SSH6T Soft Start for Up to 6‑Ton Unit
Soft‑start module designed for residential, light commercial, and mid‑size HVAC systems up to 6 tons. Gradually ramps compressor startup current to reduce inrush amperage, minimize light flicker, and help prevent nuisance breaker trips. Compatible with single‑phase 208–240VAC air conditioners and heat pumps using scroll or reciprocating compressors. Ideal for applications with limited electrical capacity, generator operation, or where smoother, quieter compressor engagement is desired. Includes mounting hardware and pre‑terminated leads for simplified installation.
