On 460 V supply it delivers 40 hp standard or 30 hp severe; at 575 V it handles 50 hp standard or 40 hp severe. The dual rating means the same unit covers a range of motor frames without oversizing for the hardest start. ## AC-53A utilisation and what it means for the start profile Rated AC-53A per IEC 60947-4-2, the standard that governs soft starters and their associated bypass contactors. AC-53A covers semiconductor motor starters with a bypass contactor — the thyristors handle the ramp-up, then the bypass closes to carry the running current without semiconductor losses. The rating confirms the unit is designed for that hybrid topology, not for continuous thyristor conduction. ## Connection topology and protection suite Wires in-line on the motor supply or in the delta loop — the six-wire delta connection halves the current through each thyristor pair, useful on larger motors where the in-line current would push the frame size up. Built-in protection covers phase failure, motor thermal overload, and starter thermal protection, so no separate overload relay is needed for most installations. ## Communication and control interface An RS485 multidrop port with Modbus protocol, selectable to 4800, 9600, or 19200 bps via an RJ45 connector — standard for PLC integration without an extra gateway. Five digital inputs (Stop, Run, LI3, LI4, PTC) and two logic outputs plus three relay outputs give enough I/O for basic start/stop, fault signalling, and motor thermal protection without a separate control module.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric ATS48D62YS316 Soft Starter, 30 kW 400 V","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric ATS48D62YS316 Altistart 48 soft starter, 30 kW at 400 V standard duty, AC-53A utilisation category.
