Product details

It is rated for 45 kW at AC-2 duty at 400 V, which covers standard slip-ring motor starting, and 80 A at AC-4 at 400 V for inching and plugging duty.

For resistive loads (AC-1), the maximum switching rate is 900 operations per hour, which drops to 250 per hour under AC-4 — plan your cycle count accordingly. The main current circuit uses screw-type terminals, accepting 2x (0.25...2.5 mm²) solid or 2x (10...50 mm²) stranded. The front face carries IP20 protection with a cover or box terminal; the terminal itself is IP00, so it requires enclosure protection against accidental contact.

The contactor is RoHS and REACH compliant, with a substance prohibitance date of May 1, 2012, confirming it meets the EU directive restrictions.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key dimensions of the 3RT1046-3AV60?
