Why Choose the Lovato ME070FD024 Electronic DOL Starter?

The Lovato ME070FD024 is a compact and reliable electronic direct-on-line (DOL) motor starter designed for starting and protecting three-phase motors in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the Lovato ME electronic motor starter series, it combines electronic motor switching with integrated thermal motor protection in a space-saving DIN-rail-mounted device.

The ME070FD024 provides a rated operational current of 7 A for AC-3 and AC-53a applications, with an adjustable thermal trip range of 1.5–7 A. Integrated class 10A thermal protection helps protect the connected motor against overload conditions while reducing the need for separate motor protection components.

Designed for motor circuits with an operational voltage of 40–500 V AC, the starter uses a 24 V DC auxiliary and control supply. At 400 V, it is suitable for motors up to approximately 3 kW, making it a practical solution for conveyors, pumps, fans and other automated machinery.
