Star-delta contactor assembly, S3 frame
The Siemens 3RA2444-8XF32-1AP0 is a pre-assembled SIRIUS contactor assembly for star-delta (wye-delta) motor starting. It ships with three contactors: two 3RT2045-1AP00 units for the line and delta legs, and one 3RT2035-1AP00 for the star leg. Rated at 55 kW at 400 V AC-3 (90 kW at 690 V), this assembly handles the starting current transition without external interlocking wiring — the mechanical interlock is built into the supplied RS assembly kit 3RA2943-2C.
