Why Choose the Lovato M2P02512230B3 Direct-On-Line Starter?

The Lovato M2P02512230B3 is an enclosed direct-on-line motor starter designed for starting, stopping and protecting three-phase motors in industrial machinery and equipment. It combines a Lovato BF2510A contactor, an RF382500 thermal overload relay and START and STOP/RESET pushbuttons in a non-metallic enclosure.

Rated for an IEC operating current of 25 A and motor power of 11 kW at 400 V, the starter is suitable for motors requiring an adjustable overload range of 20–25 A. The integrated thermal relay helps protect the connected motor against sustained overload conditions.

The M2P02512230B3 features a 230 V AC, 50/60 Hz contactor coil and an IP65 enclosure that protects its internal components against dust and water jets. Its enclosed format and integrated controls make it suitable for convenient local operation in demanding industrial environments.

Key Advantages

  • Complete enclosed direct-on-line motor starter for local motor control.
  • 25 A IEC operating current and 11 kW rating at 400 V.
  • Integrated 20–25 A adjustable thermal overload relay.
  • 230 V AC, 50/60 Hz contactor coil for compatible control circuits.
  • Integrated START and STOP/RESET pushbuttons simplify operation.
  • IP65 non-metallic enclosure for dusty or wet industrial environments.

Key Features

Reliable Motor Control and Overload Protection

A direct-on-line starter connects a motor directly to the electrical supply through a contactor, providing a simple and dependable method of starting and stopping compatible motors. The M2P02512230B3 places the contactor, thermal overload relay and operator controls inside a protected enclosure for convenient local operation.

The integrated RF382500 thermal overload relay can be adjusted between 20 A and 25 A to suit the connected motor’s rated current. When a sustained overload is detected, the relay trips the starter to help prevent overheating and damage to the motor.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial pumps and circulation systems.
  • Fans, blowers and ventilation equipment.
  • Conveyors and material-handling machinery.
  • Compressors and workshop equipment.
  • Mixers and processing machinery.
  • Machine tools and general industrial motor control.
