Switching rates: 1000 ops/h in AC-1 (resistive loads), 750 ops/h in AC-3 (motor running), but only 250 ops/h in AC-4 (plugging or inching duty). If your application does frequent reversing or jogging, the AC-4 rate is the one that governs thermal rise. ## Wiring termination and conductor sizes The coil terminals are screw-type, so no special crimp tool needed for the magnet coil. Main contact tightening torque is 16 to 8 Nm — the range covers both smaller conductors (lower torque to avoid crushing the wire) and larger ones (higher torque for a gas-tight connection).","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RT2026-1AL20-ZW96 SIRIUS Contactor, S0","metaDescription":"Siemens 3RT2026-1AL20-ZW96 SIRIUS power contactor, size S0, 45 mm wide.
