Set the dial of the Siemens 3RV2021-1GA10 anywhere between 4.5 … 6.3 A: this size S0 SIRIUS 3RV2 circuit breaker protects the motor against overload (CLASS 10) and trips instantly at 82 A on a short circuit. Per Siemens it suits motors of about 2.2 kW at 400 V and has a rated short-circuit breaking capacity (Icu) of 100 kA at 400 V.
Siemens describes this unit as: Circuit breaker size S0 for motor protection, CLASS 10 A-release 4.5…6.3 A N- release 82 A screw terminal Standard switching capacity. Its instantaneous release at 82 A is set well above the motor starting current, so normal starts do not trip it.

Typical applications
- Fuseless motor starters with SIRIUS 3RT2 contactors
- Motor branch circuits with full-load currents between 4.5 … 6.3 A
- Machine-builder panels where a lockable rotary isolator is required
- Protection of pumps, fans, conveyors and compressors
Compatibility and replacement
Auxiliary switches for status feedback can be added on the front (transverse, for example 3RV2901-1E) or on the left side (3RV2901-1A). For a complete starter combine it with a size S0 3RT2 contactor using the matching Siemens link module.
Frequently asked questions
Does it include auxiliary contacts?
No. This version has no auxiliary contacts installed; add a 3RV2901 auxiliary switch if you need feedback to the PLC.
Can it be locked off?
Yes, the rotary handle can be locked in the OFF position with a padlock, which is required for safe maintenance in many plants.
Can it replace a fuse and overload relay?
Yes. A motor starter protector provides both short-circuit and overload protection, so in a typical starter it replaces the fuses and the separate overload relay.
