Motor starter switch 2-pole Z-MS-10/2 248398

Motor starter – reliable protection for your devices

This two-pole motor starter Z-MS-10/2 from Eaton is a key element in protecting electrical installations, especially where motors are used. It provides effective protection against overload and short circuit, which translates to a longer lifespan of connected devices and safe operation. It is a solution for both professionals involved in electrical installations and end-users who care about safety in their home or workshop.

Functionality and application

The Z-MS-10/2 starter is designed to protect single-phase motors with a power of up to 1.5 kW. Its overload release setting range is 6.3 - 10 A, allowing it to be adapted to different types of motors. The magnetic release method guarantees a quick reaction in the event of a short circuit, and the built-in thermal protection protects against the effects of prolonged overload. Mounting is done on a standard 35 mm rail using snaps (DIN EN 50022), which greatly simplifies and speeds up installation.

Key features and benefits

• Wide range of applications: ideal for protecting motors in household appliances, workshops and in small industry.

• High short-circuit breaking capacity: 10 kA at 400 V AC ensures effective disconnection of the circuit in the event of a failure.

• Intuitive operation: lever actuator facilitates operation and allows for quick restoration of power after removing the cause of the disconnection.

• Durable construction: made of high-quality materials, guarantees reliable operation for a long time.

• Status indicator: a clear operating indicator (red/green) informs about the status of the starter – whether it is on or off.

• Safety: protection against overload and short circuit minimizes the risk of motor damage and fire in the installation.

• Easy installation: mounting on a standard 35 mm rail allows for quick integration with the existing electrical installation.

• Solid connections: screw connection of the main contacts ensures a secure and durable connection of the wires.

Technical parameters in practice

The Z-MS-10/2 starter is characterized by compact dimensions (80 mm depth, 75 mm height, 36 mm width) which allows it to be mounted even in a limited space of the switchgear. The degree of protection IP20 provides protection against accidental contact, but does not protect against the influence of water or dust – therefore, remember to mount it in a dry and well-ventilated place. The rated operating voltage is 400 V AC, and the rated operating power for AC-3 is 4 kW – which confirms its versatility and possibility of use in various configurations. The short-circuit release setting range is 78-105A – this provides additional protection against sudden current surges.
