Factory-integrated reversing starter — what ships inside
The 3RA2215-0FD15-2AP6 is a non-fused reversing motor starter from the Siemens SIRIUS 3RA2 family, size S00. It ships as a pre-assembled unit containing a 3RT2015-1AP62 contactor, a 3RA1921-1DA00 link module, a 8US1251-5DS10 busbar adapter, a 3RA2913-1DB1 RS assembly kit, and a 3RV2011-0FA15 circuit-breaker — all factory-integrated, not field-kitted.
Thermal bimetallic overload — CLASS 10 trip curve
This suits standard motor starts where the acceleration time stays under 10 seconds; for longer ramp times (e.g., high-inertia loads) a CLASS 20 or electronic overload would be needed. The short-circuit trip is magnetic (fixed instantaneous threshold), so no adjustable magnetic setting is available on this unit.
Rated power and voltage — motor sizing anchor
Rated power at 400 V is 120 W, at 500 V is 180 W, and at 690 V is 250 W — these are the motor load limits for continuous duty under AC-3 switching. Rated insulation voltage is 690 V, matching the maximum AC-3 operating voltage.
Envelope and mounting — panel integration
Dimensions are 200 mm height × 90 mm width × 155.1 mm depth. It fastens by snapping onto 60 mm busbar systems in a vertical mounting position — no DIN rail adapter needed for busbar integration. Clearance requirements: 20 mm upward, 10 mm downward, 9 mm at the side, 0 mm forward and backward. These are the minimum ventilation gaps; denser panel layouts can use these numbers for fill-factor planning.
Environmental and termination specs
Operating temperature range is -20 to +60 °C, storage -50 to +80 °C, transport -55 to +80 °C. Degree of pollution is 3 — conductive pollution is possible, so the starter should be housed in an enclosure that prevents moisture and dust ingress.
