Replacing an existing Drive/Soft Starter

In order for us to advise in a replace on an existing Drive/Soft Starter regardless of brand we first need to know a few parameters and specifications, such as:

  • Drive nameplate,
  • Electric Motor nameplate,
  • Application if possible,
  • Basic wiring diagram or terminal function,
Selecting Drive Tips

Correct drive sizing depends on motor current, load characteristics, duty cycle, and system configuration.

We assist engineers and maintenance teams with selecting the correct Variable Speed Drive or Soft Starter for reliable industrial operation.
