The Siemens 3RW4036-1BB04 soft starter is a compact and efficient solution designed to optimise the start-up process of three-phase motors. This device is engineered to reduce the inrush current and limit torque, ensuring a smooth acceleration that minimises mechanical stress and electrical peak loads. With a rated operational current of 45 A at 40°C and the capability to handle motors up to 22 kW at 400 V in a standard circuit, it is a robust choice for a variety of industrial applications.

Featuring an integrated bypass contact system and thyristors, the 3RW4036-1BB04 offers intrinsic device protection and motor overload protection without the need for additional components. The absence of an evaluation of thermistor motor protection allows for straightforward integration into existing systems. The soft starter also provides an external reset function and adjustable current limitation for enhanced control over motor starts.

Constructed with a width of 55 mm, a height of 160 mm, and a depth of 170 mm, this soft starter is designed for space-saving installation and can be mounted using screws or snap-on mounting. It supports a wide operating voltage range of 200 to 480 V AC and has a control supply voltage of 24 V AC/DC, making it versatile for global applications.

The 3RW4036-1BB04 is equipped with screw-type terminals for both the main current circuit and auxiliary and control circuits, ensuring secure and reliable connections. It also features two normally open contacts and one changeover contact for auxiliary functions.

This soft starter is suitable for use in a variety of environments, with an ambient operating temperature range of -25 to +60°C and an installation altitude of up to 5,000 meters above sea level. It is designed with a protection class of IP20 on the front, providing finger-safe touch protection.

Ideal for industries looking to enhance their motor control and reduce wear on mechanical components, the Siemens 3RW4036-1BB04 soft starter is a dependable and practical choice for managing the demands of modern motor starting applications.
