Mounts via screw or snap-on onto 35 mm and 75 mm DIN rail, with mounting position flexibility: ±180° rotation on a vertical surface, and ±22.5° tilt forward/backward. Side-by-side mounting is permitted, which simplifies dense panel layouts. The S3 frame occupies 70 mm width and 146 mm height, with a depth of 139 mm. Main circuit connections accept screw-type terminals for 2x (2.5 to 16 mm²) solid or stranded wire, or 2x (10 to 1/0 AWG).
Switching performance and ratings
Rated for 5000 operating cycles per hour at AC, with maximum rates of 1000 cycles/h for AC-1, AC-3, and AC-3e duty, and 300 cycles/h for AC-4. The AC-3e rating at 1000 V is the headline motor-switching capability — this contactor handles motor starts and stops within that voltage and duty cycle without derating. Coil draw at 24 V is 6 A; at 110 V it drops to 1 A, and at 220/230 V to 0.3 A. The coil is rated for both 50 Hz and 60 Hz operation at 220 V with a power factor of 0.27. Power-switching capability at 60 °C ambient: 34 kW at 230 V, 59 kW at 400 V, and 102 kW at 690 V.
