The 3RT2023-1AR60: The contactor mounts via screw or snap-on onto 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 60715, occupying 45 mm of panel width. The S0 frame is the mid-size in the SIRIUS contactor family — sized for motor loads up to the AC-3 rating of the main contacts (rated for 16 A at 400 V, with a 1 hp rating at 230 V). Operating temperature range is -25 to +60 °C, with storage from -55 to +80 °C. The mounting position allows ±180° rotation on a vertical surface and ±22.5° tilt forward/backward, giving flexibility in tight enclosures.
Integration & Wiring
Main power terminals accept solid or stranded conductors from 1 to 10 mm². Auxiliary contact terminals accept 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²) or 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²) solid or stranded. The auxiliary switch is included — verify the contact configuration against your control scheme. Minimum clearance distances: 10 mm upwards, 10 mm downwards, 6 mm at the side, 10 mm forwards. These govern panel layout for arc-flash and heat dissipation — the 97 mm depth and 85 mm height fit standard S0 contactor footprints. The coil draws 0.25 A at 50 Hz and 0.28 A at 60 Hz. Arcing time is 10 ms. Switching frequency is 1,000 operations per hour for AC-1, AC-2, AC-3, and AC-3e duty; 300 ops/h for AC-4 (plugging/reversing). Mechanical life is 10 million operations typical.
Auxiliary Contact Ratings
The auxiliary contacts carry rated operational currents across common control 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, 3 A at 400 V, and 0.6 A at 440 V. These are the values for the auxiliary switch block — use them to confirm compatibility with your PLC outputs or relay coils.
