Overview
The Siemens 3RT2036-3XF40-0LA2 is a high-performance SIRIUS 3RT2 traction contactor (Size S2) engineered for reliable switching of motors, particularly in demanding industrial and railway applications (traction). This 3-pole contactor is designed for extended application ranges, offering superior performance with a compact design and high contact reliability.
Featuring a powerful 110 V DC solid-state operating mechanism and an integrated varistor for surge protection, it ensures a long service life under tough ambient conditions. The combination of screw terminals for the main circuit and spring-loaded terminals for the control/auxiliary circuit provides flexible and vibration-proof wiring solutions.
