ITC is offering the new Ex9QR5 line of Soft Starters (Solid State Reduced Voltage Starters or SSRVs) from NOARK.
Soft starters offer ramping up the voltage applied to the windings of a three-phase motor during the start-up phase, in order to prevent the well-known detrimental electrical and mechanical effects which occur in case of a direct start (high in-rush current and starting torque, stress on mechanical components, etc...).
The Ex9QR5 devices offer several programmable modes of operation, plus a number of protection functions, including phase loss or unbalance, overload, over- and under-voltage, locked rotor, starter timing, and additional features.

Starting a 3-phase motor presents several problems, well known by designers and users of this type of equipment. 
Direct starting an AC motor will cause inrush current frequently higher than 5 times full-load current (FLA); the resulting high torque may produce mechanical stress on the equipment connected; and, last but not least, users may incur penalties from their Utility, due to consequences of the temporary high inrush current on the network.
The following is a compact and simplified exposition of the methods used to start a three-phase electric motors. The choice of these methods depends on the need to minimize the effects mentioned above – effects which are, in turn, depending also on the power rating of the motor.
