FAQs

The ABB 7GSP050178R0006 is designed for open-frame control of motors in the 305, 306, and 309 frame sizes. It supports typical three-phase motor startup within industrial automation environments and is compatible with standard ABB motor control architectures. The open construction facilitates straightforward wiring, fast field servicing, and easy integration with existing control circuits.
REACH information indicates no substances above 0.1 mass percent, supporting regulatory compliance and supplier risk management. The WEEE category shows the product is not in scope, simplifying end-of-life handling and reducing disposal-related planning for maintenance cycles and audits.
The starter is designed for easy integration within ABB control architectures and standard control circuits, with an open-frame design that supports field wiring compatibility. While optimized for ABB ecosystems, its straightforward wiring and standard interfaces facilitate compatibility with common PLCs and third-party control schemes when proper interlocks and interconnections are planned.
Expect improved uptime due to reliable startup control and reduced startup shocks, which lowers mechanical wear on driven equipment. The open-frame design simplifies maintenance, speeding diagnostics and parts replacement. Over time, this translates to lower maintenance labor, shorter downtime, and a lower total cost of ownership for lines with frequent motor starts.
Plan for straightforward wiring access and safe clearance around the open frame for serviceability. Ensure compatibility with your motor frames (305/306/309), proper short-circuit protection, and alignment with your control cabinet layout. Verify conformance with local safety standards and ensure proper documentation for procurement and QA reviews.
