037N0037

Product Description:

The 037N0037 soft starter from Danfoss sits in the MCD Soft Starters series and is made for tasks that want compact controls without cutting corners on strength. Module width comes in at 45 mm, so slipping it into smaller panels or where space feels tight works fine. For the main job, it handles operational voltage that runs from 208–240 V AC, fitting industrial circuits that move medium-power loads. An IP20 protection rating covers the unit, keeping fingers and some debris away from the live pieces on the inside. For current, this starter is good for 15 amps max, enough to cover plenty of regular automated machines or pumps.

The soft starter lets the user pick ramp-up and ramp-down times, each adjustable between 0 to 10 seconds. That setup comes in handy when motors need smoother starts or stops, stopping quick spikes in current or sudden equipment shakes. For folks looking after cooling, the design goes with natural convection, so there’s no need for extra cooling fans that might need more servicing. The initial torque can get dialed up anywhere from 0 to 85%, making it useful when different loads ask for different push-offs at the beginning. Control voltage on the unit ranges wide—24–480 V AC/DC—which keeps options open for wiring or when connecting with odd plant voltages.

For power specs past current and voltage, max motor power sits at 4.0 kW (5.5 HP). This amount covers smaller machines in bottling lines, material sorters, or conveyors that stay busy most of the day. Noise and wear on motors drop off since ramps and torque get tuned by job instead of staying fixed. A maximum leakage current of 5 mA signals very little lost to stray paths, which helps with plant safety and ticks some compliance boxes for automation engineers.
