Soft starter ADXN… series

The ADXN series simple, compact and functional.

ADXN series soft starters are ideal for applications which demand a simple, compact and easy to configure solution for gradually starting and stopping motors.
Their versatility makes them adaptable to a variety of applications, including pump, fan, conveyor and compressor control, and they are available with current ratings from 6 to 45A.

The ADXN product range is composed of the most compact 6 – 45A soft starters in the LOVATO Electric lineup, with a width of just 45 mm, divided into 2 construction sizes depending on their current rating.

They stand out for their ease of configuration, which enables quick and user-friendly set up of a reduced number of parameters, thus reducing commissioning time to a minimum.

They are ideally suited to a variety of applications, including pump, fan, compressor, conveyor and mixer control.

The entire range is rated for a wide range of line voltages, running from 208 to 600 VAC nominal, which makes them compatible with any market, including North America, without the need to manage different codes to match the voltage of the installation. ADXN soft starters are available with two control voltages: 24 VAC/DC, typical of automation systems, and 100-240 VAC, ideal for pump control systems, among others.
