A manual motor starter for all applications.

Manual motor starters use a mechanical contact mechanism that is operated by hand via a button or a toggle which is used to switch the motor on and off. Like any motor starter, manual motor starters have built-in circuit protection so they don’t need to rely on fuses or circuit breakers. Manual motor starters can handle both AC and DC power, and can be either NEMA or IEC rated. These types of motor starters are commonly found in construction applications, HVAC systems, pumps, conveyors and other industrial applications.

Manual motor starter basics.
Manual starters can be reversing or non-reversing. They are also available as an enclosed starter or an open-type starter, meaning they can either be standalone devices or they can be mounted in a control panel. Manual motor starters can be used in either single phase or three phase applications with voltage ratings of 240V and 600V. Current ratings for manual motor starters can be as high 100A.
