Product details

The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT1046-1AM20-0UA0 is a Size S3 power contactor rated for motor switching up to 55 kW at 500 V and 25.4 kW at 690 V. Maximum switching frequency varies by duty: 900 cycles/h under AC-1 (resistive), 850 cycles/h under AC-3 (motor starting), and 250 cycles/h under AC-4 (plugging/reversing).

Termination and Wiring

Main circuit terminals accept solid conductors from 0.5 mm² up to 4 mm² (2x per clamp) and stranded conductors from 10 mm² up to 50 mm² (2x per clamp). The auxiliary contact block uses a separate solid-wire range of 0.5 to 4 mm².

Frequently asked questions

What are the key power ratings for 3RT1046-1AM20-0UA0?

It is rated for motor loads at 55 kW at 500 V and 25.4 kW at 690 V. The coil operates at 50/60 Hz with a voltage tolerance of 0.8 to 1.1 times rated at 50 Hz and 0.85 to 1.1 at 60 Hz.

Will 3RT1046-1AM20-0UA0 drop into a panel specified around 3RT1044-1FB46?
