What this starter does
The SIEMENS 3RV2031-4PA10 is a manual motor starter rated for 28 to 36 amps AC and up to 690 volts AC. It protects three-phase motors up to 40 hp at 575 volts and single-phase motors up to 7.5 hp at 230 volts. Industrial maintenance teams use it as a self-protected combination motor controller.
Installing the unit
The starter measures 5.51 inches high, 2.17 inches wide and 5.87 inches deep with a rotary knob operator. It ships with no enclosure, so you must mount it inside a suitable panel or cabinet that meets local code. Wiring follows standard three-pole practice; the main mistake is forgetting to verify the overload dial matches the motor nameplate current.
The critical spec
The overload relay adjustment range is fixed at 28 to 36 amps; if your motor draws less than 28 amps or more than 36 amps full-load, this starter cannot protect it correctly.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the 3RV2031-4PA10 is working correctly after wiring it to a 28-36A motor load?
With power applied, the rotary knob should stay in the ON position without tripping, the motor runs at its rated current, and the overload setting matches the motor full-load amps within the 28-36A range.
What ships with the SIEMENS 3RV2031-4PA10 and what must I source separately?
The starter unit itself is supplied; mounting hardware, enclosure, incoming and motor cables, and any required upstream short-circuit protection are not included.
Which overload setting should I select on the 3RV2031-4PA10 for my application?
Set the rotary dial to the motor’s exact full-load current between 28 and 36 amps; the starter covers the whole range in one unit so no separate version is needed.
