Product details

The Siemens 3RT1026-3BD40 is a SIRIUS power contactor in frame size S0, rated for motor switching at 11 kW under AC-2 duty at 400 V and 15.5 A under AC-4 inching duty at 400 V.

The AC-2 11 kW at 400 V rating covers slip-ring motor starting where the contactor opens under load at reduced current — typical for crane or hoist applications. Type 2 coordination is met with a 35 A gL/gG fuse upstream, meaning the contactor remains usable after a short-circuit fault — no welded contacts, minimal downtime. For Type 1 coordination (replace after fault), a 100 A gL/gG fuse suffices.

Main power circuit uses screw-type terminals accepting 2x (0.25...2.5 mm²) solid or 2x (1...2.5 mm²) stranded, up to 2x 10 mm² max. Auxiliary and control circuits use spring-loaded terminals (2x 0.25...2.5 mm² solid, 2x 24...14 AWG) — no screw tightening needed on the aux side, which speeds panel wiring.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key motor ratings for this contactor?

It is rated 11 kW at AC-2 duty at 400 V (slip-ring motor starting) and 15.5 A at AC-4 duty at 400 V (inching/plugging).

What coordination fusing is required?

Type 2 coordination requires a 35 A gL/gG fuse; Type 1 coordination allows a 100 A gL/gG fuse upstream.

What is the mounting and terminal type?

It snap-mounts onto 35 mm DIN rail per EN 50022. Main terminals are screw-type; auxiliary and control terminals are spring-loaded.
