Nu start 3.5-5 ton 5010-21
Nu start 3.5-5 ton 5010-21 - rated for 3.5 to 5 tons (16-32 Amp RLA) systems. It reduces start-up current and torque, providing added protection and improving system efficiency.
- Function: The device uses current-based motor control to optimize the start-up of a scroll compressor, gradually increasing the motor's speed instead of abruptly turning it on at full power.
- Compatibility: It is compatible with modern single-stage, dual-stage, and digital scroll compressors operating on 208-230 VAC power. It should not be used with inverter-type scroll compressors.

User Benefits:
- Reduces in-rush current by 60-70% and start-up torque by 30-40%.
- Eliminates light flickering and nuisance circuit breaker trips at start-up.
- Lowers start-up noise and vibration, and reduces mechanical stress on the compressor and refrigerant piping.
- Allows for the use of smaller generators or off-grid power sources.
