Product details

Siemens SIRIUS 3RT1056-6NP38-0PA5 – Size S6 Power Contactor, 200–277 V Coil

It measures 172 mm high, 120 mm wide, and 170 mm deep, and mounts by screw fixing on a vertical surface with ±90° rotation and ±22.5° tilt allowed.

Switching Capability and Duty Cycles

Maximum switching frequency varies by duty: 800 operations per hour under AC-1 (resistive), 750/h under AC-3 (squirrel-cage motor starting), 300/h under AC-2 (slip-ring motor), and 130/h under AC-4 (plugging/inching).

The main power circuit accepts stranded conductors from 25 to 120 mm²; the auxiliary/control circuit accepts solid or stranded wires in two sizes per terminal: 2x (0.5–1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75–2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75–4 mm²). An auxiliary switch is included, and the contactor has a mechanical service life of 10 million operations typical.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3RT1056-6NP38-0PA5 and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through our independent distribution network. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is 3RT1056-6NP38-0PA5's listed depth?

The depth is 170 mm.

What solid conductor sizes does the auxiliary circuit accept?

The auxiliary circuit accepts 2x (0.5–1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75–2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75–4 mm²) solid or stranded conductors.

Will 3RT1056-6NP38-0PA5 drop into a panel specified around 3RT1055-6QF35 without rewiring?

No — the S6 frame (3RT1056) is physically larger than the S5 frame (3RT1055), so it will not fit the same mounting footprint or terminal layout without modifications.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3RT1056-6NP38-0PA5?

As a standard SIRIUS product, Siemens provides RoHS and REACH declarations, plus IEC/EN 60947-4-1 compliance documentation. Specific UL/CSA certifications should be confirmed from the product label or Siemens support.
