Description

SSC-25: 25A Soft Start Controller for AC Motors

The SSC-25 Soft Start Controller is a compact, mains-operated soft-start power module designed to deliver smooth, controlled start-up of AC loads, reducing mechanical stress, electrical shock and nuisance tripping. Suitable for 110V and 230V AC systems, the SSC-25 is ideal for applications where high inrush current can shorten equipment life or disrupt power supplies.

With an adjustable ramp-up time from 1 to 60 seconds and a configurable 10–50% pedestal voltage, the SSC-25 allows precise control of start-up behaviour across a wide range of loads. Whether used with heat lamps, fans, pumps or AC motor loads, it provides reliable performance, improved efficiency and enhanced equipment protection.

 

Designed for straightforward integration, this soft-start module is a practical upgrade for systems requiring gentle acceleration, reduced peak current and long-term operational stability.

Key Features

  • Smooth Soft-Start Control
    Gradually increases output voltage to minimise inrush current and electrical stress.

  • Adjustable Ramp-Up Time (1–60 Seconds)
    Allows tailored start-up profiles for different motors and resistive loads.

  • Adjustable Pedestal Voltage (10–50%)
    Sets the initial start voltage for optimal performance across varying applications.

  • High Inrush Current Capability
    Handles up to 25A RMS when mounted on a suitable heatsink.

  • Wide Voltage Compatibility
    Suitable for 110V or 230V AC systems at 50/60Hz.

  • Compact, User-Friendly Design
    Space-saving module with simple controls and minimal setup requirements.

  • Straightforward Wiring Layout
    Simplifies installation and reduces commissioning time.

  • Improved Equipment Protection
    Helps protect connected devices from transient voltages and sudden power surges.


Applications

The SSC-25 Soft Start Controller is ideal for a wide range of commercial and industrial applications, including:

  • Heat lamps and infrared heaters
  • Fans and ventilation systems
  • Pumps and fluid handling equipment
  • AC motor loads
  • General-purpose soft-start applications

Its flexible configuration makes it suitable for both new installations and retrofit projects where controlled start-up is essential.

Important Note

 

The SSC-25 Soft Start Controller is designed to operate with a direct AC input. Any limitation, modification or conditioning of the AC supply may affect product performance and should be carefully evaluated during system design.
