EasyStart™ 368 Soft Starter for AC Units 19K to 42K 230V - ASY-368-X48 Blue
EasyStart by Micro-Air is the most effective way to reduce current draw of marine air conditioners or refrigerators. It was designed with a 4-part start ramp sequence that is self-optimizing, resulting in the lowest possible start-up current. It is compatible with all boat air conditioning brands like Dometic, Webasto, Cruisair, Marine Air, etc. EasyStart can deliver a start current reduction of up to 75% of a compressor's LRA (locked-rotor amperage) allowing your marine air conditioner to work in situations where it otherwise would not have functioned.
Features:
Sart-Up Algorithm for Start Surge Reduction
- Lab tested CE Compliance
- Average start surge reduction to 65%
- Sophisticated, auto-learned 4-part start-up algorithm
- one time learning algorithm for better shore power/generator transitions.
- Individually optimized profiles for 50Hz and 60Hz
- Low sensitivity to momentary voltage deeps during start-up
- Auto-bleed of run cap voltage and compressor energy during shutdown
- Reliably starts any 115V compressor on a Honda EU2000i in ECO Mode.

Drops inrush amps dramatically
Expensive but works as advertised. Dropped 48K unit from 68.6 amps down to 34.7 amps at startup(using Fluke clamp on ammeter) after the 5 learning starts on utility power. Run amps are not altered at about 17.2 amps. If your lights blink when the AC comes on or you're trying to run on backup/generator power, this will help you out.
