Product details

This relay carries 2 normally-open instantaneous contacts, and the interrupting capacity varies sharply with voltage — something to watch if you're switching mixed AC loads. At 230 V rated value it handles 10 A, at 400 V rated value it drops to 3 A, and at 690 V rated value it's down to 1 A. The DC side is more restrictive: 10 A at 24 V, 4.7 A at 60 V, and only 0.26 A at 600 V. Those numbers tell you this is a control relay, not a power contactor — use it to pilot larger contactors or signal lamps, not to switch motor loads directly.

It's size S00, which is the smallest Siemens contactor footprint — 45 mm wide, 70 mm tall, 73 mm deep. That 45 mm width means it takes up one standard 45 mm module slot on the rail. You can pack these in a panel without much breathing room.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 3RH2122-2XB40-2LA2 used for?

It's a Siemens SIRIUS contactor relay designed for railway applications — switching control signals, piloting larger contactors, or driving indication lamps in rolling stock and trackside cabinets. The 24-34 VDC coil with built-in varistor handles the noisy DC supply typical of traction batteries.

How do I get pricing and availability for 3RH2122-2XB40-2LA2?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time through our independent distribution network — we source to order against your BOM line.

What's the difference between 3RH2122-2XB40-2LA2 and 3RH2122-1BA40?

The -2XB40-2LA2 includes a built-in varistor surge suppressor across the coil, while the -1BA40 variant does not. Both are size S00 with 2 NO contacts and the same 24-34 VDC coil range. If your railway panel already has external suppression, the -1BA40 saves cost; if not, the -2LA2 version saves a panel component.
