Schneider Electric 8536SBA2V02S Motor Starter

Schneider Electric’s Square D 8536SBA2V02S is a NEMA Type S non-reversing motor starter in a Size 0 enclosure designed for full‑voltage starting of 3‑phase motors. This three‑pole device is rated for up to 18 A and 5 HP at 460 VAC, carries a 5 kA SCCR, and uses a 120 VAC coil operating at 60 Hz for control circuits. It comes in a NEMA 12 enclosure with a TAA listing, making it suitable for indoor environments where protection against dust and splashes is desired. The designation “melting alloy” reflects the starter’s built‑in protective elements within the listed ratings. With a non‑reversing action, this unit provides straightforward on/off motor control in industrial panels and equipment, helping prevent unintended motor reversal while delivering reliable, compact performance for 3‑phase start/stop applications. The A2V02S suffix identifies the coil configuration and voltage for this size, confirming compatibility with standard control circuits while maintaining the robust, full‑voltage starting characteristics essential for small‑to‑medium motors.
