Our take
This uxcell magnetic motor starter is a budget-friendly option for controlling 7.5HP, 380V motors in an air compressor setup. The 5.5KW rating aligns well with that horsepower, making it suitable for industrial or larger workshop applications. It’s a definite purpose starter, meaning it's built for specific motor types and loads, which can be advantageous for reliability. The light net weight of 1.247 pounds suggests it won't add significant bulk to your system. However, the lack of detailed specifications beyond power and voltage means you'll need to verify its exact overload protection range and other features meet your specific needs. The California Prop 65 warning is also something to consider.
