Product details

Mounts directly onto a contactor via the fastening method listed as contactor mounting — no DIN rail required, which saves rail space in a crowded panel. Dimensions are 120 mm high, 70 mm wide, and 140 mm deep. That zero-clearance spec on five of six sides means you can pack relays tight without derating for airflow — the heat dissipation (4 W per pole) is handled through the contactor base.

Main circuit terminals are screw-type, accepting 2× (10…50 mm²) stranded or 10…70 mm² single conductor, or 2× (10…1/0) AWG. Auxiliary and control circuit terminals are Cage Clamp (spring-cage), accepting 2× (0.5…2.5 mm²) solid or 2× (20…14) AWG. The mixed terminal types mean the power wiring gets a high-torque screw connection while the control wiring gets a vibration-resistant spring clamp — no tool change needed for the aux side.

For Type 1 coordination (no damage to the relay under fault, but the contactor may need replacement), a gG fuse of 160 A is required upstream. For Type 2 coordination (relay and contactor survive the fault), a gG fuse of 63 A is required.

Relative humidity during operation can reach 100% (condensation allowed, but the IP20 front means the relay must be inside a sealed enclosure for wet environments). Shock resistance is 8 g for 10 ms — sufficient for most industrial machinery but not for high-G mobile equipment.

The built-in auxiliary contacts are rated for switching: 1 A at 24 V, 0.22 A at 110 V, 3 A at 120 V, 0.22 A at 125 V, 0.11 A at 220 V, 2 A at 230 V, and 1 A at 400 V.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3RU1146-4DD0?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. Pricing and availability are confirmed at quote time through our independent distribution network.

Will 3RU1146-4DD0 drop into a panel that was specified around 3RU2116-1FC1 without rewiring?

No. The 3RU1146-4DD0 is a SIRIUS S3 frame relay with screw-type main terminals and Cage Clamp aux terminals, while the 3RU2116-1FC1 is a different frame size with different terminal layouts. Panel rewiring and mechanical adaptation would be required.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3RU1146-4DD0?

The relay carries ATEX approval DMT 98 ATEX G 001, RoHS compliance from 07/01/2006, and is designed to meet IEC/EN 60947-4-1 standards for motor protection. Specific declarations of conformity are available from Siemens upon request.
