Eaton MST-5HP-230V-30A Magnetic Motor Starter

eaton MST-5HP-230V-30A Magnetic Motor Starter is a control device for starting and operating a 5 horsepower motor on a 230-volt, single-phase electrical system. It is specified for industrial air compressors and other equipment that require a 5 HP motor at 230 V, with a current rating of 30 amps. The model designation communicates the core specifications: 5 HP capacity, 230 V operation, single-phase supply, and a 30 A rating, helping technicians select compatible motor circuits and protect conductors within those limits. As a magnetic motor starter, this unit energizes and de-energizes motor circuits in industrial settings where a dedicated starter is used to control 5 HP motors powered by 230 V single-phase power. The MST-5HP-230V-30A represents eaton's range of control products designed for straightforward integration with standard 230 V motor control schemes in industrial environments that rely on air compression equipment.
