Overview

VLT® Soft Starter (MCD series) A soft starter ramps the voltage applied to a motor during start, limiting inrush current and the mechanical shock transmitted to belts, couplings, gearboxes and pump columns, then runs the motor across the line once it is up to speed. It is the right device where starting current or water hammer is the problem and variable running speed is not required — which is also why it costs less and dissipates less heat than a variable frequency drive. Danfoss drives are configured rather than stocked as fixed catalogue items: the type code MCD 600 Finger guards for 0144B-0579B describes this exact build, and 175G0186 is the quick order number Danfoss issues for it. Other valid configurations can be built to order.
  • High-performance industrial component by Danfoss
