The contactor carries an integrated auxiliary switch (1 NO + 1 NC, typical for the S00 frame), with screw-type terminals on the coil and main circuits. The coil terminal type is screw-type, and the main and auxiliary terminals accept solid or stranded conductors from 0.5 to 4 mm² (single or doubled up to 2× 2.5 mm²). Mechanical service life is rated at 30,000,000 operations typical, and the operating temperature range is -25 to +60 °C, with storage from -55 to +80 °C.
The 3RT2015-1AP62 is rated for maximum switching frequencies depending on duty: 1,000 cycles/hour at AC-1 (resistive loads), 750 cycles/hour at AC-3 (standard motor starting), and 250 cycles/hour at AC-4 (plugging/inching). For AC-3e (enhanced motor starting) the limit is also 750 cycles/hour. These are the thermal limits of the contactor — exceeding them shortens life or causes welding. The auxiliary contact ratings are given for several 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, 0.3 A at 220 V, and 3 A at 400 V. These are the maximum continuous currents the auxiliary contacts can switch at those voltages — useful for sizing control circuits.
