Why Choose the Lovato YDSW15230 Star Delta Starter with Isolator?
The Lovato YDSW15230 is a premium enclosed star delta starter with integrated rotary isolator designed for the reliable reduced-voltage starting of three-phase induction motors. Manufactured by Lovato Electric, this industrial starter reduces motor inrush current during start-up, helping to minimise mechanical stress while extending the service life of motors and driven equipment.
Designed for demanding industrial environments, the YDSW15230 features a durable IP65 insulated enclosure complete with integrated start and stop push-buttons and a built-in rotary isolator for safe local isolation. It is ideal for machine builders, panel manufacturers and maintenance engineers requiring dependable motor control and safe maintenance procedures.
With a rated motor capacity of 15 kW (20 HP), a 28 A AC-3 operating current and a 230 V AC control coil, the Lovato YDSW15230 delivers reliable reduced-voltage starting for pumps, compressors, conveyors, ventilation systems and other industrial machinery. A compatible thermal overload relay is selected separately to complete the installation.

Reliable Reduced Voltage Motor Starting
Star delta starters reduce the electrical current drawn during motor start-up by initially connecting the motor windings in a star configuration before automatically switching to delta operation. This controlled starting process helps minimise voltage dips, reduce mechanical shock and improve the longevity of motors and driven equipment.
The integrated rotary isolator provides a safe means of disconnecting the starter during servicing and maintenance, making the Lovato YDSW15230 an excellent choice for industrial applications where both operational reliability and personnel safety are essential.
