Allen-Bradley SMC Dialog Plus Series

The SMC Dialog Plus series is a line of solid-state soft starters from Allen-Bradley, designed to provide smooth motor acceleration and deceleration while reducing inrush current and mechanical stress. These starters are ideal for applications where full-speed operation is required but variable speed control is unnecessary, such as pumps, conveyors, compressors, and fans. With adjustable starting and stopping profiles, the SMC Dialog Plus helps extend motor life, reduce wear on mechanical components, and minimize electrical disturbances.

Available in current ratings up to 1000A and supporting 200V to 600V AC systems, these starters feature built-in motor protection, phase loss detection, and overload safeguards. They also offer seamless integration into industrial networks with optional DeviceNet, ControlNet, and RS-485 communication modules, making them a versatile and cost-effective alternative to traditional across-the-line starters.
