Product details

It mounts via screw or snap-on onto 35 mm standard mounting rail per DIN EN 50022, with a width of 45 mm, height 85 mm, and depth 101 mm — a compact footprint for a 24 VDC-coil contactor rated to switch 10 A at 24 V and 2 A at 60 V in DC circuits. AC-2 at 400 V is rated at 4 kW, suited for slip-ring motor starting. At 690 V the contactor handles 5.5 kW, and at 500 V it handles 4.5 kW — these are the motor power ratings for standard three-phase induction motors.

The DC coil draws 5.4 W both for closing and holding — no power drop after pick-up, so the supply must sustain that continuously. Rated control supply voltage is 48 V DC. The contactor also carries DC switching ratings at 110 V (1 A) and 220 V (0.3 A), useful for breaking DC auxiliary loads in the same panel.

Short-circuit coordination and wiring

Main circuit terminals accept screw-type connections: solid 2x (0.5...1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75...2.5 mm²), max 2x (0.75...4 mm²), or stranded 2x (1...2.5 mm²), 2x (2.5...6 mm²), max 2x 10 mm². AWG equivalents are 2x (16...12), 2x (14...10), 1x 8.

Side-by-side mounting is permitted with 6 mm spacing to adjacent devices. Front face is IP20 (finger-safe); the terminals themselves are IP00 (no protection), so the panel enclosure provides the overall ingress protection. Pollution degree 3 (industrial environment with conductive pollution).

Frequently asked questions

What are the key motor ratings for the 3RT1023-1BW40?

AC-4 at 400 V is 8.5 A; AC-2 at 400 V is 4 kW; at 690 V it handles 5.5 kW; at 500 V it handles 4.5 kW. These cover reversing duty and standard motor starting.

Where can I buy the 3RT1023-1BW40?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Submit a request for quote; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

Will the 3RT1023-1BW40 drop into a panel specified for the 3RT1023-1AL20?

Both are S0-frame SIRIUS contactors with the same physical footprint (45 mm width, 85 mm height, 101 mm depth) and identical DIN-rail mounting. The difference is the coil voltage — the 1BW40 uses 48 V DC, while the 1AL20 uses a different coil rating. Panel cutouts and wiring terminals are the same; verify the control voltage matches your circuit before swapping.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for the 3RT1023-1BW40?

As a SIRIUS product, it carries CE marking for the European market and is designed to meet relevant IEC/EN standards for contactors (IEC 60947-4-1). RoHS and REACH declarations are available from Siemens documentation. The reference code per DIN EN 81346-2 is Q.
