Starters & Enclosed Products

KWIKstarters

Order your KWIKstarter Pre-Assembled or Build it from Stock

Sprecher + Schuh offers a broad selection of pre-assembled or "build-from-stock" starters housed in either a CUL-approved Type 1, 12K enclosure or a UL-Approved Type 4, 4X, 12 enclosure. Built for convenience, space savings and economy, KWIKstarters are efficiently designed to use stock CA7 contactors and CT7K thermal overload relays or the advanced CEP7 solid state overload. Contactor and overload are either prewired and pre-mounted onto the enclosure's built-in DIN-rail or may be ordered as separate components. Ample knockouts and open terminals guarantee quick, no fuss wiring.

Sized for most industrial applications

KWIKstarters control motors up to 25HP @ 460V (30HP @ 575V) in an enclosure measuring only 187 x 90mm (7-3/8" x 3-1/2"). This covers over 85% of industrial motor control applications in a very compact package that can be mounted adjacent to or directly on equipment.

Designed for simplicity

The enclosure for the KWIKstarter is designed for simplicity. The START button mechanically interfaces with a special side mounted N.O. auxiliary (Cat.# CA7-PA-H10) with minimal wiring. The STOP button also mechanically interfaces with the N.C. contact on the overload relay, providing STOP and RESET functions with no additional wiring.

For maximum flexibility, build it yourself!

For further economy, KWIKstarters may be assembled from stocked components. Just grab a CA7 contactor and either a CT7K or CEP7 overload relay of your choice and snap them into the enclosure. Minimal wiring is required and assembly can typically be completed in minutes.
