The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2037-1AL20-ZW96 is a Size S2 power contactor rated for 65 A at 480 V in AC-3 duty — the motor-switching rating that governs real-world sizing for induction motors up to that frame current. It carries screw-type terminals for the magnet coil and includes an auxiliary switch block, saving a separate order for basic feedback or interlock wiring.

Frequently asked questions
What is 3RT2037-1AL20-ZW96's listed depth on this component line?
The listed depth is 130 mm.
What is 3RT2037-1AL20-ZW96's listed width on this component line?
The listed width is 55 mm.
Will 3RT2037-1AL20-ZW96 drop into a panel that was specified around 3RT2015-1AV02 without rewiring?
The 3RT2037-1AL20-ZW96 is a Size S2 contactor; the 3RT2015-1AV02 is a smaller frame. Panel cutouts and DIN-rail spacing sized for the smaller unit may not accommodate the 55 mm width and 130 mm depth of the S2 — verify physical fit before assuming a drop-in swap.
What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3RT2037-1AL20-ZW96?
As a Siemens SIRIUS product, standard documentation includes the declaration of conformity and the product manual, which cover applicable EU directives. Specific certificates (UL, CSA, CCC) are listed in the manufacturer's technical data sheet for this order code.
