Product details

The S0 frame keeps the width to 45 mm (cites:), so it fits in a standard 45 mm slot on a DIN rail — no special adapter needed.

The 34 A at 480 V AC-3 rating (cites:) is the headline number for motor switching. AC-3 means it makes and breaks motor loads during starting and stopping — the contacts are designed to handle the high inrush current (typically 6–8x FLA) without excessive wear. For resistive loads (AC-1), the contactor can switch up to 1 000 operations per hour (cites:), while AC-3 duty is rated at 750 operations per hour (cites:). That operating frequency tells you it's suited for moderate-duty cycling — not a high-speed pick-and-place application, but fine for conveyors, pumps, and fans. Auxiliary contacts are included (cites:), which simplifies wiring for status feedback or interlocking without adding a separate auxiliary block. That covers most indoor panel environments; if the panel is near a furnace or in direct sunlight, the 60 °C ceiling is the limit to watch.

Frequently asked questions

What is the depth of this contactor?

The depth is 97 mm (cites:). That's the dimension from the DIN rail mounting surface to the front of the contactor body.

What wire sizes does the main contact accept?

The main contacts accept solid or stranded wire from 1 to 10 mm² (cites:,).

Will the 3RT2028-1AS00 drop into a panel specified for the 3RT2028-1AU00?

Both are SIRIUS S0 frame contactors with the same 45 mm width and 97 mm depth (cites:,), so the mechanical footprint is identical. The difference is in the coil voltage — the 1AS00 uses a different coil variant than the 1AU00. If the coil voltage matches your control circuit, it will drop in without rewiring the main power connections.
