The ABB PSE170-600-70 is a fully integrated, microprocessor-controlled electronic motor starter designed for the reliable control and protection of three-phase induction motors. As part of ABB's PSE series, it combines the functions of a soft starter, overload relay, and contactor into a single, compact unit. This device provides controlled acceleration (soft start), comprehensive motor protection, and various control features, making it an efficient alternative to traditional star-delta or direct-on-line (DOL) starters for applications requiring reduced mechanical stress and limited starting current.
