Product details

Mounting and clearances — fits the standard rail, but watch the breathing room

The S0 frame is 45 mm wide, 85 mm high, 107 mm deep. Mounting position: ±180° rotation on vertical surface, ±22.5° tilt forward/backward.

Switching capacity — where it earns its keep

This contactor's switching capacity is given per rated voltage, not a single blanket amp rating. At 24 V it switches 10 A; at 48 V and 60 V it handles 2 A; at 110 V it's rated 1 A; at 125 V it drops to 0.9 A; at 220 V it's 0.3 A; and at 400 V it manages 3 A. For motor loads at 230 V, it's rated 1 hp. The mechanical life is 10 million operations typical, with maximum switching rates of 1 000 cycles per hour for AC-1, AC-2, AC-3, and AC-3e duty, dropping to 300 cycles per hour for AC-4. The arcing time sits at 10 to 10 ms, and the DC operating time is 15 to 18 ms. These numbers tell you it's a general-purpose machine-tool contactor, not a high-speed chopper — fine for conveyor starters, pump runs, and crusher auxiliaries that don't cycle faster than every few seconds.

Environmental range — built for the cabinet, not the pit floor

That's standard for a panel-mount contactor — it shrugs off the heat inside a closed cabinet but isn't sealed for washdown or dust-ignition environments. The pick-up voltage is 0.8 of rated value; the drop-out voltage is 1.1 of rated value. So at 42 V nominal, it picks up around 33.6 V and drops out around 46.2 V — that's a tight hysteresis band, meaning it won't chatter on a sagging line, but it also won't hold in on a weak control transformer.

Frequently asked questions

What replaces the 3RT2023-1BD40 if I need a different coil voltage?

The evidence does not list an official successor or alternate coil-voltage variant for this exact order code. For a different coil voltage, you would need to select a different 3RT2 variant in the S0 frame with the desired coil rating. The 3RT2024-2BB40 is a peer in the same SIRIUS family but carries different ratings — verify fit against your BOM before substituting.

What are the key dimensions of the 3RT2023-1BD40?

Width is 45 mm, height is 85 mm, depth is 107 mm. It mounts on 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 60715 or with screws.

What conductor sizes does the 3RT2023-1BD40 accept?

Solid or stranded wire from 1 to 10 mm². For fine-stranded wire with ferrules, it accepts 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²) or 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²).

What compliance documentation is available for the 3RT2023-1BD40?

The evidence does not list specific certifications (UL, CSA, CE, RoHS, REACH) for this order code. Standard SIRIUS contactors typically carry CE marking for the European market and may have UL/CSA listings depending on the variant. Request the manufacturer's declaration of conformity or the specific approval certificate from the supplier against an RFQ.
