Overview
The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2026-2KA40 is a high-performance 3-pole power contactor designed for robust motor control applications. Part of the trusted SIRIUS line, this S0 frame size contactor offers a powerful combination of efficiency and reliability. With a rated operational current of 25 A for AC-3e/AC-3, and a power rating of 11 kW at 400 V, it is perfectly suited for controlling standard three-phase motors. The 12V DC coil, with a wide control voltage range of 0.7 to 1.25*Uc, ensures compatibility with low-voltage control circuits and is specifically designed for integration with PLC outputs.
Key Features & Benefit
- High Performance: Rated for AC-3e/AC-3 applications with a 25 A current and 11 kW power, providing reliable switching for demanding motor loads.
- PLC Compatibility: The low-voltage 12V DC coil and suitable design make it a perfect fit for direct connection to PLC outputs, simplifying your control system wiring.
- Integrated Protection: Comes with a plugged-in varistor for surge suppression, protecting the coil and the control circuit from voltage spikes and prolonging the device’s lifespan.
- Space-Saving Design: The compact S0 frame size allows for efficient panel layout and space utilization in control cabinets.
- Convenient Wiring: Equipped with spring-loaded terminals for fast, secure, and vibration-resistant connections. This “no-tools” approach saves installation time and ensures a reliable electrical connection.
- Built-in Auxiliary Contacts: Features one normally open (1 NO) and one normally closed (1 NC) auxiliary contact, providing immediate feedback on the contactor’s status for interlocking and signaling purposes.
Function
The Siemens 3RT2026-2KA40 power contactor serves as an electrically operated switch used for switching an electric power circuit. When the 12V DC coil is energized (via a PLC output or another control signal), the main contacts close, allowing power to flow to the connected load (e.g., an electric motor).
Simultaneously, the auxiliary contacts change state, providing a signal that can be used by a PLC or other control system to confirm the status of the contactor. The integrated varistor protects the coil from back-EMF surges when the coil is de-energized, making it a reliable component in any automation system.
