Hazardous-area soft starter with ATEX and IECEx certification
The 3RW5534-2HA06: Rated for 200-690 V supply, it covers the common global voltage bands from 230 V to 690 V without requiring a separate voltage variant on the BOM.
Trip class selection and motor protection
The default setting is CLASS 10A / 10E, which protects standard squirrel-cage motors during normal starting duty without nuisance tripping. Torque control and pump ramp-down features allow the soft starter to manage fluid hammer in pumping applications by controlling the deceleration profile.
Fieldbus integration and analog feedback
Onboard Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, and EtherNet/IP eliminate the need for separate communication modules in most control networks — the soft starter connects directly to the PLC fieldbus slice. The analog output is configurable as 4-20 mA or 0-10 V, providing motor current or load feedback to a PLC analog input or local panel meter. PROFIenergy support is available when paired with a PROFINET communication module, enabling energy management during idle phases.
Environmental limits and panel layout
Dimensions 185 mm wide x 306 mm high x 203 mm deep with clearance requirements: 100 mm upwards, 75 mm downwards, 10 mm forwards, 5 mm at the sides, and 0 mm backwards — this fits standard 600 mm deep enclosures with room for cabling.
