Motor starter PKZM0 Screw/Push-in 1..1.6A PKZM0-1.6-SPI32 199194

Motor starter – reliable protection for your motors

This three-phase PKZM0 motor starter from Eaton is a key element in protecting electrical installations powering motors. The device combines short-circuit and overload protection, ensuring stable and safe operation of equipment. Designed to work with motors up to 0.55 kW, it will be suitable for both professional and home applications.

Design and functionality

The PKZM0-1.6-SPI32 starter is distinguished by its versatility thanks to the possibility of connecting wires in two ways: using screw terminals and innovative Push-in technology. Push-in terminals significantly speed up installation – by up to 50% compared to traditional screw terminals – and also provide high resistance to vibrations and shocks. The solid construction of the device, made of high-quality plastics and metal, guarantees long-lasting and reliable operation. High breaking capacity up to 150 kA at 400 V AC provides effective protection in the event of a short circuit.

Key features and benefits

• Versatility: Possibility of connecting wires using screw terminals or Push-in.

• Fast installation: Push-in technology reduces installation time by up to half.

• Vibration resistance: Constant spring pressure in Push-in terminals ensures a stable connection even in difficult conditions.

• Compatibility: The device is compatible with existing Eaton products and accessories with screw terminals.

• Motor protection: Protects motors against overload, short circuit and phase failure.

• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of IEC/EN 60947 and VDE 0660 standards, confirming its high quality and safety standards.

• Phase failure sensitivity: Additional protection against damage to the motor caused by the loss of one phase.

• For IE3 motors: Optimized tripping times of short-circuit releases ensure stable operation with energy-saving IE3 motors.

The PKZM0-1.6 starter is not only a protective element, but also a convenient tool for installers, allowing for quick and efficient installation and confidence in reliable electrical installation protection. Its compact dimensions (75 mm depth x 45 mm width x 102 mm height) make it easy to install even in tight spaces in switchgear. The rated continuous current of 1.6 A and the overload release setting range of 1 - 1.6 A allow for precise adaptation to the needs of a specific application.
