Reversing Contactor for Motor Control
The Siemens 3RA23468XB301AK6 is a SIRIUS 3RA23 IEC reversing contactor with three main poles, rated 95 A inductive full-load current and 130 A resistive. The 110/120V AC coil (120V at 60 Hz) pulls in the contactor for forward-reverse motor control. The resistive 130 A rating applies for heater banks or resistive loads where the switching duty is less severe. Both numbers are AC-1 / AC-3 class ratings typical for this contactor style.
Compliance documentation covers REACH Art 33. No RoHS or UL marking is listed in the spec record, but the IEC design and European origin typically carry CE. Verify the specific nameplate markings against your local code requirements before committing the line item.
Mount vertically only — the spec calls out vertical mounting position. Screw terminals accept standard power and control wiring. Install inside a panel with a minimum IP54 enclosure for washdown or outdoor environments. The S3 frame has a mechanical durability of 10 million operations — suitable for frequent reversing cycles on conveyors or hoists.
