Siemens 3RT2 Series Contactor, 230 V ac Coil, 3-Pole, 16 A, 7.5 kW, 3NO, 400 V ac

This contactor from Siemens' SIRIUS Innovation range is on hand to control high power loads in industrial environments. It consumes less power than the circuit it controls for optimal energy efficiency. A thermoplastic housing offers durability and superior impact resistance, which means it won't break under pressure. This electromechanical device has integrated fuses that offer short circuit protection. It also has a rated surge voltage of 6kV, so it can withstand sudden spikes before they damage the motor. With a power rating of 7.5kW, this unit is suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications such as heating circuits and motors.

• Compact dimensions of 57.5 (length) x 45 (width) x 73mm (depth) for space efficiency in small enclosures
• Mechanical service life of 30 million operations for reliable long-term performance
• Operating temperature range of -25°C to +60°C for safe use in demanding environments
• IP20 (ingress protection) rating indicates resistance to dust and objects larger than 12mm in size

It's important to tightly seal this contactor to prevent interference from the environment. Use a transparent cover so you can visually troubleshoot when a fault occurs.
