Hello.
I recently bought a softstarter, the model is ATS01N109FT
I wish to connect it to a submersible pump to limit the inrush current drawn when started so I can connect it to an inverter.
Since the submersible pump is controlled by a pressure switch, I want to connect the line from it to the ATS, and the output from the ATS to the pump.
from the diagram I'm reading, the ATS wants another start control using the CL1/0 and CL2 pins.
Do I have to use it?
If I remove the command part, will it be able to run automatically with just input and output?
If I really have to use Cl1/0 CL2, can I run the wires from the pressure switch to Cl1/0 Cl2, and the same line to L1 L3? (single phase motor).
So when energy starts, it will go both to CL1/0 CL2 and L1 L3 in the same time.
Is this a good way to do it?
Is there an easier way to achieve what I need?
Start and stop is done by pressure switch. How should I go about doing this?
Thank you very much and sorry of the terms are not in good english, is't not my main language.

Hello,
I guess the electrical connections you use is as the drawing joined. If I understand well, you could leave the starter as it is and connect your pressure contact on S2 push button place, it would answer your need. Do not forget to check all voltage you have on mains which you need on motor side
