The IMO MU25A25 is a high-performance manual motor starter designed to provide reliable motor isolation, switching and overload protection for industrial automation and motor control systems. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, this compact starter combines thermal and magnetic motor protection within a durable industrial enclosure suitable for demanding industrial environments.
Part of the trusted IMO MU25A manual motor starter series, the MU25A25 is engineered to protect three-phase motors against overload and short-circuit conditions while providing safe manual switching and local isolation. Its DIN rail mountable design makes it ideal for automation panels, motor control centres and OEM machinery installations where compact and reliable motor protection are essential.
With an adjustable thermal setting range of 20 to 25 A, the IMO MU25A25 is ideally suited to protecting industrial motors used in conveyors, pumps, compressors, fans and process machinery. The integrated rotary handle enables safe local motor isolation and manual control directly from the panel front.
