Product details

The Siemens 3UG5461-1AA41 is a SIRIUS DC load monitoring relay that measures current from -8 to +8 A and adjustable voltage from 0 to 60 V, with PROFINET IO connectivity for integration into automated systems. It detects overcurrent, undercurrent, overvoltage, and undervoltage on DC circuits, with a response time up to 100 ms. Galvanic isolation between input and output keeps the control side protected from faults on the monitored line.

Wire terminals accept 1x 0.5–4 mm² or 2x 0.5–2.5 mm² solid or stranded. Strip length? 8 mm avoids whiskers under the cage.

Engineering Notes

Power loss max 3 W. Compliance with IEC 60947-1 and IEC 61000-6-2/6-4 for EMC. PROFINET IO conformity class A — works with standard controllers but doesn't include isochronous real-time (IRT) for motion control.

Frequently asked questions

What does the -8 to +8 A current range mean for my application?

It means the relay can monitor DC currents flowing in either direction (bidirectional), up to 8 A in magnitude. Use it for load monitoring on DC motor drives, battery chargers, or DC power supplies where current can reverse.

Can I use this relay with a 24 V DC system?

Yes, the adjustable voltage range covers 0 to 60 V DC, so 24 V is well within range. The relay also draws 1 A at 24 V for its own supply.

What compliance documentation does the 3UG5461-1AA41 carry?

It complies with IEC 60947-1 and IEC 61000-6-2/6-4 for EMC. Protection class is IP20. For specific RoHS/REACH/UL declarations, check the manufacturer documentation or request it with your RFQ.
