Siemens 3RT2317-1AP00 Contactor 4-Pole AC-1, 22A, 230V AC, S00 Screw Terminal Original Brand New

Siemens 3RT2317-1AP00 Contactor – High-Performance 4-Pole AC-1 Switching Solution

The Siemens 3RT2317-1AP00 is a robust and reliable 4-pole AC-1 contactor, meticulously engineered for efficient switching of weak or non-inductive loads up to 22 A. Part of the SIRIUS 3RT2 product family, this compact S00 size contactor features convenient screw terminals and operates on a 230 V AC (50/60 Hz) control supply, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.

Overview

The Siemens 3RT2317-1AP00 contactor is designed for demanding environments, adhering to stringent international standards like IEC 60947-1, IEC 60947-4-1, and IEC 60947-5-1 (for auxiliary switches). Its versatile design allows for critical applications such as disconnecting loads or power generation plants from the grid and robust transfer switching.

Key Benefit

• Optimized for Non-Inductive Loads (AC-1): Specifically designed for reliable switching of resistive and slightly inductive loads, ensuring efficient power control.
• Compact S00 Size: Space-saving design for efficient panel layout and integration into control cabinets.
• Reliable Screw Terminals: Provides secure and easy electrical connections, simplifying installation and maintenance.
• Enhanced Safety Features: Built-in provisions for short-circuit, overload, and overvoltage protection for all connections, safeguarding your equipment.
• Expandable Auxiliary Contacts: Integrated auxiliary contact in the basic unit, with further expansion possibilities for flexible control circuit design.
• High Contact Reliability: Auxiliary contacts are optimized for low-voltage and low-current applications, ensuring dependable operation in solid-state circuits.
• Robust Construction: Manufactured to Siemens’ high-quality standards for long-term durability and performance in industrial settings.
• Easy Maintenance: Solenoid coil replacement is possible, extending the lifespan of the contactor.

Function

• Four-Pole Switching: Capable of controlling four independent circuits simultaneously, ideal for complex applications.
• Load Disconnection: Effectively disconnects loads or power generation plants from the electrical grid.
• Transfer Switching: Facilitates seamless switching between different power sources or load configurations.
• Integration with Overload Relays: Compatible with 3RU2 thermal overload relays or 3RB3 electronic overload relays for comprehensive motor protection (when used with motor-driven loads, specific 3RT23 versions apply).
• Control Circuit Integration: Designed for straightforward integration into control circuits with various protection options for control supply voltage.
• Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): Meets requirements for environment category A, ensuring reliable performance in industrial electromagnetic environments.

Protection of Connections:

The Siemens 3RT2317-1AP00 requires appropriate external protection for all connections.

• Main Connections: Short-circuit and overload protection should be implemented based on the technical product data sheet for a free-standing contactor, or refer to the Digital/Configuration Manual for load feeders when combined with overload relays or circuit breakers.
• Auxiliary Connections: Consult the technical product data sheet for information on protecting auxiliary contacts.
• Control Supply Voltage Connections: Protection should align with relevant standards for control panel configuration, considering load characteristics (inrush current, holding power) and potentially using current-limiting power supplies or miniature circuit breakers.

Compatibility & Accessories:

• Overload Relays: Compatible with 3RU2 thermal overload relays or 3RB3 electronic overload relays for motor protection.
• Surge Suppressors: RC elements, varistors, diodes, or diode assemblies can be added for coil damping (ordered separately).
• Auxiliary Switches: Can be expanded with additional auxiliary switches. Refer to the “Auxiliary switches, instantaneous” overview for detailed information on permissible configurations.
• Spare Parts: Solenoid coil replacement is possible. For full accessory and spare part information, refer to “Accessories and spare parts for SIRIUS 3RT2 contactors and SIRIUS 3RH2 contactor relays.”

Application

• Controlling heating elements or lighting systems (non-inductive loads).
• Switching capacitor banks.
• General power switching in industrial and commercial installations.
• Isolation of circuits.
