Product details

Rated 1.6 A at AC-3 duty on a 400 V supply, this unit is sized for small three-phase induction motors — think fractional-horsepower pumps, small conveyors, or valve actuators where reversing capability is needed. Motor protection is handled by a bimetal overload relay integrated into the unit, so no separate overload block is needed — one order code covers the reversing contactor and the protection.

Control supply and communication — what you need to know for integration

The control supply is 20.4 to 26.4 V DC. This unit has no onboard bus communication — no PROFINET, PROFIBUS, or AS-Interface — so control signals must come via hardwired digital inputs from the PLC output card or a remote I/O block. The IP55 enclosure makes it suitable for installation in cabinets that see occasional washdown or dust exposure, but it is not rated for continuous hose-down — keep that in mind for food-grade or wet-area placement.

Frequently asked questions

Does 3RK4340-3ER51-1BA0 support PROFINET or PROFIBUS?

No. This unit has no onboard bus communication — no PROFINET, PROFIBUS, or AS-Interface. Control signals are hardwired only.
