- Soft start reduces inrush current on 12 A motor loads
- Integrated bypass cuts heat and saves panel space
- 5 hp rating at 460-480 V AC three-phase
- 24 V DC control voltage suits standard PLC outputs
- IP20 NEMA 1 enclosure protects against solid objects
Application fit
The Schneider Electric ATS01N212RT is a soft starter with integral bypass rated for 12 A output at 460 to 480 V AC three-phase. It suits motors up to 7.5 hp in industrial and commercial installations where controlled starting reduces mechanical stress and current inrush. The 24 V DC control voltage allows integration with standard PLC and relay logic. Buyers needing higher current ratings or different voltage classes should select another model.
Installation checks
Verify that the supply is a three-phase 460 to 480 V AC source and that the motor full-load current does not exceed 12 A. Confirm the control circuit can provide 24 V DC for the starter coil. The unit carries an IP20 and NEMA 1 rating, so it must be mounted inside a suitable enclosure. Ensure wiring, over-current protection and earthing meet local electrical codes before energising.
Build and daily use
The housing meets IP20 and NEMA 1 ingress protection, intended for indoor cabinet mounting. Integrated bypass contacts reduce heating during continuous run, so the starter runs cooler after the motor reaches speed. Terminals accept standard cable sizes for 12 A circuits, and the compact footprint allows dense panel layouts. Regular visual inspection of connections and enclosure seals maintains reliable operation.

Questions about this item
Does the Schneider Electric ATS01N212RT soft starter include the 24V DC control supply or must it be purchased separately?
The unit requires a separate 24V DC control voltage source; it is not included in the box.
Which motor rating matches the 12 A output current version of this soft starter?
This model is rated for 7.5 hp at three-phase 460-480V AC, matching the 12 A output current.
What does the 12 A rating mean when the soft starter is installed in a 460-480V AC three-phase circuit?
It indicates the maximum continuous output current the device can deliver to the motor at the stated voltage range.
