At 45 mm wide, it fits a 45 mm slot in a DIN-rail grid, leaving room alongside overload relays or busbars. That covers standard panel wire sizes up to about 8 AWG, which is typical for a contactor this size.
That means it works in panels where the DIN rail is mounted sideways or at an angle — common in tight enclosures or swing-frame assemblies. That's enough to avoid arc flash between adjacent devices during switching, but you still want to check heat dissipation if you're packing multiple contactors side by side in a sealed box.
Switching performance and ratings
Rated for 1 000 operating cycles per hour under AC-1, AC-2, AC-3, and AC-3e duty, dropping to 300 cycles per hour under AC-4. AC-3 is the standard motor-switching category — so this contactor handles frequent starts and stops on a motor load at that rate. AC-4 (plugging/inching) cuts the rate to 300/h, which is typical for reversing or jogging applications where the contacts take more arc wear. Arcing time sits at 10 ms, and the make/break times at AC range from 4 to 16 ms. That's fast enough for most PLC-controlled sequences without adding noticeable delay to the logic scan.
The S0 frame and 45 mm width are common across the SIRIUS family, so if you're panel-building, you can treat this as a drop-in for any S0 slot. No rewiring surprises vs other S0 contactors from the same series — same footprint, same terminal spacing.
