Why Choose the ABB 1SAM350000R1001 MS132-0.16 Manual Motor Starter?
The ABB 1SAM350000R1001, also designated the MS132-0.16, is a compact and highly reliable manual motor starter and motor protection circuit breaker designed for switching and protecting small motors. It combines manual control, isolation, thermal overload protection and electromagnetic short-circuit protection within a single 45 mm-wide device.
The adjustable thermal release covers motor currents from 0.10 to 0.16 A, allowing the protection setting to be matched precisely to the motor’s rated current. Phase-failure sensitivity, temperature compensation and a Class 10A tripping characteristic provide dependable protection against sustained overloads and abnormal operating conditions.
With a rated motor power of 0.03 kW at 400 V AC and a rated service short-circuit breaking capacity of 100 kA at 400 V AC, the MS132-0.16 provides high-performance protection for small industrial motors. Its lockable rotary handle, trip-free mechanism and clear ON, OFF and TRIP indication support safe and straightforward operation.

High-Capacity Protection for Small Motors
Manual motor starters such as the ABB MS132 use thermal and electromagnetic releases to protect connected motors. The adjustable thermal release responds to sustained overloads, while the electromagnetic release disconnects the circuit within milliseconds when a high short-circuit current occurs.
The MS132-0.16 can be used independently for local motor control or combined with a compatible contactor to create a remotely operated motor starter. ABB auxiliary contacts, signalling contacts, voltage releases, busbars, power in-feed blocks and enclosures are available to adapt the assembly to different applications.
Typical Applications
- Small motors rated up to approximately 0.03 kW at 400 V AC.
- Miniature pumps, fans and ventilation equipment.
- Small conveyors and material-handling systems.
- Machine tools and production equipment.
- Industrial control panels and motor starters.
- Local motor switching and isolation.
