CI-tronic™ single-phase compressor soft starter,
Type TCI 25C
The TCI 25C soft starter is designed for soft
starting of single-phase compressors. During
start the TCI 25C will gradually ramp-up the
motor voltage to full line voltage thus reducing
the starting current peak.
Features • Easy installation between normal motor starter
and motor
• LED status indication
• Unlimited start/stop operation per hour
• DIN rail mountable
• Starting time max. 0,5 seconds
• Suitable for 50/60 Hz
• EN 60947-4-2
• CE, EAC, LLC CDC TYSK

As soon as the TCI 25C is connected to mains
voltage a motor soft start is performed.
The balanced ramp-up time and starting voltage
TCI 25C can be used for single phase motors
with and without a start capacitor - see wiring
examples.
(initial torque) ensures a fast and reliable start.
