  • Page 5: Technical Data

    5 • Te chnica l Da ta TECHNICAL DATA Introduction The RVS-DX is a third generation, highly sophisticated and reliable starter designed for use with standard three-phase, three-wire, squirrel cage, induction motors. It provides the best method of reducing current and torque during motor starting. The RVS-DX starts the motor by supplying a slowly increasing voltage, providing soft start and smooth acceleration, while drawing the minimum current necessary to start the motor.
