Product details

It's a signal-switching block, not a power contactor — it routes control signals and feedback from the main contactor or starter to the PLC or relay logic. The coil pulls in on 24 VDC nominal, with a closing power draw of 4 W. An integrated diode across the coil handles the flyback spike — no external snubber needed, but verify polarity before wiring: reverse the DC feed and the diode conducts, killing the coil supply.

The contact ratings are given per IEC utilization category at specific voltages. At 24 V rated value it switches 10 A; at 110 V rated value it drops to 3 A; at 220 V rated value it handles 1.2 A. These are resistive-load (AC-12 / DC-12) figures — inductive loads derate further. If you're switching a 24 VDC relay coil, the 10 A rating gives plenty of headroom; if you're piloting a 220 VAC contactor, the 1.2 A limit is the one to size against. Electrical life depends on the switched current and voltage; at the rated AC-15 / DC-13 values expect a fraction of that number. The arcing time spans 10 to 15 ms, which matters for timing coordination in safety circuits.

That covers most cabinet layouts without derating. Dimensions: 45 mm wide, 70 mm high, 73 mm deep — a compact S00 footprint. That's the minimum air gap to grounded metal for the rated insulation voltage; crowding it closer than that risks flashover at 690 V.

Compliance: RoHS substance prohibition date of October 1, 2009, so it meets the EU RoHS directive.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3RH2140-2FM40 and how is it quoted?

It is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for your volume.

Will 3RH2140-2FM40 drop into a panel specified around 3RH2140-1BP40 without rewiring?

Both are SIRIUS size S00 auxiliary contactors on the same 45 mm DIN-rail footprint, so the mechanical fit is identical. The difference is the coil: the -2FM40 is 24 VDC with a built-in diode, while the -1BP40 is a different coil variant. Check your control voltage and polarity before swapping — the wiring pattern to the coil terminals is the same, but the diode makes polarity-sensitive wiring mandatory.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3RH2140-2FM40?

The part carries a RoHS compliance date of October 1, 2009, meeting EU RoHS requirements. It is rated for degree of pollution 3 per IEC 60947-1. Siemens typically provides a declaration of conformity and CE marking for the SIRIUS series; specific UL/CSA file numbers are not listed in this evidence but are standard for the SIRIUS line.
