Benshaw Soft Starters
Benshaw soft starters are designed to provide smooth motor starting, reduced mechanical stress, and dependable motor protection in demanding industrial applications. RSP Supply offers Benshaw soft starters for systems where controlled acceleration and deceleration are important to protect motors, reduce inrush current, and improve equipment life. These starters are commonly used in pumps, fans, conveyors, compressors, and other motor-driven systems where full-voltage starting may place unnecessary strain on machinery and electrical infrastructure.
Unlike traditional starters, Benshaw soft starters use solid-state electronics to control the amount of power delivered to the motor during startup and shutdown. This allows motors to start more gradually, helping reduce torque shock, current spikes, and wear on connected equipment. Many Benshaw soft starters include adjustable overload settings for improved motor protection and faster commissioning. Standard duty open chassis models may also feature an integral bypass contactor, which helps reduce heat generation during operation and improve overall efficiency after startup is complete.
Benshaw soft starters are built for industrial use and are available in models suited for both standard and severe duty applications. Their advanced control capabilities make them practical for installations that require reliable, high-demand performance and smoother motor operation without unnecessary system disruption. With features designed to support long-term motor health, efficient control, and easier setup, Benshaw soft starters help provide practical solutions for industrial motor starting and protection.
