Square D Model 5 NEMA Size 1 Soft Starter - 480V/3P
Soft Starter | NEMA 1 | 15HP | 480V/3P | Reduced Voltage Starting
This Square D Model 5 NEMA Size 1 soft starter MCC bucket provides controlled voltage ramp-up for smooth motor acceleration, constructed for long-service-life operation. Rated for 15HP at 480V three-phase, the integrated solid-state soft starter eliminates mechanical stress by gradually increasing motor voltage, reducing inrush current by up to 70 percent. Features adjustable ramp times, current limiting, and built-in motor protection, allowing hot-swappable serviceability without de-energizing the MCC lineup. Widely specified for mining operations, pulp and paper mills, and heavy industrial complexes, the Model 5 soft starter bucket enables quick replacement and serviceability without disrupting adjacent MCC units. UL 845 listed and NEC Article 430 compliant for immediate installation.
