Overview
The Siemens 3RT2645-1AP03 SIRIUS capacitor contactor is a specialized 3-pole switching device designed for the demanding requirements of reactive power compensation systems. It is engineered to switch capacitive loads up to 75 kVAr at 400 V (AC-6b), making it ideal for applications involving choked or unchoked capacitors.
A key feature of this contactor is its integrated precharging resistors, which are engaged by leading auxiliary contacts before the main contacts close. This intelligent design effectively limits the peak inrush current, minimizing stress on the power grid and extending the lifespan of the connected components.
This S3 size contactor is equipped with a 230 V AC, 50 Hz control coil and features a screw terminal for secure and reliable wiring. It includes one normally open (1 NO) and one normally closed (1 NC) auxiliary contact, providing flexibility for control and signaling circuits. The robust construction and adherence to international standards like IEC 60947 ensure reliable performance and a long service life in industrial environments.
