Why Choose the Lovato M2P00911230A7 Direct-On-Line Starter?
The Lovato M2P00911230A7 is an enclosed direct-on-line (DOL) motor starter designed for switching, short-circuit protection and overload protection of suitable three-phase motors. Part of the Lovato M2P range, it combines a motor protection circuit breaker, contactor and mushroom pushbutton in a robust insulated enclosure.
This exact configuration provides an adjustable motor-protection range of 2.5–4 A and an IEC AC-3 operational rating of 4 A / 1.5 kW at 400 V. The contactor is equipped with a 230 V AC 50/60 Hz coil, making the starter suitable for control systems using a 230 V AC control supply.
With IP65 enclosure protection, Class 10A overload characteristics and integrated short-circuit release, the M2P00911230A7 provides a coordinated motor-starting solution for machinery and industrial equipment. Its enclosed construction and external controls simplify installation while providing essential motor switching and protection functions in one assembly.

Reliable Motor Starting and Protection
A direct-on-line starter applies the supply directly to a suitable motor during starting, while the integrated contactor provides electrical switching. Unlike a basic contactor-and-overload assembly, the Lovato M2P00911230A7 incorporates a motor protection circuit breaker with short-circuit and overload protection, providing a coordinated solution for motor branch-circuit control.
The adjustable 2.5–4 A protection range allows the starter to be set according to the connected motor's rated current. Combined with Class 10A overload characteristics, temperature compensation and a 50 kA Type 2 conditional short-circuit rating at 230 V and 400 V under the specified coordination conditions, the M2P provides dependable protection for suitable industrial motor applications.
Typical Applications
- Direct starting of suitable three-phase induction motors.
- Industrial pumps and fans.
- Conveyor and material-handling equipment.
- Machine tools and production machinery.
- Compressors and auxiliary equipment within the starter ratings.
- OEM machinery using 230 V AC 50/60 Hz contactor control.
