Product details

Active production — what that means for your BOM line

The 3RK1301-0DB00-1AA2: It's quoted to order against your BOM quantity through independent distribution.

Reversing starter with CLASS 10 trip — what that means for motor control

This is a reversing starter (design: reversing starter), so it handles forward/reverse control of a three-phase motor without external contactors. It supports reverse starting (yes) and direct start (no — meaning it's not a soft-start or VFD; it's a direct-on-line reversing starter). The maximum operating frequency is 750 operations per hour, so it's sized for moderate cycling — not high-speed indexing but fine for typical material handling.

Fieldbus connectivity: PROFINET and PROFIBUS DP on board

Both PROFINET protocol (yes) and PROFIBUS DP protocol (yes) are supported natively — no separate communication module needed. That means this single unit can talk to either a PROFINET controller or a PROFIBUS master, which simplifies spares stocking if your plant runs both networks. The I/O map is 1 byte of inputs and 1 byte of outputs — enough for basic status and control signals (run, fault, direction). For applications needing more I/O, you'd add a separate I/O module on the same backplane.

Supply voltage and short-circuit rating — panel integration details

That's standard for industrial control panels — it runs on a 24 V DC bus without a separate power supply. Mounting is pluggable on a terminal module — it snaps onto a DIN-rail-mounted base, not hard-wired. That speeds replacement: pull the old module, plug in the new one, no rewiring of the power or fieldbus connections. The main energy infeed uses screw-type terminals on the base.

Environmental ratings: temperature, shock, vibration, mounting position

Shock resistance is 5 g for 11 ms; vibration resistance is 2 g. Mounting position can be vertical or horizontal — no restriction, which helps in tight panels where you need to rotate the module to fit the gland plate.

Dimensions and power dissipation — panel space planning

Dimensions: depth 120 mm, width 90 mm, height 265 mm. That's a compact footprint for a reversing starter with integrated fieldbus — about the size of a small contactor plus a PLC slice. Power dissipation is 4.1184 W with bypass circuit and 4.118 W without — negligible heat for panel cooling calculations. You won't need forced ventilation for this module alone.

Frequently asked questions

What fieldbus protocols does 3RK1301-0DB00-1AA2 support?

It supports both PROFINET and PROFIBUS DP natively. No separate communication module is required — the fieldbus interface is built into the unit.

What is the short-circuit rating of 3RK1301-0DB00-1AA2?

It is rated 50 kA at 400 V. That high SCCR means it can be installed in high-fault-current panels without additional upstream current-limiting protection.

Will 3RK1301-0DB00-1AA2 drop into a panel specified for 6ES7515-2AM00-0AB0 without rewiring?

No. The 6ES7515-2AM00-0AB0 is a Siemens S7-1500 CPU module — a completely different product class (PLC CPU vs motor starter). They are not footprint-compatible, electrically compatible, or fieldbus-compatible. No cross-reference exists between these two part numbers.
