About the ATS22C59Q
Schneider Electric ATS22 Soft Starter Series – Overview
Schneider Electric ATS22 soft starters are compact and reliable motor starting solutions designed for smooth acceleration and deceleration of asynchronous motors in standard industrial applications. The ATS22 series focuses on reducing mechanical stress, limiting starting current, and simplifying motor starting without advanced digital control requirements. With a proven design and straightforward configuration, ATS22 soft starters are commonly used for pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors, and general-purpose machinery where controlled motor starting is required.
Product Description: ATS22C59Q
The Schneider Altistart ATS22C59Q is a heavy-duty ATS22 series soft starter rated for a nominal operational current of 590 A (at 40 °C) and designed for three‑phase supply voltages in the 195–484 V range (commonly specified as 230–440 V AC, 50/60 Hz). It supports motor power ratings including 160 kW at 230 V (standard connection) and 315 kW at 400 V (standard connection), with additional published power points for triangle/star connections and alternate supply voltages. The unit provides torque control (current-limited starting) to limit inrush and mechanical stress during starts, and includes an internal bypass contactor to reduce heat dissipation and system losses once the motor is running. Integrated motor protection functions such as overload protection are provided, and the starter offers an RS‑485 communications interface for multipoint connection and configuration. Typical applications are pumps, fans, compressors and conveyor drives where controlled, current-limited starting and an internal bypass improve reliability, reduce mechanical wear, and simplify installation and replacement through compatibility with Schneider’s SoMove configuration tools.
