Product details

It carries four normally-open instantaneous contacts, rated for 10 A at 24 V and derated to 1 A at 690 V — so the same block handles 24 VDC PLC outputs and 400 VAC interposing relays without a separate contactor for each voltage level. The 220 VDC coil pulls 3.2 W closing and holding, which means the coil driver sees a steady resistive load, not an inductive spike on dropout.

The 45 mm width and 60 mm height keep it within the S00 footprint, so it slots next to a 3RT2 contactor in a standard motor starter lineup without extra spacing.

Contact ratings and switching reliability

The four NO contacts are rated for conventional free-air thermal current (Ith) across several voltage bands: 10 A at 24 V, 6 A at 230 V, 3 A at 400 V, 2 A at 500 V, and 1 A at 690 V. For the 110 V and 220 V DC control circuits, the ratings drop to 1 A and 0.27 A respectively — a reminder that DC arc extinction is harder than AC, so if you're switching a 220 VDC solenoid, stay under 0.27 A or add a flyback diode. The contact reliability spec calls out one incorrect switching operation per 100 million at 17 V, 1 mA, which is the dry-circuit threshold for PLC input signals; below that, gold-plated contacts would be safer.

Frequently asked questions

What is 3RH1140-2BM40's depth?

The depth is 73 mm.

What wire size does 3RH1140-2BM40 accept for auxiliary contacts?

It accepts 2x (0.25... 2.5 mm²) solid or stranded wire, or 2x (24... 14) AWG.

Will 3RH1140-2BM40 drop into a panel specified for 3RH2140-1BP40?

Both are size S00 auxiliary contactors with screw/snap-on DIN rail mounting, so the footprint and mounting are the same. The 3RH1140-2BM40 carries 4 NO contacts versus the 3RH2140-1BP40's different contact arrangement — check your control schematic for contact count and polarity before swapping.

Where can I buy 3RH1140-2BM40?
