Product details

Trip class and starting profile

The 3RW5126-1XC14: Trip class is selectable: CLASS 10A (default), 10E, or 20E per IEC 60947-4-2 (cite:). Starting voltage is adjustable 30–100 % (cite:); stopping voltage fixed at 50 % (cite:). The voltage ramp and soft torque functions (cite:,) let the commissioning engineer tune the acceleration profile to the load without mechanical shock.

Panel fit and environmental limits

Mounting is screw fixing (cite:) with a vertical surface orientation; the unit is rotatable ±90° and tiltable ±22.5° front/back (cite:). Clearance requirements: 100 mm upwards, 75 mm downwards, 10 mm forwards, 5 mm at the side, 0 mm backwards (cite:,). Pollution degree 3 per IEC 60947-4-2 (cite:) means the unit tolerates conductive dust and occasional condensation — typical for industrial enclosures without climate control.

Control and diagnostics

The unit includes a standard HMI and a High Feature HMI (cite:,). Analog output is configurable as 4–20 mA (default) or 0–10 V when the High Feature HMI is used (cite:). An error logbook (cite:) and firmware update capability (cite:) are built in — no external programming tool required for routine parameter changes. Auto-reset and remote reset (by cycling the control supply voltage) are supported (cite:,). The minimum load is 15 % of the smallest settable Ie (cite:), which covers lightly loaded motors without nuisance tripping.

Frequently asked questions

What is the trip class and how does it affect motor starting?

The trip class is selectable: CLASS 10A (default), 10E, or 20E per IEC 60947-4-2 (cite:). CLASS 20E gives a longer ramp window for high-inertia loads.

What fieldbus protocols does 3RW5126-1XC14 support?

It supports PROFIBUS, Modbus RTU, and PROFINET standard (cite:,). This allows direct integration into Siemens S7 and third-party control networks without additional communication modules.
