SIRIUS 3RT2026-1FB40 — Size S0 Power Contactor, 24 V DC Coil
The coil is rated 24 V DC, pulling in at 0.8 x rated voltage (19.2 V) and holding reliably across the operating range of -25 to +60 °C. The contactor mounts on a 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 60715, with screw and snap-on fastening, and can be rotated ±180° on a vertical surface or tilted ±22.5° forward/backward for tight panel layouts.
Switching Frequency & Duty Cycles
Maximum switching frequency depends on the duty class: 1,000 operations per hour at AC-1 (resistive), 750/h at AC-2 and AC-3 (motor starting/running), and 250/h at AC-4 (plugging/inching). The AC-3e rating also caps at 750/h. For a conveyor or pump running continuous start/stop cycles, the AC-3 figure is the practical limit; the AC-4 derating matters if the contactor sees reversing or jogging duty.
These spacings ensure adequate ventilation and arc-quenching volume — skimping on the side clearance risks flashover between adjacent contactors in a dense panel.
Termination & Wiring
Auxiliary contacts (the contactor includes an auxiliary switch) accept 2 x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²) or 2 x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²) solid or stranded. The coil connection uses screw-type terminals.
