The 3RT1265-6NF36: Rated operational current at AC-3 (motor duty) is the headline figure for this frame — the S10 size typically handles up to several hundred amps in AC-3 service, though the exact value isn't listed here. What is listed: maximum switching rate at AC-3 is 750 operations per hour, so it's built for fast cycling on conveyor or pump start-stop duty. The vacuum interrupter keeps arcing time to 10 to 15 ms, which reduces contact degradation and extends service intervals compared to an air-break contactor at the same switching frequency. Coil pickup and dropout timing is symmetrical: 80 to 100 ms at both AC and DC. That matters when coordinating with a safety relay or PLC output — the contactor won't pull in faster on DC than AC, so a single timing window covers both supply types. The coil holds at 96 V and drops out at 0.8 × rated value (about 77 V), giving a reasonable margin against brownout conditions. Power circuit termination: stranded cable from 70 to 240 mm². That's a heavy lug range — suitable for main feeder or large motor circuits, not control wiring. The auxiliary switch is included, so you get at least one N.O./N.C. set for status feedback or interlocking.
Mounting is screw fixing, not DIN rail — the S10 frame is bolted to a backplate or mounting channel. Dimensions: 210 mm high, 145 mm wide, 206 mm deep.
Lifecycle stage is current — no end-of-life notice or last-time-buy trigger on this order code. No official successor has been published, which is consistent with an active catalog number.
