MO132 manual motor starters magnetic only
0.10 to 32 A – with electromagnetic protection
Description
Manual motor starters magnetic only are electromechanical protection devices for the main circuit. They are
used mainly to switch motors manually ON/OFF and protect them fuse less against short-circuit.
Fuse less protection with a manual motor starter saves costs, space and ensures a quick reaction under

together with contactors and overload relays.
