The Siemens 3RT2326-1AV00-4AA0 is a 4-pole contactor from the SIRIUS family, rated for AC-1 resistive loads at 40 A and 400 V at 40 °C. The 400 V AC 50 Hz coil pulls in the main poles, while the integrated auxiliary contact block — 1 NO + 1 NC — handles signaling or interlocking without a separate add-on.
What the AC-1 rating means for the buyer
AC-1 is the resistive load category per IEC 60947-4-1, covering heaters, ovens, and resistive banks where inrush is minimal. For motor loads (AC-3), the contactor would derate — the AC-1 figure is the ceiling for resistive switching, not the motor rating.
Integration notes
The auxiliary contacts — 1 NO + 1 NC — are wired at the front of the contactor, accessible with the main power cables landed.
Regulatory compliance
