Stellar SR55 Soft Starter Overview from AutomationDirect

The new SR55 Soft Starter from AutomationDirect is an incredible value. It has MORE features in a smaller footprint AND all for a LOWER price than other soft starters outfitted with a similar feature set. What kind of features? How about 17 to 477 Full Load Amps. Easy communications – Setup, monitor and configure the SR-55 via the included RJ12 port OR the optional Ethernet/IP module or the optional Modbus/TCP module. There’s even an optional serial splitter so you can quickly connect multiple soft starters via serial Modbus with no additional custom wiring on your part. And you can control every soft starter in that chain with the optional remote touchscreen! Of course, if you have just one soft starter, the built in touch screen makes configuring these guys a snap - especially when you use the easy setup wizard. You just choose one of the many typical applications, and the SR55 auto-configures all of the parameters for you. How about that? Under the hood you’ll find Built-in Internal Bypass contactors so you don’t have to add them yourself Built-in Current Measurement - for those times when you just need one extra analog input and don’t want to spend money on adding a whole ‘nother controller Built-in PTC Thermistor Input – perfect for keeping up with your motors temperature - again WITHOUT having to add an entire controller just to monitor one temperature value .. Built-in SCR failure protection – to help ensure a long life Additional I/O – again so you don’t have to add another controller just to monitor and control a few discrete I/O The control power to the unit can take 24Vdc OR 115-AC and 230-AC which is great for those times when you simply don’t have 24 Volts available – you just grab it off of the power lines coming into the unit! The firmware is field upgradeable via the built-in USB port which can also be used for log files and saving and loading configuration files – all of which saves you time and money in the field. Add to all of that the field replaceable touchscreen and fans – which again saves you time and money – and you see why we think the SR55 soft starter from AutomationDirect is an incredible value. And don’t forget – AutomationDirect has free shipping on orders over $49 bucks, a 30 day money back guarantee, Free Award Winning Tech Support and a 2 year warranty.
