Schneider Electric ATS490 Soft Starters — Customized High-End Industrial Range
The Schneider Electric Altistart 490 (ATS490) soft starter series is a specialized, process-oriented industrial lineup tailored for B2B system integrators and custom OEM panel building, covering capacities from 15 to 630 kW. Utilizing a heavy-duty three-phase thyristor control platform, the ATS490 features enhanced connectivity and highly accurate startup curve profiling, making it an excellent match for demanding engineering layouts.
Typical Applications for Schneider ATS490
Heavy-Duty Industrial Presses and Metal Stamping: Delivers highly consistent torque profiles to overcome heavy static friction and initial mechanical load resistance.
High-Capacity Fan Impellers and Mining Mills: Fine-tuned starting current limits prevent electric grid overload during prolonged startups.
Process Pumping Networks: On-board TCS torque control ensures shock-free pump starting and stopping.

By providing exceptionally high torque and current profiling adjustments, the ATS490 series offers B2B panel builders superior precision compared to standard industrial ranges.
When Schneider ATS490 is NOT Suitable
For simple HVAC fan starters where a standard class starter is more than sufficient — select the cost-effective Schneider ATS22 series.
If your project layout strictly demands an integrated bypass contactor located inside the starter housing — choose Danfoss MCD 500.
Our Engineering Integration Recommendations
The Altistart 490 series represents an outstanding and reliable choice for complex automation networks. Our panel design team recommends wiring the ATS490 with external TeSys bypass contactors and circuit breakers from Schneider Electric, providing a fully coordinated heavy-duty assembly.
Для своєї невеличкої майстерні шукав щось надійне для двигуна 2.2 кВт, однофазного. Взяв цей Schneider, бо чув багато хорошого про їхню техніку. Мені треба було, щоб верстат не так сильно стартував, іноді оберти підрегулювати. З цим частотником отримав і плавний старт, і можливість працювати на різних швидкостях. Для мене це супер, бо тепер можу підлаштувати під різні задачі. Збірка якісна, видно, що не китайський ноунейм. Підключив сам, нічого складного. Працює стабільно, без проблем. За таку ціну очікував хорошої якості, і вона тут є.
