Siemens SIRIUS 3RT1456-6AS36 — Size S6 Contactor with AC/DC Coil
Panel footprint: 172 mm high by 120 mm wide, 170 mm deep. Mounting is screw-fix with a vertical surface; the contactor can be rotated ±90° or tilted ±22.5° forward/backward, giving flexibility for tight cabinet layouts. Power wiring accepts stranded conductors from 25 to 120 mm² — that's a heavy cable range matching the S6 frame's current-handling capability. Control wiring uses screw terminals accepting 2x (0.5…1.5 mm²) solid, 2x (0.75…2.5 mm²) solid, or max 2x (0.75…4 mm²) stranded. The coil pulls 10 A at 24 V rated value, with switching times of 40…60 ms for both AC and DC operation and an arcing time of 10…15 ms.
Screw-fix mounting with four 9 mm holes. For a panel swap: if you're replacing a similarly-sized SIRIUS contactor, check the mounting hole pattern and depth — 170 mm depth is deeper than some S0/S2 frames, so verify cabinet clearance before pulling the old one.
