New Soft Start Controllers Help Customers Reduce Energy Costs and Increase System Life
Diversified industrial manufacturer Eaton Corporation is introducing the DS7 line of
compact, high performance, soft start controllers designed for customers who require
reliable and efficient soft starting. The DS7 soft starters provide smooth acceleration
and deceleration of the load, minimizing shock to mechanical components, extending life
of the system, increasing reliability, reducing downtime and lowering costs. Designed
for pump, fan and conveyor belt applications, as well as water/wastewater and heating,
ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) industries, the DS7 soft starters reduce the
demands made on a motor during start up, resulting in reduced energy requirements.

Compliant with ISA
S88.01, the software delivers the essential features
of recipe creation and management, creation of
batches and control of their execution, automatic
execution of recipes, and simultaneous execution of
several recipes – all without leaving the familiar
and secure PAC environment. The operator interface
is provided by the Batch View software running on
Mitsubishi Electric’s GOT series HMIs.
“By minimizing mechanical and electronic impact on
the system, soft starting increases component life,”
said Ram Tenneti, product manager, Eaton. “The
DS7 soft starter can control motor deceleration,
reduce peak in-rush current, minimize penalties
from utilities and reduce costs.” Because of its small size, the Eaton DS7 soft starter
can provide customers with the benefits of soft
starting without necessitating a change in enclosure
sizes or additional assemblies. Additionally, it has an
integrated bypass relay.
The DS7 is available for current ranges from 16 to
32 amps. With an asymmetric delay angle control,
the DS7 helps make torque behavior similar to a
three-phase starter. It can take 24 volts (V) of direct
or alternating current, or 110V/230V of alternating
control voltage. It is also Underwriters Laboratories
(UL) approved.
