Description
Product Overview
The high voltage soft start resistor is a vital component for managing inrush current during inverter and power supply startup. By gradually charging capacitors, it helps reduce electrical stress and protects sensitive components from sudden surges. As a result, overall system stability improves, and the lifespan of key devices is extended. Moreover, the resistor’s non-inductive construction makes it highly suitable for high-speed switching and pulse load applications in industrial systems.

Why Use High Voltage Soft Start Resistors?
Inrush Current Control for Safer Startups
Protects converters, rectifiers, and IGBTs During initial power-on, inverters and power supplies experience high inrush current. However, soft start resistors manage this current by gradually charging the input capacitors, thereby preventing damage and reducing startup noise.
