Switching frequency and duty cycle limits
The 3RT2018-1AU62: These limits govern how fast the contactor can cycle without overheating the coil or arc chamber. The arcing time spans 10 to 15 ms at AC, and the opening time is 4 to 15 ms — both matter for coordination with upstream overcurrent devices in a motor branch circuit.
Panel fit and mounting clearances
The 45 x 58 x 73 mm (W x H x D) footprint fits standard S00 contactor spacing.
Current production — active lifecycle
Sourced through authorized distribution channels; availability and pricing confirmed against the BOM quantity at RFQ. The S00 frame is a common spare across many Siemens motor starter assemblies, so it moves as a standard stock item.
