Screw fixing through 11 mm diameter holes is the mounting method — no DIN-rail clip on this frame, so plan for drilled backplate or sub-panel with the hole pattern matching the S10 footprint. ## Power and control termination — cable sizing matters Main power circuit accepts stranded cable from 70 mm² up to 240 mm² — that is a heavy lug range, typical for a contactor this size feeding a motor or transformer bank. ## Switching rates and thermal envelope Rated switching frequency at AC-3 duty (motor switching) is 500 cycles per hour maximum — that is one operation every 7.2 seconds, which covers most pump and conveyor cycling but rules out high-speed jogging or reversing service without stepping up to a larger frame or a dedicated reversing contactor pair. At AC-4 duty (plugging/inching) the ceiling drops to 130 cycles per hour, so if the application requires frequent reversing under load, the thermal rise in the arc chamber will accumulate faster than the 500/h AC-3 rate suggests.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RT1066-6AP36 SIRIUS Power Contactor, S10, 210 mm","metaDescription":"Siemens 3RT1066-6AP36 SIRIUS power contactor, size S10, 202 mm depth, 145 mm width, 210 mm height.
