Soft Starters

Thyristor soft starters from 5.5 kW to 75 kW — online types without a bypass contactor, a bypass model, and a ready-built control cabinet with the breaker inside.

A soft starter solves one problem a VFD also solves, but at a fraction of the cost when speed control is not needed: getting a motor up to speed without the current inrush and mechanical shock of direct-on-line or star-delta starting.

GE300 and ST200 are online types that need no bypass contactor — one less component to wire, stock and replace. GE300 adds a large LCD interface showing all three phase currents, twelve stored fault records, a 4–20 mA analog output and optional MODBUS RTU over RS485. ST100 is the bypass model, using a microcontroller core with thyristor execution for squirrel-cage motors on mixed loads.

ST300 packages the online approach as a finished three-phase control cabinet with the circuit breaker built in, needing no contactor and no commissioning.

Frequently Asked Questions


When is a soft starter the right choice over a VFD?

When the motor needs a controlled start and stop but runs at fixed speed afterwards. A VFD is required if the process needs continuous speed or torque control.

What does 'without bypass' mean in practice?

The starter conducts continuously rather than handing over to a bypass contactor after ramp-up, removing that contactor from the panel.

Can the starter be oversized relative to the motor?

Yes on GE300 — actual power setting lets you set the rated current to the real load so protection stays accurate.

What power range is covered?

GE300 covers 5.5 kW to 75 kW at 220 V and 380 V. Confirm the rating for the other models with Boray.
