Product details

The coil is AC-operated; closing power draw is 0.62 W, holding at 0.27 W. For fault coordination, the upstream fuse requirement is a gL/gG 200 A NH 3NA type.

Environmental and terminal specs

Rated IP20 on the front (finger-safe), IP00 at the terminals — so the wiring area is not touch-protected; plan for enclosure-level guarding. Operating temperature range is -10 to +55 °C, storage from -25 to +70 °C. Pollution degree 3 (conductive pollution, typical for industrial control panels). Main and auxiliary/control circuits use screw-type terminals, accepting 2x (0.5…1.5 mm²) solid or stranded, or 2x (0.75…2.5 mm²) finely stranded with ferrules.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key dimensions?

Width 70 mm, height 148 mm, depth 139 mm. It is a size S3 contactor.

What is the AC-3 rated voltage and how does it affect motor switching?

The AC-3 rated voltage maximum is 690 V. That means it can switch three-phase induction motors on and off under full load up to that voltage, at up to 800 cycles per hour. The operating current at AC-3 varies with voltage — at 400 V it is rated 3 A for the auxiliary contacts, but the main contact rating is defined by the motor current; the 690 V ceiling is the insulation and switching limit.

Does the 3RT7045-1AH20 drop into a panel designed for the 3RT7045-1AG20?

Yes — both are size S3 contactors with the same footprint (70 mm width, same mounting rail and screw-type terminals). The difference is the coil voltage: the -1AH20 is AC-operated, while the -1AG20 uses a different coil variant. If the panel wiring and control supply match AC coil voltage, it is a direct mechanical swap.
