The Siemens SIRIUS 3RH1911-1HA13 is a 4-pole auxiliary switch block (1 normally open + 3 normally closed contacts) designed for use with SIRIUS contactor relays and power contactors. The DC-13 switching curve tells you exactly what it handles at each voltage: 10 A at 24 V, 4.7 A at 60 V, 3 A at 110 V, 1.2 A at 220 V, 0.5 A at 440 V, and 0.26 A at 600 V. For AC-15 duty, it delivers 1 A at 690 V. This is the rating that governs whether the block clears the inductive load of a DC solenoid or AC contactor coil without welding the contacts. Mechanical service life is typical 10 million switching cycles.
Lifecycle and replacement
The 3RH1911-1HA13 is a phased-out product. The official Siemens successor is the SIRIUS 3RH2 series, with preferred successor type 3RH2911-1HA13. For new designs or BOM freeze replacements, the 3RH2911-1HA13 is the drop-in intended by the manufacturer.
