Micro-Air 364 RV EasyStart Roof Top Air Conditioner Soft Starter

The Micro-Air 364 RV EasyStart is a custom-developed soft starter specifically designed for single-phase motors found in RV air conditioners, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. With its unique 4-part start ramp sequence, this soft starter automatically adjusts and self-optimizes, resulting in the lowest possible start-up current.

The primary advantage of an RV soft starter is its ability to reduce the power surge or inrush current that occurs when the air conditioner's compressor motor starts. The EasyStart can deliver 65-75% start current reduction as compared to a compressor's LRA (locked-rotor amperage). By employing a controlled start ramp sequence and optimizing the motor's startup, the soft starter minimizes the initial power surge. This reduction in power surge helps prevent voltage drops, circuit overloads, and potential damage to the electrical system of the RV. It also alleviates strain on components such as capacitors and relays, extending their lifespan and reducing the likelihood of premature failures.

An RV soft starter enables your air conditioner to operate more effectively on limited power sources such as generators, inverters, or limited utility power. It achieves this by lowering the start-up current required by the compressor motor. By reducing the power demand during startup, the soft starter allows your air conditioner to function even in scenarios where the power supply may be constrained. This feature is particularly valuable when camping in remote areas or during situations where traditional power outlets are not readily available.

Another significant benefit of an RV soft starter is improved energy efficiency. By reducing the start-up current, the soft starter helps minimize the overall power consumption of the air conditioning system. This not only results in potential energy savings but also reduces the strain on the RV's electrical system, allowing other appliances to operate more efficiently. Additionally, the soft starter's optimized startup sequence ensures a smooth and controlled acceleration of the compressor motor, optimizing its performance and further contributing to energy efficiency.
