Product details

Rated power at 400 V is 0.55 kW, which aligns the breaker with a standard small-frame motor for light-duty industrial drives.

Snap-on mounting onto 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 50022, with screw-type terminals for both main and auxiliary circuits — the main terminals accept 2x (0.5…1.5 mm²) solid or 2x (1…2.5 mm²) stranded, and the auxiliary terminals share the same range.

For a BOM freeze or critical-spare holding, this part is a safe choice: no imminent obsolescence, and the SIRIUS family has long lifecycle support typical of Siemens industrial controls.

Auxiliary contact ratings: 1 A at 24 V, 0.5 A at 230 V, 0.15 A at 60 V — these are the switching limits for the signal contacts, not the main power path. If you need to switch a 24 VDC PLC input, 1 A is ample; for a 230 VAC contactor coil, 0.5 A covers most small contactors. Operating frequency at AC-3 duty is 15 operations per hour maximum — this is a motor-protection device, not a cycled load switch; it is designed to trip on fault, not to serve as a daily start-stop contactor. Rated insulation voltage is 690 V, and the device is rated for AC-3 duty up to 690 V — suitable for 400 V and 480 V systems with headroom.

Shock resistance rated at 25 g for 11 ms — survives shipping and typical industrial vibration. Substance prohibitance date of 05/01/2012 aligns with RoHS compliance — the part is RoHS-compliant and REACH-registered as standard for Siemens industrial controls.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional alternative to 3RV1021-1AA15?

The 3RV2021-0HA15 is a functional peer in the same SIRIUS family, but it uses spring-cage terminals instead of screw terminals. The 3RV1011-1AA15 and 3RV1011-0HA10 are also close siblings with the same 1.6 A rating and CLASS 10 trip, differing in terminal type and auxiliary contact configuration. For a drop-in replacement without rewiring, verify terminal style and auxiliary contact count against your panel design.

What is the depth of 3RV1021-1AA15?

The depth is 96 mm, with a width of 45 mm and height of 97 mm. It fits a standard 45 mm DIN-rail slot with zero clearance required at sides or rear.

What wire sizes does the 3RV1021-1AA15 accept?

Solid wire: 2x (0.5…1.5 mm²) and 2x (0.75…2.5 mm²). Stranded wire: 2x (1…2.5 mm²) and 2x (2.5…6 mm²). AWG equivalents for main contacts are 2x (14…10). All terminals are screw-type.
