Motor Starters

Required by NEC on most compressors, recommended for every compressor!

General Air Products’ IEC Line Starter is a rugged, industrial designed, full voltage, non-reversing IEC Rated overload protector.

These line starters provide protection to motor windings from harmful currents and result and temperature rise that may be caused by either overloading the motor, sustained low line voltage, or locked rotor.

We strongly recommend that a line starter accompany every General Air Products’ air compressor.
