Product details

Trip class and motor protection — what the 10A/10E/20E/30E means

The 3RW5513-3HA05 offers selectable trip classes 10A, 10E (default), 20E, and 30E per IEC 60947-4-2. Default is 10E, which matches most pump and fan applications without nuisance tripping.

ATEX and IECEx — certified for explosive atmospheres

Both ATEX and IECEx certifications are listed on this unit. That means the soft starter is approved for installation in Zone 1 or Zone 2 gas atmospheres and Zone 21 or Zone 22 dust atmospheres, per the ATEX 2014/34/EU directive and the IECEx Scheme. The certifications cover the enclosure and the internal electronics — no external barrier or purge system is required for the starter itself. For a motor starter in a hazardous area, this is the difference between a standard panel and a certified installation.

Fieldbus and control — Modbus TCP, PROFIBUS, analog output

The 3RW5513-3HA05 ships with PROFIBUS DP and Modbus TCP onboard — no separate communication module needed for either protocol. The analog output is configurable as 4-20 mA (default) or 0-10 V, feeding motor current, voltage, or power to a PLC or local display. PROFIenergy is supported when paired with a PROFINET communication module, allowing the starter to participate in energy-management profiles during idle periods.

Application features — pump ramp down, torque control, breakaway pulse

Pump ramp down reduces the voltage gradually during deceleration, preventing water hammer in pipeline systems. Torque control lets you set a current limit during start — useful for soft-starting conveyors or mixers where a hard start would shift the load. The breakaway pulse delivers a short high-torque burst to break static friction before the voltage ramp begins, common in crushers and positive-displacement pumps. DC braking is also available for rapid stopping without a mechanical brake.

Mounting and clearance — fits a standard panel layout

The unit measures 275 mm high, 170 mm wide, and 152 mm deep. Clearance requirements: 100 mm above, 75 mm below, 10 mm forward, 0 mm backward, 5 mm at the sides. That zero backward clearance means it can sit flush against a backplate — useful when panel depth is tight. The power terminals accept solid conductors: 2x (1.0-2.5 mm²) and 2x (2.5-10 mm²).

Frequently asked questions

What trip classes are available on the 3RW5513-3HA05?

The soft starter offers selectable trip classes 10A, 10E (default), 20E, and 30E per IEC 60947-4-2.

Does the 3RW5513-3HA05 support Modbus TCP or PROFIBUS?

Yes, both Modbus TCP and PROFIBUS DP are built into the unit. No additional communication module is required for either protocol. Modbus RTU is not supported.

What are the ATEX and IECEx certifications on this soft starter?

Both ATEX and IECEx certifications are listed. This qualifies the unit for installation in Zone 1/2 gas and Zone 21/22 dust hazardous areas per the ATEX directive and IECEx Scheme, without requiring an external purge system.

What clearance is needed around the 3RW5513-3HA05 in a panel?

The required clearances are: 100 mm above, 75 mm below, 10 mm forward, 0 mm backward, and 5 mm at the sides. The zero backward clearance allows flush mounting against the backplate.
