The Siemens 3RT2026-1AF00 is a SIRIUS 3RT2 power contactor in size S0 that switches three-phase motors up to 11 kW at 400 V (25 A in utilisation category AC-3), with a 110 V AC, 50 Hz operating coil. It has 1 NO + 1 NC integrated auxiliary contacts, and Siemens rates it at 40 A for resistive (AC-1) loads at 40 °C. Siemens quotes a typical mechanical life of 10,000,000 operating cycles for this contactor.
Contactors in pump, fan, conveyor and compressor panels may switch thousands of times a day, and contact wear is the usual reason for replacement. Keeping a spare of the same order number avoids long stoppages.
See our Siemens industrial controls range, including SIRIUS 3RU2 overload relays and 3RV2 motor starter protectors for the same size.

Typical applications
- Replacement of a worn 3RT2 contactor with the same rating
- Switching heaters and resistive loads (AC-1)
- Direct-on-line starters for motors up to 11 kW at 400 V
- Star-delta starter assemblies
Compatibility and replacement
For overload protection mount a SIRIUS 3RU2 thermal overload relay of size S0 directly under the contactor, or combine it with a 3RV2 motor starter protector of the same size using the Siemens link module. Older 3RT10 contactors were replaced by the 3RT20 series; send us the old order number and we will confirm the current equivalent.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use it for a 7.5 kW motor?
This contactor is rated 11 kW at 400 V (AC-3, 25 A). Choose a contactor whose AC-3 rating at your supply voltage is at least the motor rating.
Which overload relay fits it?
A SIRIUS 3RU2 overload relay of size S0, for example 3RU2126, set to the motor full-load current.
