The ATS22D17Q is part of Schneider Electric’s Altistart 22 soft starter range, designed for controlled motor starting and stopping in small to medium industrial applications. It uses voltage ramp technology combined with current limitation to reduce inrush current and minimize mechanical stress during startup.
The unit integrates SCR-based control with an internal bypass system, allowing efficient thermal performance once the motor reaches operating speed. Its compact form factor makes it suitable for space-constrained control panels and light industrial machinery where reliable motor control is required without complex configuration.
Although widely used in OEM equipment and legacy installations, newer Schneider soft starter platforms are recommended for modern system upgrades.
ATS22D25Q – Common upgrade choice for higher load systems
ATS22D32Q – Widely used in mid-range industrial automation
ATS130D12N4 – Modern replacement for compact motor control applications
Applications
