About this product
This Shihlin Magnetic Starter Control is designed for 7.5 HP three-phase air compressor motors operating at 460VAC. It features a NEMA style design with an electronic overload, providing adjustable amp ratings from 12-18 Amps for precise motor protection. The unit is specifically designed for three-phase compressor applications, ensuring reliable and safe operation. A California Prop 65 warning is included due to the presence of specific chemicals.
Our take
This Shihlin magnetic starter is a great match for anyone running a 7.5 HP three-phase air compressor motor on a 460VAC supply. The adjustable 12-18 Amp electronic overload is a key feature, allowing for very precise calibration to protect your motor effectively against overcurrents. This level of adjustability is often better than fixed overloads. The NEMA style is a common industrial standard, so it should integrate well into many setups. Just ensure your enclosure is compatible. It's purpose-built for three-phase compressors, which is reassuring. However, like many industrial components, it comes with a California Prop 65 warning.
