Why Choose the Lovato PMV20A600 Voltage Monitoring Relay?

The Lovato PMV20A600 is a dependable three-phase voltage monitoring relay designed to detect phase loss and incorrect phase sequence in electrical systems operating without a neutral conductor. As part of the established Lovato Electric PMV20 monitoring relay series, it provides effective supply supervision for motors, pumps, compressors and industrial machinery.

Designed for a monitored voltage range of 380–600 V AC, the PMV20A600 is suitable for higher-voltage three-phase industrial power systems. The relay is self-powered directly from the monitored circuit, eliminating the need for a separate auxiliary supply and simplifying installation within control panels and switchboards.

The PMV20A600 continuously checks that all three phases are present and connected in the correct sequence. If a phase is lost or the phase order is incorrect, its normally energised relay output changes state rapidly, allowing connected machinery to be stopped or prevented from starting before an unsuitable supply condition causes equipment damage.

Key Advantages

  • Reliable phase loss and incorrect phase sequence monitoring.
  • Suitable for three-phase systems without neutral.
  • Wide 380–600 V AC monitored voltage range.
  • Self-powered operation eliminates a separate auxiliary supply.
  • Fast response to phase faults helps protect motors and machinery.
  • Normally energised output supports fail-safe control circuits.
  • Helps prevent incorrect motor rotation and phase-loss damage.
  • Compact DIN rail design for industrial control panels.

  • Normally energised output operation.
  • Automatic reset following restoration of the correct supply.
  • Front LED status indication.
  • Screw terminal connections.
  • Standard 35 mm DIN rail mounting.

Reliable Phase Monitoring for Three-Phase Equipment

Three-phase motors and industrial equipment depend on all supply phases being present and connected in the correct order. A missing phase can lead to excessive current, overheating, reduced torque and premature motor failure, while an incorrect phase sequence can cause pumps, fans and machinery to rotate in the wrong direction.

The Lovato PMV20A600 continuously monitors the incoming supply and changes the state of its output relay when an unsuitable phase condition is detected. The relay output can interrupt a contactor coil, activate an alarm or transmit a fault signal to a PLC, helping improve equipment protection and operational reliability.

Typical Applications

  • Three-phase motor control circuits.
  • Pump and compressor protection.
  • Conveyor and material handling systems.
  • Industrial machinery and production equipment.
  • Heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems.
  • Refrigeration equipment.
  • High-voltage industrial control panels.
  • Phase sequence checking before equipment start-up.
  • Alarm and safety interlocking circuits.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Lovato PMV20A600 used for?

The PMV20A600 monitors a three-phase AC supply and detects phase loss or incorrect phase sequence before these conditions can affect connected motors and machinery.

What voltage range can the PMV20A600 monitor?

The relay is designed for three-phase supplies ranging from 380 to 600 V AC.

Does the PMV20A600 require a neutral connection?

No. It is specifically designed for three-phase systems without neutral.

Does the relay require a separate auxiliary supply?

No. The PMV20A600 is self-powered directly from the monitored three-phase circuit.

Can the PMV20A600 help prevent incorrect motor rotation?

Yes. It detects incorrect phase sequence, allowing the control circuit to prevent a motor, pump or fan from starting in the wrong direction.

How is the PMV20A600 installed?

The relay mounts on a standard 35 mm DIN rail inside an electrical control panel and connects to the three monitored phases using screw terminals.
