This 11 kW automatic 3-phase motor starter is used to reduce the current required when starting up induction motors. Direct-on-line (DOL) starters like this one are commonly used with induction motors rated below 5 hp.

To prevent short circuits or overheating, it can be helpful to fit motor starters with an overload protection device. You might want to select one from the RF38 series to match the full-load current of your motor – for example, stock no. 685-130 is a good option.

As part of the trusted RS PRO brand, this DOL starter has been tried and tested. A moulded plastic case ensures IP65 ingress protection. It acts as an effective shield against dust and high-pressure water jets from any direction. This starter is ideal for a range of motor-driven applications, including fans, pumps and workshop equipment.
