Electronic Motor Starters ME Series

The electronic motor starters ME series are compact starters in a 22.5mm wide enclosure for applications requiring a high number of starts and space savings inside the panel.

They are built with hybrid technology, combining the advantage of the long life of a wear-free semiconductor device with the high robustness and low consumption of a mechanical relay. The range includes direct starters and reversing starters for motors up to 2.4 or 7A for systems up to 500VAC.

All models are powered by 24VDC and integrate motor thermal protection. Versions with STO (Safe Torque Off) also feature an emergency stop function with SIL3 and PLe safety levels.
