Product details

SIRIUS S3 power contactor – 77 A motor switching at 480 V

The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2045-3AP00 is a size S3 power contactor rated for 77 A at 480 V in AC-3 duty — the motor-switching curve that governs most three-phase induction motor loads up to that current. The spring-type coil terminals and screw-and-snap-on mounting to 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 60715 mean it drops into the same panel footprint as other S3 frame units, with the same 152 mm depth, 70 mm width, and 140 mm height. Operating range covers -25 to +60 °C, so it handles typical cabinet ambients without derating.

The S3 frame accepts main conductor cross-sections from 2.5 to 16 mm² solid or 6 to 70 mm² stranded, and auxiliary contacts are included.
