[0033] The voltage detection module 3 is used to detect the voltage output by the power supply module 1 and output a voltage detection signal; the control module 2 is connected to the voltage detection module 3 to receive the voltage detection signal, and when the value reflected by the voltage detection signal reaches the voltage preset value, the control signal is output; the voltage regulating module 4 is connected to the control module 2 to receive the control signal, and the voltage regulating module 4 controls the voltage input to the air compressor after receiving the control signal. In the embodiment of the present application, the voltage detection module 3 adopts a voltage sensor, the control module 2 adopts a PLC controller or a single-chip microcomputer, and the voltage regulating module 4 adopts a three-phase reverse parallel thyristor.

At the same time, through the precise control of the control module 2, the maximum values of the starting torque and the starting current can be set according to the load conditions to achieve the best starting effect. In the embodiment of the present application, the voltage preset value is set according to the actual situation.
