 48 & ATS480 / Large Soft Starters

Heavy industrial soft starters designed for high power motors (large current and kW) — ideal for large pumps, compressors, and heavy machinery.

Examples

  • Schneider Electric Altistart 48 Soft Starter ATS48D38Q – Medium-power industrial.
  • Schneider Electric Altistart 48 Soft Starter ATS48C17Q – Higher power.
  • Schneider Electric ATS48C14Y Soft Starter – Heavy duty.
  • Schneider Electric ATS48C21Y Soft Starter – Industrial.
  • Schneider Electric ATS48C48Q Soft Starter – Very high kW.
  • Schneider Electric 132 kW Soft Starter and Schneider Electric 110 kW Soft Starter – Examples of high kW capability.
  • Schneider Electric ATS480D22Y Soft Starter – One of the ATS480 family starters.

These are industrial soft starters used where significant starting torque and motor protection is needed.


General Notes

  • Schneider Electric’s soft starter families (Altistart 01 / 22 / 48 / ATS480 etc.) are designed to cover from small fractional motors up to very high power industrial motors.
  • Part numbers typically indicate current rating, voltage range, and internal configuration, so for exact sizing match the motor kW and supply voltage when selecting.
