Clearwater, Fla .—Medium-voltage motor applications in the 2.3-13.8 kV range can benefit from the introduction of MVC Plus Series Medium Voltage Soft Starter. The fully adjustable unit supplies the exact voltage required to start a load, holding down damaging inrush currents. It also provides a “soft stopping” feature, plus selectable pump control starting curves that make it an alternative to auto-transformer starters. MVC Plus comes complete as an E2 controller in a NEMA 12 housing, including fused disconnect (with door safety interlocks), inline isolation contactor, vacuum bypass contactor, and digital controller. A motor control center version is available with special performance options. www.motortronics.com .Motortronics
