Integrator's read on the 3RT2036-3SF30
MTBF sits at 52 a, which for a contactor in continuous duty is a solid reliability figure — not a consumable part you plan to swap on a PM schedule.
That helps when the gland plate forces an odd orientation. Dimensions: 55 mm wide, 114 mm high, 130 mm deep. Clearances: 10 mm upward/downward/forward, 6 mm at the sides. The S2 frame is a standard footprint; it'll slot into a multi-contactor bank without surprises.
Switching duty and coil draw
Rated for AC-1 (resistive) at 1 000 ops/h, AC-3 (motor starting) at 800 ops/h, and AC-4 (plugging/inching) at 250 ops/h. Coil inrush peaks at 25 A, steady-state draw is 2 VA at 50 Hz or 60 Hz. Auxiliary switch is included — no add-on block needed for basic status feedback.
