13.2.7
Setting the motor current
I
e
potentiometer
The rated operational current of the motor must be set with the I
e
potentiometer according to
the mains voltage and the motor connection (wye-delta). The electronic motor overload
protection also refers to this set value if it is active. For the permissible settings referred to
the required motor overload trip class, refer to chapter Motor current settings (Page 120).

Setting the current limiting value
xI
e
potentiometer
Representation valid for 3RW40 S0, S2,
S3 up to product version E06, and

r-
sion E10.
Representation valid for 3RW40 S0, S2, S3
for product version E07 and higher, and
3RW40 S6 and S12 for product version E11
and higher.
The current limiting value is set with the xI
e
potentiometer to the maximum required starting
current as a factor of the set rated motor current (I
e
).
