Why Choose the Lovato YD30400 Star Delta Starter?

The Lovato YD30400 is a heavy-duty enclosed star delta motor starter designed for the reliable reduced-voltage starting of three-phase induction motors. Manufactured by Lovato Electric, this industrial starter helps minimise motor inrush current during start-up, reducing electrical stress on the supply network while extending the service life of motors and connected machinery.

Engineered for demanding industrial environments, the YD30400 features a durable IP65 insulated enclosure with integrated start and stop controls. It is an ideal solution for machine builders, panel manufacturers and maintenance engineers requiring dependable motor control for pumps, compressors, conveyors, fans and production equipment.

With a rated motor capacity of 30 kW (40 HP), a 60 A operating current and a 400 V AC control coil, the Lovato YD30400 delivers reliable motor starting performance while helping reduce voltage dips and mechanical wear during acceleration.

Reliable Reduced Voltage Motor Starting

Star delta starters reduce electrical current during motor start-up by initially connecting the motor windings in a star configuration before automatically switching to delta operation. This reduces voltage drops, limits mechanical shock and improves the operational life of motors and driven equipment.

The Lovato YD30400 provides dependable performance in industrial automation systems where reliable motor starting, equipment protection and long-term operational efficiency are essential.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial pumps.
  • Air compressors.
