ELLI500

IPSES Srl - ELLI500

ELLI500 is a device designed for inrush current limitation, installable between the power switch and the load to prevent both current surges and accidental tripping of circuit breakers.

When connected to a 230 VAC supply, it can deliver up to 40 A output or 20 A continuous (depending on the model) with significantly reduced heat dissipation compared to other solutions.

ELLI500 is engineered to ensure maximum efficiency and safety in managing current transients, offering a robust and flexible solution for industrial and professional applications. Thanks to TRIAC-based technology, the device provides a smooth and controlled start-up, reducing electrical stress and improving component protection. Its modular architecture and customization options make it ideal for complex scenarios where reliability and precision are essential.

Main Advantages:

  • Gradual load insertion before the activation of the bypass relay.
  • Reduction of current peak during relay activation.
  • Flexibility in setting timing and phase during the start-up transient.
  • Adaptability to loads with hysteresis cycles and strong saturation.

Typical Applications:

  • Transformers
  • Inductive loads
  • Electric motors
  • Test laboratories
