Overview
The Siemens 3RU2116-0AB0 is a cornerstone of the Siemens SIRIUS modular system, specifically engineered to provide current-dependent protection for loads with normal starting conditions. This thermal overload relay is designed to safeguard three-phase and single-phase AC motors against excessive temperature rises resulting from overloads or phase failures.
By integrating seamlessly with Siemens 3RT contactors, the 3RU2116-0AB0 ensures a compact and efficient control cabinet layout. Its robust design and Class 10 tripping characteristic make it an industry standard for reliability in harsh industrial environments.
Key Benefit
-
Space-Saving Design: As part of the S00 size family, it offers a compact footprint, allowing for high-density mounting in electrical panels.
-
Flexible Reset Options: Features a versatile “Manual-Automatic-Reset” selector, allowing maintenance teams to choose the safest recovery method for their specific application.
-
Cost-Effective Protection: Provides essential protection against motor burnout, significantly reducing downtime and equipment replacement costs.
-
Easy Integration: Designed for direct mounting onto 3RT201 contactors, eliminating the need for additional wiring between the contactor and the relay.
-
Global Compliance: Meets international standards (IEC, UL, CSA), ensuring its suitability for global export projects.
Functionality
-
Overload Protection: Continuously monitors the current consumption of the connected load.
-
Phase Failure Sensitivity: Integrated features allow the relay to trip faster in the event of a phase loss, preventing unbalanced heating in the motor.
-
Temperature Compensation: The 3RU21 series is compensated for ambient temperature variations between -40°C and +70°C, ensuring consistent performance regardless of factory conditions.
-
Signal Indication: Features a built-in switch position indicator and a “TEST” function to verify the wiring and functionality of the auxiliary contacts.
Application
The Siemens 3RU2116-0AB0 is typically utilized in low-power industrial applications, including:
-
Small Pump Motors: Protection for dosing pumps and precision fluid systems.
-
Conveyor Systems: Monitoring small drive motors in packaging or assembly lines.
-
HVAC Systems: Safeguarding fan motors and small actuators.
-
Machine Tooling: Protecting auxiliary spindles and cooling motors in CNC machinery.
Installation and Maintenance
Thanks to the SIRIUS modular system, installation is tool-free when mounting directly to a 3RT201 contactor. The screw terminals are designed for high pull-out resistance, ensuring a vibration-proof connection even in heavy-duty environments. For maintenance, the transparent cover over the current setting dial prevents accidental changes to the protection parameters.
