Product details

Soft starter for motor control — 40.5 A minimum, adjustable trip class

The Siemens 3RW5227-1TC05 is a SIRIUS soft starter designed for three-phase induction motor starting, with a minimum operating current of 40.5 A and a rated voltage range of 200 to 600 V. Its trip class is adjustable between CLASS 10A (default), 10E, and 20E per IEC 60947-4-2, meaning you can match the thermal overload protection to the motor's starting profile — CLASS 10A for standard starts, 10E for extended acceleration, or 20E for high-inertia loads like fans and centrifuges.

Mounting and environment — screw-fix, 306 mm tall, derate above 40 °C

Mounts via screw fixing on a vertical surface, rotatable ±90° and tiltable ±22.5° front-to-back. Dimensions are 306 mm high, 185 mm wide, 203 mm deep — plan the enclosure gland plate and cable entry accordingly.

Frequently asked questions

Is 3RW5227-1TC05 compatible with 24V control systems?

Yes, the control supply is rated at 24 V DC. The soft starter also supports remote reset by turning off the control supply voltage, which is standard for 24 V control loops.

What is the trip class of 3RW5227-1TC05 and can it be adjusted?

The trip class is adjustable among CLASS 10A (default), 10E, and 20E per IEC 60947-4-2. CLASS 10A suits standard motor starts; 10E handles extended acceleration; 20E is for high-inertia loads like large fans or pumps.
