I need/want to put a soft start on this 3phase 400v 4.5a pump motor. (edm runs off 400v boost transformer) Currently it draws too much startup current when it switches on the high pressure flushing pump and it occasionally trips out the EDM control safety and it all reboots.
That sucks.
the problem wasnt a problem for a while... now it is again..and I am a bit scared to mess with it.
I think I want to install this 3kw in place of the contactor I have now.... is it just that simple?

motor info
60hz
P2 2.2kw
I~ 4.65 @380v
Imax 5.15 @380v
would seem a 5amp 1hp amp soft start unit would do but the motor also says 2.2kw so here I am a a 3kw soft start
