1.4.1 Starting Current
The AS01, AS02 and AS03 air source heat pump units are all inverter driven. This means they
ramp up slowly and therefore do not require a large starting current which is required with fixed
speed units. In the majority of situations the starting current will be less than 1Amp. The
starting current will also always be below the rated current of the unit. Below is the typical
starting profile showing the compressor frequency (left side scale) and current draw (right side
scale) from off to typical running speed.
