Its headline AC-3 rating of 65 A at 480 V means it can handle a 3-phase induction motor drawing that current under starting and running conditions — the duty cycle that governs most conveyor, pump, and fan loads. At 230 V it's rated for 15 hp, which aligns with common North American motor frames in the 10–15 hp range. The coil pulls 24 V at 50 Hz, and the main contacts are configured as 3-pole normally open. There's no built-in auxiliary switch block — you'll add a separate SIRIUS auxiliary contactor or side-mount block if you need status feedback or interlocking.

Switching duty and thermal limits
This contactor is rated for different switching frequencies depending on the duty category: 700 operations per hour at AC-1 (resistive loads), 500/h at AC-3 (motor starting/running), and 150/h at AC-4 (plugging/reversing/inching). The AC-4 limit is the one that bites if you're doing frequent reversing — 150 ops/h means about one every 24 seconds, which is fine for most jogging but not for high-cycle indexing.
No successor order code is indicated — this is the current production variant.
