It mounts as a standalone unit in the control panel, with a vertical mounting surface that allows +/-135° rotation and +/-45° tilt front-to-back, giving flexibility in enclosure layout. Trip Class 10 means the relay must trip within 10 seconds at 7.2× the set current — standard for standard-duty motor starting where the acceleration time is under 10 seconds. For longer ramp times (e.g., high-inertia loads), a Class 20 or 30 relay would be needed to avoid nuisance trips during start. The auxiliary contact ratings cover multiple control voltages: 1 A at 24 V, 3 A at 120 V, 2 A at 230 V, and 1 A at 400 V. The 3 A at 120 V rating is the highest current on the auxiliary side — if your PLC input card or control relay draws more than 3 A at 120 V, you need an interposing relay. The 0.22 A at 110/125 V and 0.11 A at 220 V ratings are for lower-power signal circuits. Per-pole power dissipation is 5.7 W. For a three-phase motor, that is 17.1 W total heat to manage inside the enclosure. Shock resistance is 8g for 10 ms, enough for most machine-mounted panels but not for high-vibration applications like crushers or engine-driven generators without additional damping. The relay carries ATEX protection type DMT 98 ATEX G 001, meaning it is approved for use in potentially explosive gas atmospheres (Group II, Category 2G) when installed in the appropriate enclosure. This is a differentiator versus standard overload relays — if the line is in a Zone 1 or Zone 2 area, this part keeps the panel compliant without an additional isolating interface. The 100% relative humidity rating during operation means it can be used in condensing environments (e.g., washdown areas) as long as the IP20 front protection is adequate — the front is finger-safe but not water-sealed, so it must be inside a cabinet with at least IP54 ingress protection if water spray is present. This allows zero-gap stacking vertically and only 6 mm side spacing, which is tight for heat dissipation — the 5.7 W per pole must be considered when packing multiple relays side by side. Wire sizes: solid conductors 2x (0.5 to 2.5 mm²) for auxiliary contacts; stranded conductors 2x (10 to 50 mm²) and 10 to 70 mm² for the main circuit. For AWG, auxiliary contacts accept 2x (20 to 14). The main circuit terminals are sized for the S3 frame — typically up to 70 mm² stranded, which covers motor feeds up to about 150 A depending on cable type. For Type 1 coordination (relay may be damaged but no hazard to personnel), gG 200 A is required. These values define the maximum short-circuit current the relay can withstand with the specified fuse — important for the SCCR declaration on the panel nameplate. ## Compliance Documentation The substance prohibition date of 07/01/2006 aligns with the original EU RoHS directive (RoHS 1) effective July 1, 2006. The reference code according to IEC 81346-2 is F (protective device). The ATEX certificate DMT 98 ATEX G 001 is the primary compliance document for explosive atmospheres; additional declarations (CE, UKCA, EAC) are typically bundled with the product documentation from Siemens. No UL or CSA mark is listed in the evidence — verify with the order desk if UL recognition is required for your jurisdiction.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RU1146-4JD1 SIRIUS Thermal Overload Relay, Size S3,","metaDescription":"Siemens 3RU1146-4JD1 SIRIUS thermal overload relay, Size S3, Trip Class 10.
