Note
The torque generated in the motor and controlled by the soft starter can at no
time be higher than the value of a similar direct start at the same speed.

Fig. 6-3: Function principle of torque control
Torque control is suitable for all applications, especially in cases where a
homogeneous and smooth run-up is required. For machines requiring a
breakaway pulse (inverse load response, e.g. in mills or crushers), the
breakaway pulse must be set as described in Chapter 6.2.3 "Breakaway Pulse in
Combination with Voltage Ramp or Torque Control Starting Mode". The "Torque
control+current limiting (M+current limiting)" starting mode is recommended for
heavy starting (refer to Chapter 6.2.4 "Current Limiting in Combination with
Voltage Ramp or Torque Control Starting Mode").
