A state of the art starting hub suitable for most makes and models of synchronous machines. The Quartzelec hub can be supplied and fitted on new plant, but can just as easily be retrofitted to existing machines where components have become obsolete.

With a high degree of reliability and flexibility, the Quartzelec Starting Hub is suitable for rotating speeds up to 1800rpm +25% overspeed, provides over 500,000 hours of service and can be used on motors up to 35 MW.

Enhanced performance is achieved through the incorporated starting resistor which improves starting torque and reduces oscillating torques.
