Overview

The WEG SSW900F0820T5E4B Soft-Starter is a high-performance, industrial-grade motor control solution designed to deliver smooth, controlled acceleration and deceleration for three-phase induction motors. Engineered by WEG, a global leader in motor and drive technology, this soft starter minimizes mechanical and electrical stress during motor startup, significantly extending equipment lifespan and reducing maintenance costs. With a robust current rating of 820A, the SSW900F0820T5E4B is ideal for heavy-duty applications where reliability and precision are critical. Soft starters like the WEG SSW900F0820T5E4B are essential in industries such as water/wastewater treatment, HVAC systems, mining, oil & gas, and manufacturing, where motors frequently start and stop under load. Unlike traditional starters that deliver full voltage instantly—causing high inrush currents and mechanical shock—the SSW900F0820T5E4B gradually ramps up voltage, reducing current spikes and preventing damaging voltage sags. This not only protects motors and connected equipment but also complies with stringent energy efficiency standards. Key features of the WEG SSW900F0820T5E4B include adjustable ramp times for customized acceleration profiles, built-in motor protection against overloads and phase imbalances, and a compact, panel-mount design that simplifies installation in tight spaces. The unit’s IP66/IP67 rating ensures superior resistance to dust, moisture, and harsh environmental conditions, while its NEMA Type 4X enclosure provides additional protection against corrosion and water ingress. With a frequency range of 50/60 Hz and a three-pole configuration, this soft starter is versatile enough for global applications. Installation is straightforward with screw terminal connections and panel-mount compatibility, making it a seamless addition to existing motor control panels. WEG’s reputation for innovation and durability ensures that the SSW900F0820T5E4B meets the demands of modern industrial environments, offering long-term reliability and operational efficiency. Whether used in pumping systems to prevent water hammer, conveyor systems to reduce mechanical wear, or compressors to avoid electrical stress, this soft starter delivers consistent performance under demanding conditions. For professionals seeking a dependable, high-current soft starter that balances advanced functionality with rugged durability, the WEG SSW900F0820T5E4B is a trusted choice. Its combination of WEG’s engineering excellence, robust construction, and application-specific features makes it a standout solution for motor control challenges in industrial settings.

SSW900F0820T5E3B

SOFT-STARTER SSW900F0820T5E3B WEG specifications: Rated current 820 A; Power supply 220-575 V; Enclosure IP00; Frame F
The softstarter PSR60-600-70 has a rated maximum operational current of 60 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.
