Why Choose the Lovato YD15400 Star Delta Starter?

The Lovato YD15400 is a robust enclosed star delta motor starter designed to provide reliable reduced-voltage starting for three-phase induction motors. Manufactured by Lovato Electric, this starter is engineered to minimise inrush current during motor start-up while reducing mechanical stress on motors and driven equipment.

Designed for industrial applications, the YD15400 offers dependable motor starting performance for pumps, compressors, conveyors, fans and other heavy-duty machinery. Its enclosed construction provides added protection for internal components, making it suitable for installation in a wide range of industrial environments.

With a 15 kW (20 HP) motor rating, 400 V AC coil voltage and a 28 A current rating, the Lovato YD15400 is an ideal solution for applications requiring controlled motor acceleration and dependable long-term operation. Although this model has been discontinued, it remains widely referenced for maintenance, servicing and replacement purposes.
