Schneider ATS22C32Q Altistart 22 Soft Starter 320A 400-440V 160kW Bypass

The Schneider Electric ATS22C32Q is a 320 A three-phase soft starter from the Altistart 22 series, designed for asynchronous motors up to 160 kW at 400-440 V or 90 kW at 230 V. Torque-controlled starting limits inrush current to 3.5 In, while the integrated bypass and Modbus RS485 communication port make it well-suited for pump and fan drive systems in industrial automation panels.
