Product details

The Siemens 3RA1215-1AA15-1BB4 is a reversing combination starter in the SIRIUS S00 frame, rated for 1.1-1.6 A with a 110 VDC control voltage. It integrates a motor starter protector (MSP) with a reversing contactor pair into a single DIN-rail or panel-mount unit, so it handles forward/reverse motor control in a compact footprint — typical for conveyor drives, hoists, or gate actuators where reversing is needed. The 110 VDC coil means it's designed for DC control circuits common in battery-backed or industrial DC control systems; verify your control supply matches before wiring.

The 1.1-1.6 A range sets the motor full-load current window this starter protects and switches. At the low end it covers a 0.37 kW motor at 400 V three-phase; at the high end roughly 0.75 kW. The S00 frame size keeps the overall width to 45 mm, so it fits standard 45 mm-wide DIN-rail slots without crowding adjacent devices. The auxiliary contact configuration — one SPDT NO/NC on the MSP plus one NO on the contactor — gives you feedback for status indication or interlocking without adding a separate auxiliary block. That SPDT on the MSP can signal a trip condition back to the PLC.

Frequently asked questions

Can I replace 3RA1215-1AA15-1BB4 with a different model?

No official successor has been issued for this order code. If you need a drop-in replacement, the closest pin-compatible alternative would be another SIRIUS S00 reversing combination starter with the same 1.1-1.6 A rating and 110 VDC coil, but verify auxiliary contact configuration matches your wiring.

What is the difference between a combination starter and a soft starter?

A combination starter integrates a disconnect, short-circuit protection, and a contactor in one unit for direct-on-line starting. A soft starter ramps voltage to reduce inrush current during motor start. The 3RA1215-1AA15-1BB4 is a reversing combination starter, not a soft starter — it provides full-voltage forward/reverse control with integrated protection.

Can the Siemens 3RA1215 be used for single-phase motors?

The 3RA1215-1AA15-1BB4 is an IEC-rated reversing combination starter designed for three-phase motor control. Using it on a single-phase motor would leave one pole unused; the thermal overload element is calibrated for three-phase current sensing, so single-phase application may affect trip accuracy. Consult the motor nameplate and starter documentation before wiring.
