Product details

The 3RT1045-1AL20-ZW97: Snaps onto 35 mm or 75 mm DIN rail (screw and snap-on mounting) and measures 70 mm wide by 146 mm tall by 139 mm deep — the S3 footprint fits a standard panel grid; leave clearance for the arc chamber and terminal access. Main current circuit uses screw-type terminals; stranded cable from 10 to 50 mm², solid from 0.5 to 4 mm² (two per clamp).

Duty and endurance

Rated for 10 million mechanical cycles typical, with AC-3 switching rates up to 1000 operations per hour — enough for frequent-start applications like short-cycle conveyors or indexing tables.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional second-source to 3RT1045-1AL20-ZW97?

The 3RT1044-1FB46 is a smaller S2 frame contactor in the same SIRIUS family; it shares the same screw-terminal and DIN-rail design but has lower motor ratings. The 3RT5045-1AF00 and 3RT5045-1AC20 are S3 frame contactors from the SIRIUS 3RT5 series with electronic coil interfaces. None is a drop-in without checking the coil voltage and auxiliary configuration.

Where can I buy 3RT1045-1AL20-ZW97?
