Product details

The relay is sized S2, the mid-frame in the SIRIUS family, and it's rated for a 15 kW motor at 400 V (AC-3e duty), with a rated insulation voltage of 690 V.

The 3RU2136-4ED1 carries a 15 kW rating at 400 V, and also 18.5 kW at 500 V and 30 kW at 690 V — so it covers 400 V and 690 V motor circuits without needing a different frame. The auxiliary contact ratings are given for multiple voltages: 2 A at 24 V, 3 A at 120 V, 2 A at 230 V, 1 A at 400 V — these are the contacts that signal the trip condition back to the PLC or annunciator. The relay dissipates 4.6 W per pole, which matters for enclosure heat rise if you're packing several in a small panel.

This relay is designed for stand-alone installation — it mounts directly to the mounting plate or DIN rail, not piggybacked on a contactor. The main circuit terminals are screw-type, accepting 2x (0.5 to 2.5 mm²) solid or stranded wire, with a Pozidriv PZ 2 screwdriver tip. Temperature compensation is active from -40 to +60 °C, so the trip curve stays accurate across the working range.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 3RU2136-4ED1 used for?

It is a thermal overload relay that protects three-phase motors against overload and phase loss. It sits between the contactor and the motor, and its Class 10 trip characteristic matches standard induction motor starting.

What are the key ratings of the 3RU2136-4ED1?

Rated for 15 kW at 400 V, 18.5 kW at 500 V, and 30 kW at 690 V in AC-3e duty. Rated insulation voltage is 690 V. Auxiliary contacts rated 2 A at 24 V, 3 A at 120 V, 2 A at 230 V, 1 A at 400 V.

Where can I buy the 3RU2136-4ED1?
