SIMATIC direct starter with fieldbus
The 3RK1304-5KS40-4AA3: It communicates over both PROFINET and PROFIBUS DP, so it fits into Siemens S7-based control architectures without a separate gateway (cite:,).
Physical fit and mounting
Dimensions are 150 mm deep, 110 mm wide, and 230 mm high — a compact footprint for a motor starter with integrated fieldbus and bypass (cite:,). Fastening is by screw fixing; the mounting position is vertical or horizontal, giving flexibility in panel layout or machine-side mounting (cite:,).
Electrical and environmental ratings
Vibration resistance is 2g, shock resistance 15g for 11 ms — rated for industrial environments with moderate mechanical stress (cite:,).
