Overview
The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2046-1AT60 is a high-performance power contactor engineered for reliable switching and control of electric motors and other resistive loads. As part of the globally recognized SIRIUS modular system, this size S3 contactor combines robust construction with cutting-edge technology to ensure long-lasting operation and exceptional efficiency.
With a rated operational current of 95 A for AC-3/AC-3e applications and a switching capacity of up to 45 kW at 400 V, the 3RT2046-1AT60 is an ideal solution for a wide range of industrial control applications. Its compact design and a versatile 600 V AC, 60 Hz coil voltage make it suitable for various international standards.
Key Benefit
- High Performance: Capable of handling demanding motor control applications with a 95 A rating and 45 kW power capacity.
- Space-Saving Design: The compact S3 frame size allows for efficient panel design and space optimization.
- Versatile Auxiliary Contacts: Features a built-in 1 NO + 1 NC auxiliary contact configuration, simplifying control circuit wiring and reducing the need for external components.
- Reliable Connections: Equipped with secure and durable screw terminals for a strong, vibration-resistant connection.
- Global Compatibility: Designed to meet international standards with its 600 V AC, 60 Hz coil, making it suitable for global use.
- Long Service Life: Part of the SIRIUS modular series known for its high mechanical and electrical endurance, leading to reduced maintenance and downtime.
Function
- Motor Switching: Efficiently and safely switches electric motors ON and OFF.
- Load Control: Suitable for switching various resistive and inductive loads in industrial automation systems.
- Auxiliary Signaling: The integrated auxiliary contacts provide status feedback (NO for “ON,” NC for “OFF”) to the control system or PLC.
- Remote Operation: Can be controlled remotely via a 600V AC signal applied to the coil terminals.
- Overload Protection (when combined with a thermal overload relay): When paired with a suitable SIRIUS overload relay, it forms a complete motor starter for protection against overcurrents.
