Overview

The Hammond Power 2909D2 is a 2A-series motor starting autotransformer engineered for heavy-duty industrial motor applications, specifically designed to handle high inrush currents during motor startup. This 2-coil autotransformer operates at a rated voltage of 600V and is rated for motors up to 200HP, ensuring compatibility with large industrial motors requiring reliable soft-start capabilities. The 2909D2 effectively reduces high inrush current during motor startup, which minimizes voltage dips on the power system and alleviates mechanical stress on both motors and driven equipment. By providing controlled voltage ramp-up, it extends the operational life of motors and associated electrical infrastructure, reducing wear and tear during frequent start-stop cycles. Built for durability in demanding industrial environments, the autotransformer is constructed to withstand harsh conditions and protect against power quality issues such as surges and fluctuations. Manufactured in the USA under stringent quality standards, the 2909D2 complies with UNSPSC code 39121035 and is assigned SKU 2909D2. This unit is ideal for applications where reduced startup current is critical to maintaining system stability, preventing nuisance tripping, and ensuring smooth motor acceleration without compromising performance.
