Product details

It carries three instantaneous normally-open contacts and is driven by a DC coil with a built-in varistor surge suppressor. The part screws or snaps onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail, occupying a 45 x 58 mm footprint and 73 mm depth — a panel-builder's dimension that fits alongside other S00 auxiliaries without crowding.

DC switching ratings — what the voltage columns mean

This relay's DC switching capability is given as a table of rated values per voltage, not a single blanket current. At 24 V it switches 10 A; at 60 V, 4.7 A; at 110 V, 3 A; at 220 V, 1.2 A; at 440 V, 0.5 A; at 600 V, 0.26 A. There are also AC-rated entries at 230 V (10 A), 400 V (3 A), 500 V (2 A), and 690 V (1 A). The pattern is the classic DC arc-extinction curve — the same contact set that handles 10 A at 24 V is derated to a quarter-amp at 600 V.

Coil and timing behaviour

The DC magnet coil draws 4.5 W to close and holds at 0.75 W — a four-to-one ratio that keeps the solenoid seated without overheating the coil on continuous duty. Closing time is 25 to 45 ms, arcing time 10 to 15 ms. The built-in varistor clips the inductive kick on de-energisation; a free-wheel diode is not required but verify polarity if one is added externally.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3RH2131-1XG40-0LA2 and what is the lead time?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm lead-time and price.

What is the closest functional second-source to 3RH2131-1XG40-0LA2?

The 3RH2140-1BP40 is a peer in the same SIRIUS contactor relay family, but it carries a different contact configuration and coil voltage. The 3RH2131-1XG40-0LA2 is specifically designated for railway applications and has a DC coil with varistor suppression. A direct drop-in without rewiring is not guaranteed — verify the contact arrangement and coil rating against your circuit before substituting.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3RH2131-1XG40-0LA2?

The evidence records a substance prohibitance date of 10/01/2009, indicating RoHS compliance for that effective date. Standard Siemens SIRIUS documentation includes a declaration of conformity and environmental compliance sheet; request these with your RFQ.
