Forward-Reverse Starters
Apex Forward-Reverse Starters are designed for motors that need to run in both clockwise and anti-clockwise directions, combining directional control with overload protection and rugged enclosure design.
This starter is used where the motor must rotate in both directions, making it especially relevant for machinery where reversing motion is part of normal operation.
The catalogue notes a simple front-control layout: green starts the motor, red stops it, and black reverses the direction of operation.
An operator-friendly reversing starter for applications that demand direction change with dependable motor protection and durable low-voltage control construction.
Typical use cases include conveyors, machine tool feeds, rolling mechanisms, and systems where controlled reverse movement is essential during operation or maintenance.
Pair forward-reverse starters with industrial ON-OFF and Changeover Switches for operator control, or explore Direct Online Starters and Air Break Contactors for broader motor control architectures.
