It carries a 65 A rated operational current at 480 V in AC-3 duty — that's the motor-switching category per IEC 60947-4-1, so it handles the inrush and breaking of squirrel-cage motors up to that current without welding or excessive contact wear. The coil termination uses screw-type terminals, and the main and auxiliary contacts are accessible for wiring with 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²) or 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²) solid or stranded conductors.
The S2 footprint is 55 mm wide, 114 mm tall, and 130 mm deep, so it occupies a three-module-wide slot on the rail.
Switching performance and operating conditions
The contactor is rated for up to 700 operating cycles per hour in AC-3 and AC-3e duty, 800 cycles per hour in AC-1 (resistive loads), and 200 cycles per hour in AC-4 (plugging and inching). Arc time runs 10 to 20 ms, with a make time of 10 to 18 ms at AC — fast enough for most motor starters and transfer switching. Auxiliary contacts are built in, with a normally open and normally closed configuration (1 NO + 1 NC) for feedback or interlocking. Switching capacity on the auxiliaries: 10 A at 24 V, 2 A at 48 V, 2 A at 60 V, 1 A at 110 V, 0.9 A at 125 V, 0.3 A at 220 V, and 3 A at 400 V — adequate for PLC inputs, pilot lights, and contactor coils in the same panel.
