Lovato ADXN Soft Starters

Simple, compact and easy to configure.

The new Lovato ADXN series of soft starters are ideal for gradually starting and stopping motors. They can be adapted to a variety of applications, including pump, compressor, fan and control, and they are available with current ratings from 6 to 45A.

Features to take note of

Wide range of power supply, with a rated line voltage from 208 to 600V AC. Available in versions with 24V AC/DC or 100-240V AC auxiliary supply voltage.

Integrated bypass for disabling the thyristors once the starting ramp has concluded. This saves energy as there is less heat generation and power loss.

The thyristors are protected against unpredictable phenomena on the line while the motor is running, for example short circuit, overvoltage, overcurrent etc.

Two integrated relay outputs for signalling or controlling external equipment.

3 status LEDs for signalling presence of auxiliary power supply, ramp in progress/top of ramp (TOR) and alarm.

Ready to use with factory set configuration for quick and simple commissioning.

Integrated protection functions including soft starter thermal protection with integrated temperature sensor. Line frequency and voltage out of limits. Line voltage not present, phase loss and wrong phase sequence.

The Basic version: ADXNB

Quick and simple, this is the ideal solution for those who need a soft starter with basic functions. Extremely simple to configure, its sole purpose is to control the gradual starting and stopping of a motor.

The NFC version: ADXNF

Programmable via your smartphone for better accuracy and convenience.

This one features NFC connectivity which enables device configuration using a smart device with the Lovato NFC app, available for Android and iOS. This model is extremely user-friendly, with an interface that makes it easy to identify parameters via its menu structure. It also features accurate, repeatable settings and password protection for added security. It leaves the factory with presets to control scroll compressors, as used in air conditioning, chiller and heat pump applications.

All parameters can be modified via NFC to control any application such as pumps, fans, conveyors etc. For ease of use, your settings can be saved on the smart device and then copied to other ADXNF model without losing time. This model is ideal for programming series of devices.

The Advanced version: ADXNP

High performance, integrated motor thermal protection.

The advanced version offers you a choice of configuring the parameters with the front potentiometers or NFC connectivity via smart devices with the Lovato NFC app, available for Android and iOS. There is integrated electronic motor thermal protection with configurable separate thermal classes for starting and running. This has a starting ramp control with current limit, with automatic adaptation to the load. For security, this model offers password protection.

There is a front optical port for connecting via USB and Wi-Fi for monitoring and programming devices. There is also the optional RS485 (Modbus-RTU) communication module for integration into a control and supervision system. The ADXNP is compatible with Xpress configuration software and Lovato NFC and SAM1 apps. 

For motor thermal protection the ADXNB and ADXNF soft starters can be combined with a SM1R series motor protection circuit breakers, creating a compact starter with integrated short circuit and overload protection, or alternatively with a set of fuses for short circuit protection and and a RF38 series thermal relay for overload protection.

These new soft starters from Lovato are cutting-edge motor starting technology.
