Product details

It provides one CO (changeover) contact rated at 0.3 A at 24 V, 48 V, and 60 V, making it suitable for signaling to PLC inputs or other low-power control circuits.

The 0.3 A rating at 24 V DC is the switching capacity for the auxiliary contact — enough for a typical PLC digital input or a small relay coil, but not for direct motor or heater loads. The electronics-compatible design means the contact is optimized for low-energy signals, reducing the risk of oxide film buildup that can cause intermittent faults in dry circuits. The 17 mm depth and 45 mm width match the standard footprint of SIRIUS S00, S0, S2, and S3 breakers, so it clips onto the front without increasing the panel depth beyond the breaker's own envelope. The 12 mm height keeps it clear of adjacent wiring channels. Screw-type terminals accept 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²) solid or 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²) stranded, with an AWG range of 20 to 14.

RoHS compliance date is noted as May 1, 2012, so it meets current EU substance restrictions.

Frequently asked questions

What is the listed depth of the 3RV2901-1G?

The depth is 17 mm, which allows it to mount flush on the front of the 3RV2 breaker without increasing the overall panel depth.

What conductor sizes does the screw terminal accept?

It accepts 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²) solid or 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²) stranded, with an AWG range of 20 to 14.

Will 3RV2901-1G drop into a panel specified around 3RT1015-1BB42 without rewiring?

No — the 3RT1015-1BB42 is a contactor with a different mounting footprint and terminal layout. The 3RV2901-1G is designed specifically for 3RV2 breakers, not for contactors.

What compliance documentation does this part carry?

The part is RoHS compliant with a substance prohibition date of May 1, 2012. The SIRIUS series typically carries CE, UL, and CSA certifications, though specific approvals are not listed in this evidence set.
