Canceling the switch-on command (t
4
) activates the stopping mode and the motor is shut down.
The power semiconductors also ensure that the motor coasts down smoothly to a stop. As long
as the stopping time is active (t
4
to t
5
), power is still supplied to the motor. It may take longer for
the motor to actually coast down to a standstill (t
6
).

Functions of the 3RW55 and 3RW55 Failsafe soft starters
Note the information in chapter Firmware update (Page 22).
• Parameterizable soft starting for a smooth drive start-up
• Parameterizable soft stopping for a smooth drive stop
• Parameterizable current limiting for avoiding current peaks
• Integrated electronic motor overload protection with adjustable trip class (OFF,
CLASS 10A, 10E, 20E, 30E)
• Integrated intrinsic device protection protects the 3RW55 and 3RW55 Failsafe soft starters
from overload
• Extended complete motor protection by means of thermistor motor protection for
connection of a temperature sensor
• Extended operating and diagnostic functions provided by the High Feature 3RW5 HMI
• Analog output for displaying a set measured value using an external evaluation unit
• Automatic parameterization simplifies system commissioning
