Schneider Electric ATS130 Soft Starters — Compact OEM Ranges for Basic Machinery

The Schneider Electric Altistart 130 (ATS130) soft starter range is engineered specifically for compact OEM machinery and light industrial drives rated from 0.37 to 15 kW. This ultra-compact soft starter focuses on reducing mechanical shock and startup stresses on simple systems. Featuring a built-in bypass contactor and a clean analog potentiometer setup panel, the ATS130 provides fast, hassle-free B2B commissioning without complex software programming.

Typical Applications for Schneider ATS130

• HVAC Ventilation Utility Fans: Controls starting currents to protect impellers, drive belts, and keyways from torque stresses.
• Small Water Inline Pumps: Soft acceleration gently builds fluid pressure, minimizing immediate line stresses.
• Packaging Machinery and Small Conveyors: Gentle starting avoids dynamic product movement or tipping on transport belts.

What Differentiates Schneider ATS130 from Competitors

A key mechanical advantage of the Altistart 130 over the Siemens 3RW30 is the addition of a regulated soft stop ramp, extending its applicability to small pumping units.

When Schneider ATS130 is NOT Suitable

• For applications demanding integrated electronic motor overload protection — select the Schneider ATS22 range.
• For severe heavy-duty starting profiles with high-power motors above 15 kW — choose Schneider ATS48 or ATS480.

Our Assembly Recommendations

The ATS130 represents a highly reliable and economical choice for B2B machine builders. It features simple DIN-rail mounting. To ensure complete thermal and short-circuit motor protection, we strongly recommend pairing it with a Schneider Electric TeSys GV2 manual motor circuit breaker.
