YDSW11230 Lovato star delta starter with isolator 230V 11KW 15HP 22Amp

Why Choose the Lovato YDSW11230 Star-Delta Starter with Isolator?

The Lovato YDSW11230 is a high-performance star-delta motor starter with integrated isolator designed for reduced-current starting of three-phase induction motors in demanding industrial and commercial applications. Manufactured by Lovato Electric, this enclosed starter combines dependable motor control with safe local isolation functionality for enhanced operational safety and maintenance convenience.

The star-delta starting method initially connects the motor windings in a star configuration to reduce startup current and torque before automatically switching to delta operation for normal running conditions. This controlled startup process helps reduce voltage dips, minimise mechanical stress and improve the operational lifespan of motors and driven equipment.

With a rated motor power of 11 kW, a 22 A AC3 operational current rating and a 230 V AC control voltage, the Lovato YDSW11230 is suitable for pumps, compressors, conveyors, fans and industrial process machinery requiring reliable reduced-current motor starting with integrated isolation functionality.

Efficient Reduced-Current Motor Starting with Isolation

Star-delta starters are commonly used for larger three-phase motors where reducing startup current is essential for maintaining electrical system stability and protecting connected equipment. By initially connecting the motor in star configuration, the starter lowers current draw before automatically switching to delta operation for full-load running.

The integrated rotary isolator fitted to the Lovato YDSW11230 enables safe local disconnection during maintenance and servicing procedures. This combination of star-delta starting and isolation functionality makes the starter particularly suitable for industrial automation systems requiring both operational reliability and maintenance safety.

Typical Applications

• Industrial pumps and booster systems.
• Compressors and refrigeration equipment.
• Conveyor and material handling systems.
• Ventilation and extraction equipment.
• Water treatment and agricultural systems.
• General industrial machinery and automation systems.
