General information and technical data:
Compressor Soft Starters of the CSS-Series are used to limit
1-phase compressors. For additional start torque a built

Restarts are delayed and indicated by a blinking greed LED. In case
of alarm a signal is indicated by the red LED. The alarm relay will be activated.
Soft starters are released for use with many compressors. (See list Fig.3)

• Unauthorised opening of the Soft Starter will void warranty.
• Switch off all voltages / currents before connecting wiring
• Comply with local electrical regulations when wiring.
• Do not exceed operating temperature.
• Do not operate system before all cable connections are completed.
Setting:
• No setting required. The Soft Starters automatically limit
based on the connected compressor size. Several consecutive starts are required
