Product details

SIRIUS 3RT1034-3AF04-ZW96 — Power Contactor, Size S2

Rated at 15 kW for AC-2 duty at 400 V, this contactor handles slip-ring motor starting and reversing. For AC-4 duty (plugging, inching), it carries 29 A at 400 V — the rating that governs frequent jogging or reversing applications where contact wear accumulates faster than AC-3 cycling.

Termination & Wiring

Accepts 2x (0.75…25 mm²) stranded or 2x (0.25…2.5 mm²) solid conductors. The 16 mm² minimum at 40 °C derating ensures the power path doesn't become the thermal bottleneck in a warm cabinet.

Switching Performance & Mechanical Life

Mechanical life typical 10,000,000 operations. Maximum switching rates: 1,200 cycles/h at AC-1 (resistive), 1,000 at AC-3, 750 at AC-2, 250 at AC-4. Arcing time 10…15 ms; pick-up at AC 7…20 ms. Coil operates across 0.8…1.1 x rated voltage at 50 Hz. Side-by-side mounting allowed without derating — useful for multi-contactor motor starter groups.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings for AC motor switching?

AC-2 at 400 V: 15 kW. AC-4 at 400 V: 29 A. These are the ratings that matter for slip-ring motor starting (AC-2) and plugging/inching duty (AC-4).

Will 3RT1034-3AF04-ZW96 drop into a panel specified around 3RT1036-1AB00?

No — the 3RT1036 is a larger frame size. The 3RT1034 is size S2 (55 mm wide, 112 mm high, 164 mm deep) and won't share the same mounting footprint or terminal layout as the 3RT1036 without enclosure modifications.

What compliance documentation does this contactor carry?

RoHS compliant per the substance prohibition date of 05/01/2012. Pollution degree 3 rated. IP20 front / IP00 terminal protection. The SIRIUS series typically carries UL/CSA/CE certification, though specific marks for this variant should be verified against the nameplate.
