3. Differences Between Old & New Models

Smaller footprint, 消費電力の低減, native Modbus RTU and optimized protection logic for 3RW55

Different mounting cutout dimensions; copper busbars and mounting brackets need modification during cabinet retrofit

1. Recommended Matching Protection Devices
2. Main Circuit Short-Circuit Protection: Moulded case circuit breaker matched to 110 kW motor circuit
3. Specialized Thyristor Protection: aM/gR ultra-fast fuse 500 V 315 あ (mandatory upstream of soft starter, no thyristor short-circuit protection without it)
4. Additional Motor Protection: External PTC thermistor connectable to control terminals for winding overtrip protection

Ⅶ. Typical Troubleshooting Matrix

VIII. 主な利点

1. Independent 3-phase voltage regulation; eliminates 3-phase current unbalance common in 2-phase soft starters, extending motor bearing service life
2. Integrated bypass eliminates thyristor power loss during steady operation, delivering over 98% energy saving vs non-bypass models
3. Supports soft stop and pump stop water hammer suppression, ideal for water supply, drainage and HVAC systems
4. Comprehensive integrated motor protection, eliminating the need for separate thermal overload relays

Terminal Summary Table

Supplementary Wiring Guidelines

1. Tightening torque for control wires: 1.2~1.5 N·m; wire cross-section 0.75~1.5 mm² copper conductors
2. Digital inputs are passive contact type; power solely from internal L+/Lwithout external PLC 24 V電源
3. Series the normally closed 95/96 contacts in safety circuit to cut upstream contactor power on fault
4. Profibus communication requires separate 3RW4900-0KC00 module with dedicated port (not part of front control terminals)
