Starters (Only used when basic motor control Is required)
- Low Cost
- No Speed Control
- Minimal Monitoring
- Highest Motor Damage and Wear
- Least Efficient
- Highest operating costs
Soft Starter (same functionality as a starter but will protect the motor from high spikes of energy from damaging it. Applications include pumping systems)
- More Expensive
- Start/Stop Speed Control
- Limited Monitoring
- Moderate Motor Damage and Wear
- Moderate Efficiency
- Moderate Operating Costs
VFD (Applications where full speed control and monitoring over the motor is required. VFD’s also help with energy saving costs)
- Most Expensive
- Full Motor Speed and Control
- Full Monitoring
- Minimal Motor Damage and wear
- Most Efficient
- Lowest Operating Costs
