Applications & compatibility

The ATS48C32Y is suitable for a wide range of heavy-duty applications where motor starting torque and current control are critical. This includes pump control systems, fan drives, conveyor systems, and compressors in industries such as water treatment, material handling, and general manufacturing. Its ability to manage high starting currents makes it ideal for systems with limited power supply capacity or where mechanical shock must be minimized.
