Product details

SIRIUS S6 Contactor with 220-240 V AC/DC Coil

It carries a 220-240 V AC/DC coil with screw-type terminals, and the main circuit accepts stranded conductors from 25 to 120 mm². The coil operates on AC or DC supply at 220-240 V rated value, with a pickup voltage range of 0.8 to 1.1 times the rated value at 50/60 Hz. It uses screw fixing through a single 9 mm hole.

Auxiliary Contact Ratings and Wiring

The auxiliary contacts are rated for switching at various DC voltages: 10 A at 24 V, 2 A at 48 V and 60 V, 1 A at 110 V, 0.9 A at 125 V, and 0.3 A at 220 V. At 230 V AC, the rating is 6 A. Up to four auxiliary contact blocks can be attached, giving flexibility for feedback, interlocking, or status signaling in the control circuit.

Physical dimensions are 172 mm height, 120 mm width, and 170 mm depth. The S6 frame size is a standard Siemens contactor footprint; verify backpanel layout against these dimensions before committing the BOM line.

Frequently asked questions

What are the main circuit conductor ranges for this contactor?

The main circuit accepts stranded conductors from 25 to 120 mm². Auxiliary circuit terminals accept solid conductors from 0.5 to 4 mm².

What is the coil voltage and type?

The coil is rated at 220-240 V and accepts both AC and DC supply. Pickup voltage range is 0.8 to 1.1 times rated value at 50/60 Hz.

What mounting positions are allowed?

Mounting on a vertical surface with +/-90° rotation and +/-22.5° tilt forward/backward is permitted. Fastening is via screw fixing through a single 9 mm hole.
