Overview

The ABB PSTX Normal Duty Enclosed Softstarter (SKU: X300-B4-48-ND) is a factory-assembled motor control solution for AC motors up to 300HP (361A) at 480V, designed for normal duty applications. This integrated unit combines the PSTX softstarter with a TMAX XT breaker (XT4 frame, 65kA SSCR at 480V) for coordinated motor protection and control. The Type 4 enclosure provides protection against dust, water, and corrosion, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. Local control and status monitoring are facilitated by door-mounted pilot devices, including a PSTX keypad for parameter configuration, a Hand-Off-Auto selector switch, Start/Stop pushbuttons, and three pilot lights (Power On, Run, Fault). The PSTX softstarter supports Normal Duty Class 10 starts for 300HP/361A applications and Heavy Duty Class 30 starts for 250HP/302A applications. The integrated TMAX XT breaker ensures reliable fault protection with a 65kA rating at 480V. This solution is ideal for applications such as pumps, fans, compressors, and conveyors where controlled acceleration, reduced mechanical stress, and reliable operation are critical. The unit is manufactured in the US and distributed by Gross Automation, representing a robust softstarting solution for demanding industrial needs.

MTR DIN MT SOFT START 480V 3A
The softstarter PSR37-600-70 has a rated maximum operational current of 37 A with an operating voltage span from 208...600 V AC. The rated control voltage is between 100...240 V AC at 50/60 Hz. PSR features a two-phase control soft start and stop through a voltage ramp. It has built-in bypass for easy installation and energy saving. A RUN and a TOR signal is available from a relay output in NO (normally open state). The start/stop ramp and time is easy to set by three potentiometers on the front. PSR is often used in combination with a manual motor starter (MMS) from ABB, so mechanical connection kits are available. Another popular option is Fieldbus communication, which can be enabled by an external adaptor and a Fieldbus plug. The PSR range is our most compact softstarters with basic functionality and values. They are suitable for small three-phase motors with nominal currents from 3...105 A and can manage up to 100 starts per hour. Common applications are, for example, pumps, fans, compressors, and conveyors.
