Our motor starter is generally used in systems which include electronics mounted close to the motor. Besides smooth starting and braking for up to two motors, the innovative unit design offers many benefits for installation operation and service in terms of time and cost.
MOVIFIT® SC for simple handling tasks in decentralized infrastructure
The robust aluminum cast housing in IP65 enclosure protection is divided into electronics unit (EBOX) and connection unit (ABOX). A major benefit is the closing mechanism with only one screw and the automatic unit replacement. This enables quick assembly and smooth unit replacement for servicing.
The integrated T distributor for energy and communication, the integrated repair switch and digital IOs means that a wide variety of external additional components are no longer required for the installation. This saves time and money.
The HygienicPlus design for use in extreme ambient conditions, for example in wet conditions in the beverage industry, is also available as standard.
Technology function level
Do you have more individual requirements? Then opt for the technology variant. Here it is all about setting parameters instead of programming. Individually tailored to your application with standardized application modules. Or program freely using the IEC standard language to the PLC open certification standard.
Problem free starting! With our MOVIFIT® SC electronic motor starter. Flexible ramps for starting and stopping. Operation of up to two motors simultaneously or one motor for two directions of rotation. Integrated brake control, which enables operation on virtually all common fieldbus systems with potential decentralized inputs and outputs as well as operation of IE3 motors. Our motor starter offers you a broad areas of applications.
Classic function level
The following also applies for both function levels:
- No startup is necessary with the classic function level. Simple DIP switches make the relevant settings following which the MOVIFIT® SC is immediately ready for use. It is controlled via the PLC using standardized process data profiles. Our "MOVIFIT® Gateway Configurator" provides you with simple configuration and diagnostics options even for more complex applications.

Connection variants
The motor starter consists of an electronics unit (EBOX) and the connection unit shown here (ABOX). The MOVIFIT® connection box (ABOX) is a large connector and entirely passive. It is available in two designs:
MOVIFIT® standard connection box
All cables to be connected are routed into the ABOX via cable glands and wired to terminals at this point.
MOVIFIT® hybrid connection box
The MOVIFIT® hybrid connection box (ABOX) offers the option of making various connections as a plug. All cables for power supply and the motor cables are routed into the ABOX via cable glands and wired to terminals at this point. M12 connectors are provided for digital inputs and outputs. The bus system can be connected via connectors. The bus connectors vary depending on the fieldbus used.
Function level
The function level indicates the functional scope of the software assigned to the MOVIFIT® units in terms of:
- Software functionality
- Processing the digital inputs and outputs
- Local system control
- Startup operation and diagnostics
