Starting resistors

Construction and execution

We produce starting and regulating resistors on customer-specified requests.

Application fields

Starting resistors are mainly used for limiting the starting current of electric motors.

Following versions are available:
  • Intermediate stator resistors for switch-on current limiting
  • Starting and regulating resistors for slip ring motors
  • Transition resistors for closed star-delta starting
  • Kusa (short-circuit armature) resistors: limit the starting currents on one phase only. Serve for the starting torque reduction of squirrel cage (induction) motors
