TSE Circuit for Soft Starter

The TSE circuit is a type of soft starter circuit that uses thyristors to control the starting current of an electric motor. It provides a gradual increase in voltage and current, reducing the stress on the motor and the power supply during startup.

Here are some key features of the TSE circuit:

• Gradual start-up: The TSE circuit allows for a smooth and gradual increase in motor speed and torque, minimizing mechanical stress and wear on the equipment.
• Reduced starting current: By controlling the voltage applied to the motor, the TSE circuit significantly reduces the initial surge of current during startup.
• Improved power factor: The TSE circuit helps improve the power factor by reducing harmonics in the current waveform.
• Protection against overloads and short circuits: The circuit incorporates protection mechanisms to safeguard the motor and the power supply from overloads and short circuits.
