Siemens 3RT2036-1AK60

Replacement Verification Points: Coil voltage, mounting dimensions, plug compatibility with thermal overload relays, auxiliary contact configuration.

9. Application Precautions & Pitfall Avoidance
10. 00 designation means no built-in auxiliary contacts. Do not assume integrated 1NO+1NC contacts.
11. Derate load current if ambient temperature >55℃ or installation altitude >2000m.
12. For inductive loads (motors), coil surge suppression is recommended to avoid PLC electromagnetic interference.
13. Not designed for direct switching of high-voltage DC; operate only within specified AC load categories.
14. CAL5X auxiliary blocks can only be fitted on the left and right sides of contactors; top mounting is prohibited.
