Soft Starters

eMotors Direct’s stock of soft starters are designed to reduce load and torque temporarily during startup, helping to mitigate a current surge that could cause catastrophic damage to your electric motor and related equipment. They can be applied to water pump situations to avoid pressure surges at startup, conveyor belt systems to prevent jerking and other stresses, belt-driven systems to help prevent belt slippage, and any other application where you require a smooth and steady power ramp-up. By improving the power supply stability, soft starters help lower power costs and prevent mechanical stress on the driving components.

Our soft starter category covers products from top soft starter manufacturers, ABB and TECO-Westinghouse. All available with three-phase input and chassis enclosures. Make your soft starter selection from horsepower options starting at 3 HP all the way up to 900 HP.
