1. Basic Information

• Model: MSW-2S

• Brand: SEW-EURODRIVE

• Product Type: Contact‑based switching element (reversing starter)

• System: MOVI‑SWITCH® (decentralized drive, up to 3 kW)

• Mounting: On motor or near‑motor installation

2. Key Specifications

• Control: CW/CCW (forward/reverse), independent of phase sequence

• Signals: Binary inputs (CW, CCW, OK); 2×M12 connectors

• Option: Integrated AS‑interface available

• Brake: Integrated brake control + electrical manual release (BGM rectifier)

• Voltage: 3‑phase 208–480 VAC, 50/60 Hz

• Power Rating: Up to 3 kW (400 V)

• Protection: IP65 (enclosure), suitable for harsh industrial environments

3. Main Features

1. Reversing Control: True forward/reverse operation regardless of incoming phase sequence.

2. Contact‑Based: Uses electromechanical contacts for reliable switching (contrast with contactless MSW‑1E).

3. Brake Management: Integrated brake control with manual release function.

4. Decentralized: Mounts directly on motor, reducing cabinet wiring and space.

5. Industrial Grade: IP65 protection, robust for factory floor use.

4. Applications

• Conveyors, packaging machines, material handling

• Small pumps, fans, and general machinery

• Decentralized automation (no central control cabinet)

• Systems requiring reversing motor operation
