Product details

It carries a 10 A rated operational current at 24 V and can handle up to 5.5 kW at 690 V. Screw-type terminals on the main circuit accept solid conductors from 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²) up to a maximum of 2x (0.75 to 4 mm²), and stranded conductors from 2x (1 to 2.5 mm²) up to a maximum of 2x 10 mm². That covers most panel wiring up to about 10 AWG.

The 45 mm width and 91 mm depth fit the S0 footprint — a common size in Siemens SIRIUS family panels. Side-by-side mounting is allowed, with a 6 mm clearance required at the side for heat dissipation. Operates from -25 to +60 °C ambient, pollution degree 3, and is rated for use up to 2 000 m altitude.

Switching ratings and coordination

The contactor is rated for AC-2 duty at 4 kW at 400 V and AC-4 duty at 8.5 A at 400 V — the AC-4 figure is the one that matters for reversing or plugging duty where the contacts break under load. The coil operates at 50/60 Hz with a voltage tolerance of 0.8 to 1.1 times rated at 50 Hz, and 0.85 to 1.1 at 60 Hz.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key dimensions of this contactor?

Width is 45 mm, height is 85 mm, and depth is 91 mm — the standard S0 footprint for Siemens SIRIUS contactors.

What conductor sizes does the screw terminal accept?

For solid conductors: 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), max 2x (0.75 to 4 mm²). For stranded: 2x (1 to 2.5 mm²), 2x (2.5 to 6 mm²), max 2x 10 mm². AWG equivalents: 2x (16 to 12), 2x (14 to 10), 1x 8.

Does the -ZW96 variant differ electrically from the standard 3RT1023-1AL20?

No electrical difference is documented. The -ZW96 suffix typically indicates a special packaging or customer-specific marking. All rated currents, voltages, and coordination data are identical to the base 3RT1023-1AL20.
