Schneider Electric Altistart (ATS) family of Soft Starters is the industry benchmark for controlling the acceleration and deceleration of three-phase asynchronous motors. Designed to replace simple Star-Delta or Direct-Online (DOL) starters, these devices eliminate mechanical shock, reduce starting current spikes, and extend the lifespan of your mechanical assets (gears, belts, and couplings).
From simple low-power machinery to complex, heavy-duty industrial processes, the Altistart range offers a solution for every motor control need. They are renowned for their Built-in Bypass technology (available in most ranges), which reduces heat generation and panel size, and their advanced motor protection algorithms.
Series Selection Guide:1. Altistart 01 (ATS01) – "The Compact Simple Start"
-
Range: 0.37 kW to 15 kW.
-
Best For: Small machinery, conveyors, pumps, and fans.
-
Key Features: Ultra-compact width (starting at 22.5mm), simple DIN rail mounting, and easy "plug-and-play" setup. It limits starting torque to prevent mechanical jolts.
2. Altistart 22 (ATS22) – "The Standard Pump & Fan Specialist"
-
Range: 4 kW to 400 kW.
-
Best For: Infrastructure, Water/Wastewater (Pumps), HVAC (Fans), and standard conveyors.
-
Key Features: Built-in Bypass Contactor (standard), 3-phase control, conformal coating for harsh environments, and dedicated pump control algorithms to prevent water hammer.
3. Altistart 480 (ATS480) – "The High-Performance Process Drive"
-
Range: 4 kW to 900 kW (Successor to the legendary ATS48).
-
Best For: Heavy industry, Oil & Gas, Mining, and critical processes.
-
Key Features: Advanced Torque Control (TCS), cybersecurity features, seamless integration with EcoStruxure automation, and robust handling of high-inertia loads.
Common Features Across the Range:
-
Torque Control: Patented TCS (Torque Control System) ensures linear acceleration regardless of motor load.
-
Integrated Bypass: Reduces heat dissipation and eliminates the need for external bypass contactors (ATS22/ATS480).
-
Motor Protection: Comprehensive thermal protection, phase loss detection, and underload/overload monitoring.
-
Energy Efficiency: Reduces inrush currents, lowering peak energy demand charges.
-
Communication: Modbus serial connectivity (standard or optional depending on model) for remote monitoring.
Target Applications:
-
Pumps: Elimination of pressure surges and water hammer effects.
-
Fans: Smooth starting prevents belt slippage and reduces stress.
-
Conveyors: Prevents product toppling or damage during start/stop.
-
Compressors: Reduces current peaks on the mains grid.

Schneider Electric ATS22C11Q is a robust Soft Starter from the Altistart 22 (ATS22) series, designed for the controlled starting and stopping of three-phase asynchronous motors. This unit is rated for motors up to 55 kW (at 400V) or 110 A, making it an excellent choice for standard industrial infrastructure and pumping applications.
A key feature of the ATS22 series is the Built-in Bypass Contactor. Once the motor reaches full speed, the soft starter automatically bypasses the power electronics. This significantly reduces heat generation, eliminates the need for external bypass components, and shrinks the overall footprint in your electrical panel. It provides complete motor protection, including thermal overload, phase failure, and under-load monitoring.
