3.7 Functions
Note
Restrictions in relation to monitoring and input functions
When you activate safety-related functions, parameterization of the monitoring or input
functions may be restricted.
3.7.2

Intrinsic protection

The SIMATIC ET 200SP motor starter protects itself against overload. Intrinsic device
protection cannot be parameterized or switched off. You can find more information on the
permissible ambient temperatures in chapter "Permissible ambient temperatures up to 1000
m above sea level. (Page 23)".
If the intrinsic protection becomes active, the follow responses occur:
● The motor trips.
● Emergency starting is not possible in the case of tripping due to intrinsic device
protection.
● The diagnostics message "Switching element overload" is output in data set 92
(Page 126).
● The entry "Number of switching element overload trips" in data set 95 (Page 130) is
incremented by 1.
If the intrinsic device protection was active, the device's diagnostics function indicates a
device fault.
NOTICE
Damage from operating capacitive loads
When using capacitive loads, the switching components in the SIMATIC ET 200SP motor
starter can be damaged by excessively high making currents.
Operation in series with a frequency converter is not allowed.

Basic functions/parameters during first commissioning

The default settings listed in the following two chapters apply to first commissioning and as
defaults for the programming devices (exception: rated operational current). When a motor
starter is set to the commissioning mode a further time, it uses the values that were valid
when the technology supply voltage was last lost.
