Integral Replaced by Tesys U
The Integral 18 and 32 series starters have been discontinued. They have been replaced by the Tesys U series.
The old Integral and the current range Tesys U serve similar purposes but they are very different devices.
- Integral - was very much "traditional" and conventional technology.
- Tesys U - employs different, more modern and efficient structures and technology, therefore there is no compatibility or interchangeability between any of the parts. This means that to replace any part of the Integral starter will require changing the complete unit for a Tesys U. As there are no directly equivalent
There are 4 levels of control unit (2) with varying levels of functionality, Standard (LUCA) Advanced (LUCB, LUCC and LUCD) and Multifunction (LUCM) and also a Magnetic only version (LUCL).
When replacing Integral it is probably best to go with the Advanced unit (LUCB****) as this gives the optimum level of simplicity and cost combined with flexibility to add additional modules to replicate some of the more complex functions possible with Integral.
Check information, download datasheets and catalogues about the Tesys U and use the Tesys U configurator tool.
