Product details

The Siemens 3RH1131-2JB40 is a SIRIUS coupling relay designed for switching auxiliary circuits — think signal isolation between a PLC output and a contactor coil, or interposing between a safety relay and a motor starter. It is not a main power contactor; its job is switching control loads up to 10 A in AC-12 duty (resistive loads and solid-state outputs). The 24 VDC coil draws 2.3 W both on pickup and hold, which is useful to know for power supply budgeting in a panel with multiple relays.

Zero side clearance is required, meaning you can butt it against adjacent devices without derating. Screw terminals accept 2x 0.25 to 2.5 mm² solid or stranded wire.

The headline rating is 10 A at AC-12 (resistive loads and solid-state outputs). AC-12 is the category for switching resistive loads and optocoupler inputs — common in control panels. The built-in diode surge suppressor across the coil means you don't need an external flyback diode for DC switching; just watch polarity. Three instantaneous NO contacts (no delayed or make-before-break) give you three isolated signal paths from one coil.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional alternative — 3RT1015-1BB42?

The 3RT1015-1BB42 is a SIRIUS contactor, not a coupling relay. The 3RH1131-2JB40 is specifically a coupling relay for auxiliary circuits, with a 24 VDC coil and built-in diode suppression. The 3RT1015 is a main power contactor with different coil options and no integrated suppression. They are not drop-in substitutes without rewiring the control circuit.

What is the depth of 3RH1131-2JB40?

The depth is 73 mm, part of the size S00 footprint.

What wire size does the terminal accept?

The screw terminals accept 2x 0.25 to 2.5 mm² solid or stranded wire.

Will it drop into a panel specified around 3RT1015-1BB42?

Mechanically, both are size S00 with the same 45 mm width and DIN-rail mounting, so the footprint fits. Electrically, the 3RH1131-2JB40 is a coupling relay with a 24 VDC coil and built-in diode suppression; the 3RT1015-1BB42 is a contactor with a 24 VDC coil but no suppression. The control wiring differs — the coupling relay expects a DC signal with polarity, while the contactor may be driven differently. Verify the control circuit before swapping.

What compliance documentation is available?

The part is a Siemens SIRIUS product, which typically carries CE, UL, CSA, and CCC certifications. Specific declaration files (RoHS, REACH) are available from Siemens upon request. The evidence does not list individual cert numbers.
