With the additional fan fitted, the unit can be rotated ±90° or tilted ±22.5° front-to-back; without the fan, rotation is limited to ±10° and tilt to ±10° — the fan option buys you installation flexibility in tight cabinets. Clearance requirements: 100 mm above, 75 mm below, 5 mm at the sides — the vertical gap is the critical one for hot air rising off the heatsink. ## Motor protection and control features Built-in motor overload protection (no separate overload relay needed) and adjustable current limitation let you set the start current between 20% and the full rated current — useful for gentle starts on conveyors or pumps where mechanical shock is a concern. ## Termination and wiring Main circuit connection uses busbar or cable lugs: the front and back clamping points accept 6 AWG to 2/0, and using both clamping points together handles up to 2x 1/0.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RW4056-6BB34 Soft Starter, SIRIUS, 162 A, S6 Frame","metaDescription":"Siemens 3RW4056-6BB34 SIRIUS soft starter, rated 162 A at 40 °C, S6 frame size.
