This 15 kW three-phase star-delta starter is a sensible choice when you're using a motor intermittently or with frequent starts and stops as it allows you to start motors at a lower voltage. It consists of three contacts, along with a timer and a thermal overload to prevent it overheating.

The star-delta has an operating temperature range of -25°C to +60°C. You can fit your starter motor with an overload to protect against electrical surges, but this one is supplied without. Select a compatible overload from the RF38 series (for example stock no. 685-1309) to match the full-load current of your motor.

Star-delta motor starters control winding currents only and are RoHS compliant, meaning they don't include harmful levels of hazardous substances. Its moulded plastic case is IP65 rated, so there's full protection against dust and high-pressure water jets from any direction. It's commonly found in manufacturing environments.
