Datasheet
**Data sheet** ## Manual motor starter MS132 Manual motor starters are electromechanical protection devices for the main circuit. They are used mainly to switch motors manually ON/OFF and protect them fuse less against short-circuit, overload and phase failures. Fuse less protection with a manual motor starter saves costs, space and ensures a quick reaction under short-circuit condition, by switching off the motor within milliseconds. Fuse less starter combinations are setup together with contactors. Description - Overload protection – trip class 10 Ordering details MS132 screw terminal - Phase loss sensitivity - Disconnect function - Temperature compensation from -25 … +60 °C - Adjustable current setting for overload protection - Suitable for three- and single-phase application - Trip-free mechanism - Trip indication - Clear switch position indication ON/OFF/TRIP - Lockable handle |Setting range<br>[A]|Type|Trip<br>class|Order code|Packaging<br>unit [Pcs]|Weight<br>[g]| |---|---|---|---|---|---| |0.10 ... 0.16|MS132-0.16|10A|1SAM350000R1001|1|215| |0.16 ... 0.25|MS132-0.25|10|1SAM350000R1002|1|215| |0.25 ... 0.40|MS132-0.4|10|1SAM350000R1003|1|215| |0.40 ... 0.63|MS132-0.63|10|1SAM350000R1004|1|215| |0.63 ... 1.00|MS132-1.0|10|1SAM350000R1005|1|215| |1.00 ... 1.60|MS132-1.6|10|1SAM350000R1006|1|265| |1.60 ... 2.50|MS132-2.5|10|1SAM350000R1007|1|265| |2.50 ... 4.00|MS132-4.0|10|1SAM350000R1008|1|265| |4.00 ... 6.30|MS132-6.3|10|1SAM350000R1009|1|265| |6.30 ... 10.00|MS132-10|10|1SAM350000R1010|1|265| |10.00 ... 16.00|MS132-16|10|1SAM350000R1011|1|310| |16.00 ... 20.00|MS132-20|10|1SAM350000R1013|1|310| |20.00 ... 25.00|MS132-25|10|1SAM350000R1014|1|310| |25.00 ... 32.00|MS132-32|10|1SAM350000R1015|1|310| ||||||| Note: MS132 with pre-assembled auxiliary conact HKF1-11, please order as follow 1SAM250005Rxxxx ## Application The manual motor starters protect the load and the installation against short-circuit and overload. They are three pole protection devices with thermal tripping elements for overload protection and electro-magnetic tripping elements for shortcircuit protection. Furthermore, they provide a disconnect function for safely isolation of the installation and the supply and can be used for the manual switching of loads. The manual motor starters have a setting scale in Amperes, which allows the direct adjusting of the device without any additional calculation. In compliance with international and national standards, the setting current is the rated current of the motor and not the tripping current (no tripping at 1.05 x I, tripping at 1.2 x I; I = setting current). ## Operation mode ## Single-phase operation ## Three-phase operation ## Connections **==> picture [313 x 168] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Terminals 1L1, 3L2, 5L3<br>oe i ri<br>z<br>ABE 5 15<br>Switch position TRIP<br>Lockable handle<br>Trip indication<br>Test function<br>for short-circuit<br>Current setting range<br>Terminals 2T1, 4T2, 6T3<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## Resistance and power losses per phase ||||||| |---|---|---|---|---|---| |Type|Lower value<br>setting range<br>[A]|Upper value<br>setting range<br>[A]|Resistance<br>per phase<br>[W]|Power loss per Phase [W] at<br>Lower value of<br>Upper value of<br>settingrange<br>settingrange|| |MS132-0.16|0.10|0.16|66.00|0.7|1.7| |MS132-0.25|0.16|0.25|25.50|0.7|1.7| |MS132-0.4|0.25|0.40|10.38|0.7|1.7| |MS132-0.63|0.40|0.63|4.36|0.7|1.7| |MS132-1.0|0.63|1.00|1.605|0.7|1.7| |MS132-1.6|1.00|1.60|0.648|0.7|1.7| |MS132-2.5|1.60|2.50|0.272|0.7|1.7| |MS132-4.0|2.50|4.00|0.106|0.7|1.7| |MS132-6.3|4.00|6.30|0.046|0.7|1.7| |MS132-10|6.30|10.0|0.024|0.9|2.4| |MS132-16|10.0|16.0|0.011|1.1|2.8| |MS132-20|16.0|20.0|0.0057|1.5|2.3| |MS132-25|20.0|25.0|0.0045|1.8|2.8| |MS132-32|25.0|32.0|0.0030|1.9|3.1| ||||||| 2 2CDC131021D0201 Dimensions MS132 ≤ 10 A MS132 > 10 A **==> picture [258 x 188] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> 81,25 / 3,2"<br>72,4 / 2,85"<br>1,5 / 0,06" 5,5 / 0,22" 43,5 / 1,71"<br>14 / 0,55" 14 / 0,55"<br>45 / 1,77"<br>2CDC242015F0009<br> mm / inch<br>1,7 / 0,1"<br>90 / 3,54" 75 / 2,95" 35 / 1,38" 45 / 1,77"<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## MS132 ≤ 10 A + screw fixing kit **==> picture [258 x 200] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Ø 4,5 / Ø 0,18" 9 / 0,35" 5,4 / 0,21"<br>17,5 / 0,69"<br>2CDC242017F0009<br> mm / inch<br>122 / 4,8" 110 / 4,33"<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> **==> picture [258 x 188] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> 81,05 / 3,19"<br>72,2 / 2,84"<br>1,5 / 0,06" 5,5 / 0,22" 43,3 / 0,22"<br>14 / 0,55" 14 / 0,55"<br>45 / 1,77"<br>2CDC242016F0009<br> mm / inch<br>1,7 / 0,1"<br>97,8 / 3,85" 75 / 2,95" 35 / 1,38" 45 / 1,77"<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## MS132 > 10 A + screw fixing kit **==> picture [258 x 201] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Ø 4,5 / Ø 0,18" 9 / 0,35" 5,4 / 0,21"<br>17,5 / 0,69"<br>2CDC242018F0009<br> mm / inch<br>122 / 4,8" 110 / 4,33"<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## Wiring diagram **==> picture [123 x 101] intentionally omitted <==** 2CDC131021D0201 3 Data at TA = 40 °C and at rated values, if nothing else indicated **==> picture [527 x 637] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Type MS132<br>Technical data Terminals<br>Main circuit 1L1-3L3-5L5<br>2T1-4T2-6T3<br>Rated operational voltage Ue acc. to IEC/EN 60947-1 AC 690 V<br>DC -<br>Rated operational current I e see separate table<br>Rated current In / see „Rated Operational Current“<br>Conventional free-air thermal current I th<br>Setting range -
