The hybrid motor starters offer up to four functions for your motor in a single device.

The choice is yours: from the basic "1 in 1" direct starter through to the "4 in 1" reversing starter with motor protection and emergency stop.

CONTACTRON switches motors up to 4 kW quickly and reliably.


What is hybrid technology?

A combination of wear-free solid-state technology and rugged relay technology controlled by a microprocessor that enables "gentle" switching.

This considerably reduces the load on the relay contacts and increases the service life of the device at least ten fold compared to purely mechanical standard solutions.


The four functions


  • Right rotation
    Easy control via a 24 V DC or 230 V AC signal.

  • Left rotation
    Reversing function including a locking circuit and load wiring.

  • Motor protection

  • Emergency stop
