Why Choose the Lovato M1R01812400B1 Direct-On-Line Starter?
The Lovato M1R01812400B1 is an enclosed direct-on-line motor starter designed to switch and protect three-phase motors in industrial machinery and automation systems. It combines a Lovato BF1810A contactor with an RF381800 thermal overload relay inside a robust M1RA enclosure.
This integrated configuration simplifies motor-control installation by bringing the contactor, adjustable overload protection and enclosure together in one assembly. A front-mounted reset pushbutton enables the thermal overload relay to be reset without opening the enclosure, supporting convenient operation and maintenance.
With an adjustable overload range of 13–18 A, an IEC operational current rating of 18 A and a motor rating of 7.5 kW at up to 440 V, the M1R01812400B1 is suitable for demanding motor-starting applications. Its IP65 enclosure protects the internal components against dust and water jets.

Reliable Motor Starting and Overload Protection
A direct-on-line starter connects a motor directly to its electrical supply through a contactor, providing straightforward full-voltage starting. The integrated thermal overload relay monitors motor current and trips the control circuit if a sustained overload condition occurs.
The M1R01812400B1 combines switching, overload protection and environmental protection within one enclosed assembly. Its adjustable relay allows the protection setting to be matched to the connected motor’s rated current within the specified 13–18 A range.
