Why Choose the Lovato PMV70NA240 Voltage Monitoring Relay?
The Lovato PMV70NA240 is a multifunction three-phase voltage monitoring relay designed to provide comprehensive protection for electrical systems operating with or without a neutral conductor. As part of the Lovato PMV70N monitoring relay series, it combines minimum-voltage, maximum-voltage and voltage-asymmetry monitoring with phase-loss, neutral-loss and incorrect phase-sequence detection.
This self-powered relay continuously supervises a 208–240 V AC three-phase supply and de-energises its output contacts when an abnormal voltage or phase condition is detected. Adjustable voltage, asymmetry and timing controls allow the protection settings to be tailored to motors, machinery, distribution systems and industrial automation equipment.
With adjustable 80–95% undervoltage, 105–115% overvoltage and 5–15% voltage-asymmetry thresholds, the PMV70NA240 combines several essential protection functions within one compact device. Two changeover relay outputs provide flexible shutdown and alarm signalling, while its neutral-loss monitoring is particularly valuable in systems supplying phase-to-neutral loads.

Reliable Three-Phase and Neutral Protection
Undervoltage can cause motors to lose torque, draw excessive current and overheat, while overvoltage can place damaging stress on insulation and electronic equipment. Voltage asymmetry can also produce uneven phase currents, excessive heating and reduced motor efficiency. The Lovato PMV70NA240 monitors all of these conditions from one multifunction relay.
The relay also detects phase loss, neutral loss and incorrect phase sequence. Neutral-loss supervision is especially important where single-phase loads are distributed across a three-phase network, as a disconnected neutral can create damaging voltage imbalance across connected equipment.
Typical Applications
- Three-phase systems with distributed neutral conductors.
- Industrial motor protection circuits.
- Electrical control panels and switchboards.
- Commercial and industrial distribution boards.
- Pumps, fans and compressor systems.
- Production and packaging machinery.
- HVAC and refrigeration installations.
- Automation systems requiring separate alarm and control outputs.
