Product details

Coil and auxiliary contact ratings

The 3RT2018-2LB42-0LA0: The 24 VDC coil is rated for 10 A at 24 V on the auxiliary contacts — that's the contact rating for a DC-13 load at that voltage. For a packaging machine OEM, this means the auxiliary contacts can switch a 24 VDC PLC input or solenoid valve directly without an interposing relay, as long as the inrush stays under 10 A.

The lifecycle status is current — no phase-out or NRND flag. This is a qualified part for serial production; no requalification needed if it's already on your BOM.

Frequently asked questions
