Overview
The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2317-1AP60 is a high-performance 4-pole contactor designed for reliable switching of weak or non-inductive loads (AC-1) in industrial applications. Part of the trusted Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2 series, this robust contactor offers exceptional durability and flexibility for a wide range of control and power switching tasks. With a rated current of 22 A at 400 V / 40 °C and a versatile 220 V AC (50 Hz) / 240 V AC (60 Hz) control supply voltage, it’s an ideal choice for disconnecting loads, power generation plants, and transfer switching applications. Its compact S00 size and convenient screw terminals simplify installation and maintenance.
