by Siemens
Read verified buyer reviews ↓OverviewThe Siemens 3RW3018-1BB04, a leading soft starter from the esteemed SIRIUS 3RW30 line, is engineered for precise motor acceleration and deceleration. This crucial industrial component prolongs motor and mechanical system lifespan by mitigating inrush current and mechanical stress during startup. Designed for diverse industrial uses, it efficiently manages motors up to 7.5 kW at 400 V AC. Featuring a 17.6 A operational current and flexible 24 V AC/DC control voltage, the 3RW3018-1BB04 offers both strength and accuracy. Its secure screw terminal connections simplify installation and upkeep. Incorporating a bypass contact system, this Siemens soft starter not only ensures smooth starts but also boosts energy efficiency, reducing power loss at full speed and lowering operational costs. Adjustable start and stop times (0 to 20 seconds) provide detailed control, making the 3RW3018-1BB04 essential for optimizing industrial motor system performance and reliability.Key Features Optimized Motor Protection: Reduces mechanical stress and inrush current for extended motor life. High Operational Current: Rated at 17.6 A for reliable performance in demanding applications. Efficient Motor Power Control: Supports up to 7.5 kW at 400 V AC, ideal for a wide range of motors. Flexible Control Voltage: Operates efficiently with 24 V AC/DC control voltage. Integrated Bypass Contact: Minimizes power loss and enhances energy efficiency during operation. Adjustable Start/Stop Times: Fine-tune acceleration and deceleration from 0 to 20 seconds for precise control. Wide Temperature Tolerance: Functions reliably in ambient temperatures from -25°C to +60°C. Technical Specifications Product Type: Soft Starter Part Number: 3RW3018-1BB04 Series: SIRIUS 3RW30 Rated Operational Voltage: 200 to 480 V AC Frequency: 50/60 Hz Connection Type: Screw terminals Enclosure Rating: IP20 Dimensions (H x W x D): 95 mm x 45 mm x 151 mm Weight: Approximately 0.439 kg Compliance: CE, RoHS Applications Pumps and Fans: Ensures gradual acceleration and deceleration, preventing water hammer effects and reducing wear on impellers and bearings. Conveyor Systems: Provides smooth starting to avoid sudden jerks, preventing material spillage and reducing stress on conveyor belts and mechanical components. Compressors: Minimizes starting torque and current spikes, protecting vital components from unnecessary strain and prolonging equipment life. Mixers and Agitators: Offers controlled startup to prevent splashing and mechanical shock, especially with viscous materials, improving process efficiency and safety. General Industrial Machinery: Suitable for a diverse array of equipment requiring a controlled motor startup to enhance operational reliability and reduce maintenance needs. Why ChooseThis model stands out for its ability to significantly extend the operational life of motors and associated machinery by mitigating the harsh effects of direct-on-line starting, translating into substantial savings on replacement and repair costs. Its integrated bypass contact system drastically reduces power losses during operation, contributing to lower electricity bills and a more sustainable energy footprint. With easily adjustable start and stop times, this soft starter provides unmatched control and flexibility, enabling fine-tuning to specific application requirements.Order NowContact us to integrate the Siemens 3RW3018-1BB04 into your systems.FAQWhat is the primary function of the Siemens 3RW3018-1BB04 soft starter?Its primary function is to provide controlled motor acceleration and deceleration, significantly reducing inrush current and mechanical stress during startup, thereby extending the lifespan of motors and connected mechanical systems.What is the maximum motor power this soft starter can manage?The 3RW3018-1BB04 is designed to manage motors up to 7.5 kW at 400 V AC.Does this soft starter contribute to energy efficiency?Yes, it features an integrated bypass contact system that minimizes power loss once the motor reaches full speed, contributing to lower operational costs and a reduced carbon footprint.
