Overview
The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2346-1NB30-4AA0 is a high-performance 4-pole power contactor designed for switching AC-3 loads up to 95 A (45 kW at 400 V). Part of the robust SIRIUS 3RT23 series, this contactor offers exceptional reliability and a wide range of applications, including the switching of weak or non-inductive loads (AC-1), disconnecting loads or power generation plants from the grid, and transfer switching. Its compact Size S3 design and integrated varistor for surge suppression make it a versatile and dependable choice for industrial control systems.
Key Features & Function
- High Power Rating: Capable of switching 95 A (AC-3) and 45 kW at 400 V, suitable for demanding motor control applications and resistive loads.
- 4-Pole Configuration: Provides four main power poles for comprehensive circuit control.
- Wide Operating Voltage: Features a universal 20-33 V AC/DC control supply voltage (50/60 Hz), offering flexibility in control circuit design.
- Integrated Varistor: Comes with a pre-installed varistor for effective damping of opening surges in the coil, enhancing product longevity and system stability.
- Auxiliary Contacts: Includes 1 Normally Open (NO) and 1 Normally Closed (NC) auxiliary contact for feedback and control circuit integration. These contacts are highly reliable, even for low voltages (≤ 110 V) and currents (≤ 100 mA), making them ideal for solid-state circuits.
- Screw Terminals: Equipped with robust screw terminals for secure and straightforward wiring of both main and auxiliary circuits.
- Compact Size S3: Optimized for space-saving installation within control panels.
