Product details

Part identity and sourcing posture

The 45 mm width (S0 frame) means it fits alongside other S0 devices without odd spacing.

For heavy jogging or plugging duty (AC-4), it is rated 15.5 A at 400 V, which is the current the contacts can interrupt under those severe conditions. The AC-12 rating of 10 A covers resistive and transformer loads on the main contacts. For DC switching, the ratings drop off sharply: 10 A at 24 V, 2 A at 60 V, 1 A at 110 V, 0.3 A at 220 V — this is typical for a contactor of this size, so do not expect it to handle heavy DC loads without derating.

Short-circuit coordination and wiring

Type 1 coordination allows a 100 A fuse but the contactor may need replacement after the fault. This matters when specifying the branch circuit protection for a motor starter. Main circuit terminals accept screw-type connections: 2x (0.25...2.5 mm²) solid, 2x (1...2.5 mm²) or 2x (2.5...6 mm²) stranded, up to 2x 10 mm² maximum. AWG equivalents are 2x (16...12) and 2x (14...10), with a single 8 AWG maximum. Strip and torque to the values on the nameplate.

The front is IP20 (finger-safe), the terminals are IP00 — so it needs enclosure protection in dusty or wet environments.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional alternative to the 3RT1026-3AL20-ZW97?

The 3RT1017-1AP01 is a smaller S00 frame contactor with lower ratings — it will not drop into a panel wired for the S0 frame without rewiring and a different DIN-rail footprint. The 3RT1034-1AN60-1AA0 is a larger S2 frame unit. The 3RT1026-3AL20-ZW97 is the correct S0 frame part for 11 kW AC-2 motor loads; there is no direct drop-in second source from the same series.

What is the depth of the 3RT1026-3AL20-ZW97?

The depth is 90 mm, with a width of 45 mm and height of 85 mm. This is the S0 frame envelope.

What compliance documentation is available for this contactor?

The part carries the SIRIUS brand from Siemens and is designed to IEC/EN 60947-4-1 standards. Specific RoHS, REACH, and UL documentation is typically provided with the shipment or available from the manufacturer upon request.
