Advanced intelligence
Power management company Eaton is now offering the new S811+ compact soft starter for operating currents from 11-1000A.
One of the smallest intelligent devices in the industry, the S811+ comes with integrated overload protection and by-pass contactor - more than the standard protective features of most soft starters available in the market.
Enclosed versions of the S811+ are up to 78% smaller than similar products and motor control centre (MCC) units up to 63%, saving space in the control cabinet. The S811+ is suitable for use with or without an enclosure for pump, fan and conveyor belt applications. It offers an extensive range of performance features tailored to the requirements of industrial and OEM customers, and is easy to program and install.
