It includes three contactors: two 3RT2045-1AG20 units for the line and delta legs, and one 3RT2035-1AG20 for the star leg. The operating frequency in AC-3 duty is 1,000 operations per hour maximum — the mechanical life of the contactors is 10,000,000 cycles typical, meaning the switching rate, not wear, sets the duty cycle limit in most applications. ## Panel fit and mounting constraints The assembly occupies 220 mm width, 180 mm height, and 244 mm depth — confirm the enclosure depth and side clearance before laying out the panel. Mounting position is flexible: the unit can be rotated ±180° on a vertical surface and tilted forward or backward by ±22.5°. Clearances around the assembly: 10 mm upwards, 10 mm forwards, 10 mm downwards, 10 mm to the side, and 0 mm backwards — the back face sits flush against the mounting surface. The magnet coil and auxiliary contacts also use screw terminals — no spring-cage option on this variant. ## Thermal environment and protection coordination The assembly is rated for vibration: 10.6 g at 5 ms and 6.3 g at 10 ms under AC conditions — check the mounting rail rigidity if the panel is on a machine subject to shock loads. The required upstream fuse rating for type 2 coordination is 160 A, using gG NH 3NA, DIAZED 5SB, or NEOZED 5SE fuses. This must be reflected in the panel schedule — the fuse clears a bolted fault before the contactor welds. The included RS assembly kit is 3RA2943-2C — this is the wiring and mechanical link between the three contactors. If the kit is damaged or missing, the assembly cannot be field-repaired without the specific Siemens kit. ## Lifecycle and sourcing posture This is a BOM-specified assembly; the three contactors and the RS kit are factory-matched. Substituting individual contactors from a different batch or manufacturer voids the coordination and the type-2 protection rating.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RA2444-8XF32-1AG2 SIRIUS Star-Delta Starter","metaDescription":"Siemens 3RA2444-8XF32-1AG2 SIRIUS contactor assembly for star-delta starting.
