Soft Starter VersiStart II plus… compared to simple standard-starters

The comparison shows the most important differences between a modern soft starter with separate 24V DC control voltage, UL approval, and wide voltage range (200-480V AC) compared to classic devices. The use of this advanced solution is particularly advantageous for global mechanical engineering, plant export, and automation.

Soft starter VersiStart II plus

1. Mains voltage: (wide voltage range) 200-480V AC ±10%
2. Control voltage: separate 24 V DC (galvanically isolated)
3. UL approval: certified for the US market + Canada
4. Global: worldwide use thanks to wide voltage range
5. Starts/h: double the switching frequency compared to the competition
6. Additional: even more starts possible with optional fan

Standard soft starter

1. Mains voltage: 400 V AC ±10 % other voltages usually require special device
2. Control voltage: no separate control voltage
3. UL approval: often only CE
4. Global: limited
5. Starts/h: significantly lower switching frequency
6. Additional: even more starts not possible

Why VersiStart II plus ...?

The soft starter with 24 V DC control, UL certification, and a large nominal voltage range offers decisive advantages in terms of performance, controllability, and globality. This starter is technically superior to classic soft starters, especially in modern/automated systems.
