The Siemens 3RT2037-3AC20 is a SIRIUS S2-frame power contactor rated for 65 A at 480 V in AC-3 duty — the motor-switching curve that governs most induction-motor loads up to that current.
The S2 frame footprint is 55 mm wide, 114 mm tall, and 130 mm deep.
Switching performance and operating rates
Maximum operating frequency varies by duty: 800 cycles/hour for AC-1 resistive loads, 700 cycles/hour for AC-3 motor starting, and 200 cycles/hour for AC-4 plugging/reversing. Arcing time spans 10 to 20 ms; the main contactor is rated for 10 million mechanical operations typical.
Environmental limits and auxiliary contacts
Coil draws 0.36 A at 50 Hz and 0.39 A at 60 Hz at 24 V rated value.
