Description:
NuStart is both a soft starter and protection device for the scroll compressor in the HVAC/R system. The product uses a current-based motor control to optimize motor start-up for the scroll compressor. In doing so, significant reductions in-rush amperage and motor torque with compressor start-up. End-user benefits include: reduction in start-up noise and vibration, eliminates light flicker and nuisance circuit breaker trips, reduction in contactor arcing, and less mechanical stress on the compressor and connected refrigerant piping. Furthermore, lowering the in-rush current of the compressor allows for more efficient start-up with off-grid solutions such as solar/battery systems or backup power sources – allowing the use of a smaller generator.
NuStart provides another level of protection for the scroll compressor in the HVAC/R system. NuStart offers exclusive reverse motor (scroll) protection, under voltage protection, to prevent motor stalling at start-up or during operation in low voltage (brownout) events. The single-phase series provide overcurrent protection to the compressor; whereas the three-phase types provide overvoltage protection and reverse motor detection features. NuStart provides added protectionis to the compressor – it is NOT a replacement for any primary circuit breaker or an overload protection device.
