Product details

Reversing starter for compact motor control

The Siemens 3RA2215-1AA16-5BB4 is a SIRIUS reversing starter in size S00, combining two contactors and a thermal overload relay in one assembly for forward/reverse control of a three-phase motor.

Panel fit and mounting

Clearance requirements: 50 mm above, 32 mm in front, 10 mm below, and 10 mm at the side; no clearance needed behind the unit.

Supplied components and wiring

The reversing starter ships with a 3RT2016-1BB44 contactor and a 3RA1921-1DA00 link module; main circuit connections use screw-type terminals. Rated control supply voltage is 24 V DC; the unit is designed for standard rail or screw mounting and includes a thermal overload relay with temperature compensation over -20 to +60 °C.

Lifecycle and sourcing

No official successor or direct second-source cross-reference is listed; the 3RA2215-1AA16-5BB4 is the current catalog number for this SIRIUS reversing starter configuration.

Frequently asked questions

What is the AC-3 current rating of 3RA2215-1AA16-5BB4?

This covers small motor reversing applications up to about 0.75 kW at 400 V.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3RA2215-1AA16-5BB4?

Siemens provides RoHS and REACH declarations, plus IEC/EN 60947-4-1 compliance documentation. The unit carries CE and UKCA markings for the European and UK markets.
