Product description
Appliances with electric motors often tend to use more electricity during start-up. This can lead to an excessive inrush current, causing the fuse in the electrical mains to ‘trip’. To address this problem and ensure that the fuses remain intact, there is the 230 Volt inrush current limiter.
This handy current limiter is easily connected between the wall socket (or extension cord) and the appliance with the electric motor. It is equipped with a long and robust mains cable, making it easy to use in various situations.
The main advantage of the inrush current limiter is that it dampens and limits the peak of the starting current. This means the current surge is reduced, so the fuse in the electrical system remains intact and doesn't blow. This prevents annoying situations where you keep having to replace a fuse while doing DIY.
The inrush current limiter is particularly useful on construction sites and for DIY jobs. It can be used with various electrical tools and machines, such as angle grinders, tile cutters, compressors, circular saws, drills, shredders, welding machines, crushers, sanders, pressure washers, and more. This allows you to work with confidence and ease, without worrying about exceeding the maximum current and tripping the fuse.
This specific soft starter features a connecting cable that is +/- 280cm long with a robust mains plug and earthed contact. This allows you to connect it safely and reliably to your devices.
It is important to note, however, that this inrush current limiter is only suitable for single-phase devices operating on a 230 Volt mains supply. It is also important to mention that this current limiter is intended for indoor use. If you need a solution for limiting the inrush current at a socket outlet, there are special current limiters that fit directly into the socket outlet and are also available for different voltages.
In short, the inrush current limiter for 230 Volts is an essential tool to keep your fuses intact and prevent unnecessary delays and problems during DIY. With its ease of use, compatibility with various devices, and reliable performance, this limiter is a valuable addition to your tool collection and electrical equipment.
Applications
Useful on building sites and for DIY: grinding disc (angle grinder), tile cutter, compressor, circular saw, drill, shredder, welding machine, chipper, sander, pressure washer, and other electric tools and machinery.
This inrush current limiter is equipped with a long connection cable with a robust mains plug and protective earth contact. It is also suitable for capacitor motors, pumps, and transformers.
Only for single-phase devices operating on 230 Volt mains. For indoor use, there is the Current limitnZero in the socket.
