Note: when using the RSGT on high inertia loads (Trip Class 20, 30) ensure that enough time is left between starts to allow the RSGT to cool down. For Trip Class 20 and Class 30 applications we recommend the use of an external overload protection due to the higher FLC setting that is required on RSGT. The FLC setting for Class 20 and Class 30 applications needs to be set to a higher value with respect to the motor FLC in order not to trip the electronic motor overload protection available on the RSGT soft starters. **4** 11/02/2026 RSGT DS ENG Carlo Gavazzi Ltd. **RSGT** **==> picture [40 x 40] intentionally omitted <==** ## **Selection guide (220 - 400 VAC)** **==> picture [483 x 37] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**

**7** 11/02/2026 RSGT DS ENG Carlo Gavazzi Ltd. **RSGT** **==> picture [40 x 40] intentionally omitted <==** ## **Mode of operation** The RSGT series of soft starters works on two distinct self-learning algorithms depending on the ramp-up time settings. **==> picture [484 x 429] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**
Ramp-up Mode of operation
• When the ramp-up selector is in position 1 or 2, the RSGT will follow a self-learning current
limit algorithm.
• As soon as A1-A2 (or ST for RSGT60 models) control voltage signal is applied, the RSGT
1 or 2 seconds will start to ramp-up the motor.
• At the very first start the current limit will be 4 x FLC setting.
• In the subsequent starts, the RSGT will automatically adjust the current limit setting to
maintain the motor start time as close as possible to the ramp-up time setting.
• When the ramp-up selector is in position 5 or above, the RSGT will follow a self-learning
current ramp algorithm.
• The RSGT will start with a set of default parameters for starting torque.
• Depending on the ramp-up time setting, the RSGT will apply a current ramp algorithm to
≥ 5 seconds start the motor as close as possible to the set ramp-up time.
• During the motor start, the current will be limited to a maximum of 3.5 x FLC setting.
• In the subsequent starts, the RSGT will continue to adjust the starting parameters of initial
torque and current ramp to ensure that the motor is started as close as possible to the set
ramp-up time.
• During the ramp-up sequence, the RSGT will check if the motor is rotating.
• If the RSGT detects that the motor is in locked rotor condition as soon as control is applied
and/or the motor has not reached full speed at the set ramp-up time, it will trigger the HP
function.
• This mode of operation is indicated via a faster flashing sequence on the ramping/bypass
HP mode of operation
LED (E5).
• The maximum starting current during HP mode can reach: 4 x Ie for ramp-up setting of 1
or 2 seconds and 3.5 x Ie for ramp-up setting ≥ 5 seconds.
• The RSGT will then go in bypass state as soon as it detects that the motor reached full
speed.
Ramp-down Mode of operation
• During ramp-down, the RSGT works on a torque control algorithm for smoother stopping
1 to 20 seconds of the motor.
(for RSGT 45mm) • As soon as the control voltage signal A1-A2 (or ST for RSGT 60 models) is removed, the
RSGT will slow down the motor gradually according to the ramp-down setting.
1 to 30 seconds • The power semiconductors will be switched OFF as soon as the time (as per ramp-down
(for RSGT 75/120mm) setting) has elapsed unless there is a risk of exceeding the maximum temperature on the
semiconductors. In such a case the RSGT will leave the motor to coast to stop.
• If the ramp-down selector is set to 0, the RSGT will leave the motor to coast to stop (no
0 seconds
ramp-down).

Note 1: for the Canadian application, the control terminals A1, A2 (or A1, A2, ST for RSGT60 versions) of the RSGT devices shall be supplied by a secondary circuit where power is limited by a transformer, rectifier, voltage divider, or similar device that derives power from a primary circuit, and where the short-circuit limit between conductors of the secondary circuit or between conductors and ground is 1500VA or less. The short-circuit volt ampere limit is the product of the open circuit voltage and the short circuit ampere. Note 2: RSGT60GG soft starters require a separate 100 - 240V, 50/60 Hz single phase control source,while RSGT60FF requires 21.6 - 26.4 VAC/DC. Output connections (L1, L2, L3, T1, T2, T3) are not galvanically isolated from the external supply connections (A1, A2, ST). **12** 11/02/2026 RSGT DS ENG Carlo Gavazzi Ltd. **RSGT** **==> picture [40 x 40] intentionally omitted <==** **==> picture [483 x 337] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**

Alarm Overload
The overload alarm can be triggered in case of the following conditions:
Measured current > 1.05 x FLC during transition from ramp-up to bypass and
Alarm description
also during bypass.
Load current > FLC. Trip time will vary according to Trip Class 10.
Depends on the cooling period.
To disable class 10 overload protection follow the instructions in the
Alarm recovery period
“Structure” section.
The RSGT will only recover if the internal temperature is within safe limits.
Consecutive alarms for hard reset 5
The alarm will recover automatically after (approx.) 5 minutes.
(If manual reset mode is applied, alarm can be cleared as instructed in the
Action to recover alarm
“Structure” section).
Note: allow enough time for the motor to cool before attempting the next start.
• Make sure that the FLC setting is according to the current on the motor
name plate.
Troubleshooting • Check for any blockages in the load.
• If overload alarm occurs during ramp-up try to set a shorter ramp-up time or
increase the FLC setting.
