Product details

What is the 3RK4320-3PQ51-0BA2?

The SIRIUS 3RK4320-3PQ51-0BA2 is a motor starter MCU (Motor Control Unit) designed for AS-Interface networks — a direct starter with electromechanical switching contacts and bimetal motor protection. Built for washdown or dusty environments with an IP54 enclosure, this starter handles ambient temperatures from -25 to +50 °C. The DC control supply runs on 20.4 to 26.4 V, and the unit includes a built-in motor brake output — a feature that saves an external contactor on applications needing mechanical holding.

AS-Interface Integration and Dimensions

This starter communicates natively over AS-Interface (the protocol is supported), with two digital inputs on board. It does not support PROFINET or PROFIBUS DP, so if your line runs those fieldbuses, you'll need a gateway or a different variant. Physical footprint: 245 mm wide, 215 mm high, 205 mm deep.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I purchase the SIRIUS 3RK4320-3PQ51-0BA2 motor starter?

The 3RK4320-3PQ51-0BA2 is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent industrial-automation distribution. Submit a request for quote (RFQ) to confirm current availability and pricing at the time of your order.

Does the 3RK4320-3PQ51-0BA2 include a built-in brake?

Yes, the product component includes a motor brake output. This saves adding a separate brake contactor for applications like vertical loads or holding brakes.

Is the 3RK4320-3PQ51-0BA2 compatible with AS-Interface?

Yes, the AS-Interface protocol is supported. The unit communicates natively on AS-Interface networks and does not require a gateway for that protocol.
