This makes the contactor suitable for unheated electrical rooms or outdoor enclosures provided condensation is managed. ## Sourcing and lifecycle — current production, quoted to order The contactor carries a RoHS compliance date of October 1, 2009, indicating it meets the EU RoHS substance restrictions from that date forward.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RH2131-2BE40 SIRIUS Auxiliary Contactor, Size S00","metaDescription":"Siemens 3RH2131-2BE40 SIRIUS auxiliary contactor, size S00, 45 mm wide, 3 NO contacts, screw and snap-on DIN rail mounting.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Contactors"],"specifications":{"Depth":"73 mm","Width":"45 mm","at AC":"10 000 1/h","at DC":"7 ... 13 ms","title":"3RH2131-2BE40","Height":"70 mm","Upwards":"10 mm","Forwards":"10 mm","Downwards":"10 mm","Arcing Time":"10 ... 15 ms","At The Side":"6 mm","Rated Value":"60 V","description":"Contactor relay, 3 NO + 1 NC, 60 V DC, Size S00, Spring-type terminal","Initial Value":"0.8","During Storage":"-55 ... +80 °C","lifecycle_stage":"current","During Operation":"-25 ... +60 °C","Fastening Method":"screw and snap-on mounting onto 35 mm standard mounting rail","Full-Scale Value":"1.1","Mounting Position":"+/-180° rotation possible on vertical mounting surface; can be tilted forward and backward by +/- 22.5° on vertical mounting surface","Size Of Contactor":"S00","Solid Or Stranded":"2x (0,5 ... 4 mm²)","Product Brand Name":"SIRIUS","Degree Of Pollution":"3","Product Designation":"Auxiliary contactor","at 24 V rated value":"10 A","at 60 V rated value":"4.7 A","Of Contactor Typical":"30 000 000","at 110 V rated value":"3 A","at 220 V rated value":"1.2 A","at 230 V rated value":"10 A","at 400 V rated value":"3 A","at 440 V rated value":"0.5 A","at 500 V rated value":"2 A","at 600 V rated value":"0.26 A","at 690 V rated value":"1 A","Instantaneous Contact":"3","Relative Humidity Minimum":"10 %","Substance Prohibitance (Date)":"10/01/2009","Product Extension Auxiliary Switch":"Yes","closing power of magnet coil at DC":"4 W","holding power of magnet coil at DC":"4 W","Surge Voltage Resistance Rated Value":"6 kV","at AWG cables for auxiliary contacts":"2x (20 ... 12)","operating frequency at DC-12 maximum":"1 000 1/h","operating frequency at DC-13 maximum":"1 000 1/h","operational current at AC-12 maximum":"10 A","reference code according to IEC 81346-2":"K","Finely Stranded With Core End Processing":"2x (0.5 ... 2.5 mm²)","Contact Reliability Of Auxiliary Contacts":"1 faulty switching per 100 million (17 V, 1 mA)","with low demand rate according to SN 31920":"40 %","Finely Stranded Without Core End Processing":"2x (0.5 ... 2.5 mm²)","with high demand rate according to SN 31920":"73 %","number of NC contacts for auxiliary contacts":"1","number of NO contacts for auxiliary contacts":"3","Type Of Voltage Of The Control Supply Voltage":"DC","contact rating of auxiliary contacts according to UL":"A600 / Q600","Identification Number And Letter For Switching Elements":"31 E","Installation Altitude At Height Above Sea Level Maximum":"2 000 m","Of The Contactor With Added Auxiliary Switch Block Typical":"10 000 000","Type Of Electrical Connection For Auxiliary And Control Circuit":"spring-loaded terminals","insulation voltage with degree of pollution 3 at AC rated value":"690 V","Of The Contactor With Added Electronically Optimized Auxiliary Switch Block Typical":"5 000 000","Design Of The Fuse Link For Short-Circuit Protection Of The Auxiliary Switch Required":"fuse gL/gG: 10 A","design of the miniature circuit breaker for short-circuit protection of the auxiliary circuit up to 230 V":"C characteristic: 6 A; 0.4 kA"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/a0eff0b88b7d88cfd64ce9364cef692c.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://support.industry.siemens.com/webbackend/api/ProductSupport/TechnicalData?language=en&region=cn&productId=392523&mlfb=3RH2131-2BE40"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"How can I order the 3RH2131-2BE40 and get a quote?","answer":"The 3RH2131-2BE40 is quoted to order against your BOM quantity.
