Product details

The ABB 1SFA898220R7000 is a PSTX1050 soft starter with auto phase sequence detection, sized for three-phase motors on 208-690 V AC supplies. Ramp time is adjustable from 1 to 120 seconds, giving you control over acceleration profiles for conveyors, pumps, or fans. The built-in electronic overload protection eliminates the need for a separate overload relay, saving panel space and wiring.

This soft starter supports Modbus-RTU, Modbus-TCP, Ethernet-IP, EtherCAT, DeviceNet, CANopen, Profibus, Profinet, BACnet-IP, and BACnet-MSTP — covering essentially every industrial network in common use. Analog outputs are configurable for 0-10 V, 0-20 mA, or 4-20 mA, so you can feed speed or current signals directly to a PLC analog input card without an external signal conditioner.

Protection and warnings

The PSTX1050 includes protection functions: current imbalance, current underload, earth fault, locked rotor, over/under voltage, phase reversal, and PT-100/PTC connection for motor thermal monitoring. Warning outputs cover the same conditions plus fan fault, EOL, and THD(U).

Frequently asked questions

What is 1SFA898220R7000's listed function?

The primary function is auto phase sequence detection, which automatically verifies correct phase rotation before the motor starts.

What is the ramp time range for this soft starter?

Ramp time is adjustable from 1 to 120 seconds, allowing you to match acceleration to the load characteristics.

What compliance documentation does ABB provide for 1SFA898220R7000?

RoHS compliance following EU Directive 2011/65/EU and Amendment 2015/863 is documented. WEEE category is Business To Business, Large Equipment.
