What this SIRIUS motor starter delivers
The Siemens 3RA2115-1EA15-1BB4 is a non-fused direct motor starter from the SIRIUS family, Size S00, combining a 3RT2015-1BB41 contactor and a thermal bimetallic overload relay in a single assembly. The 24 V DC coil keeps control power consistent across PLC-driven panels without an intermediate relay.
Trip class and protection design
The magnetic short-circuit trip handles fault clearing independently of the bimetallic thermal element, so a phase-to-phase fault is interrupted before the overload heater sees the full let-through energy.
Vertical mounting position is specified; clearance requirements are 20 mm upward, 10 mm downward, and 9 mm at the side — tight enough for dense panel layouts but non-negotiable for thermal derating.
