Product details

Rated for 37 kW at 400 V 50 Hz and 18.6 kW at 690 V, this contactor handles the motor starting and stopping duties common on pumps, conveyors, and compressors in a 400 V three-phase line.

The main current circuit uses screw-type terminals, accepting solid conductors 2x (0.25... 2.5 mm²) and stranded 2x (10... 50 mm²). That range covers control wiring up to motor power cables, so you can land both the coil wires and the load conductors without adapters. Switching capacity at 24 V is 10 A, at 230 V is 6 A, and at 400 V is 3 A — these are the contactor's rated operational currents for the main contacts across common control and power voltages. The AC-1 maximum switching rate is 1 000 cycles per hour, AC-3 also 1 000 1/h, while AC-4 (plugging/inching) is limited to 300 1/h, which governs how aggressively you can cycle the load. Arcing time spans 10 to 19 ms at AC, with a narrower 10 to 15 ms window for the arc itself. That's fast enough to limit contact wear in normal motor switching but matters if you're coordinating with upstream protection — the arc clears before the breaker's short-time delay. IP20 on the front with the cover or box terminal installed; the terminal body itself is IP00. That means the front is touch-safe in a closed panel, but the wiring compartment expects enclosure protection — standard for a panel-mounted contactor.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional second-source to 3RT1044-3AN20-1AA0?

The peer 3RT1044-1FB46 is a size S3 SIRIUS contactor with similar ratings, but it uses a different coil voltage or auxiliary configuration — verify the coil rating and terminal layout before substituting into a panel designed around the -3AN20-1AA0.

Will 3RT1044-3AN20-1AA0 drop into a panel specified around 3RT1044-1FB46 without rewiring?

Both are size S3 and share the same mounting footprint on 35 mm or 75 mm DIN rail, so mechanical fit is identical. However, the coil voltage and auxiliary contact arrangement may differ — check the nameplate coil rating before swapping.
