Frequency converters are often used in applications that involve running at a variable speed or where motor ramp up and ramp down must be controlled, for example. The CONTACTRON Speed Starter combines the advantages of a compact motor starter with the essential features of a frequency converter for a wide range of applications:

• Easy and intuitive operation via display, knob, and operating buttons. No time-consuming parameterization required.
• Space savings in the control cabinet due to the compact design with an overall width starting at just 35 mm.
• Economical component management by focusing on the essential functions for many drive technology applications

The integrated safety function enables use in safety-related emergency stop applications without any additional contactor circuits. Safe Torque Off (STO) ensures that the motor is no longer supplied with energy to rotate. This means that torque can no longer be generated once this function has been triggered.

Do you want to maximize the efficiency and safety of your system?
By immediately switching off the torque of motors, the STO function enables fast and safe intervention in case of emergencies or unforeseen events in your system. This not only minimizes downtime, but also prevents potential accidents and injuries and creates a safe working environment.
