Samusco Electric

Samusco is a global manufacturer of Electronic Centrifugal Switches for electric motors. An electronic centrifugal switch is a solid state starter switch that duplicates the function of a mechanical centrifugal switch for engaging and disconnecting the start windings in single phase induction motors. Samusco uses electronic circuitry rather than mechanical force to control the switch’s function.A Samusco electronic centrifugal switch looks at the variation in motor starting torque. Speed voltage induced in a start winding is monitored and a microcontroller calculates a motor speed‐torque curve to interrupt the start winding current at the optimal point.Samusco electronic centrifugal switches are sealed in epoxy, they mount independent of the motor shaft either on the inside or outside of the motor housing and with an easy selection of universal models Samusco electronic centrifugal switches support a wide range of single phase induction motors.
