About Starters
Motor starters control electrical power to an air compressor motor and provide the switching and protective functions required by the application. Proper starter selection is essential for reliable starting, stopping, and coordination with the compressor's pressure and safety controls.
Verify voltage, phase, horsepower, full-load amperage, coil voltage, overload range, enclosure type, and control-circuit requirements before ordering. Electrical components should be selected and installed by qualified personnel in accordance with the equipment wiring diagram and applicable codes.
