The Siemens 3RT2018-1AK61 is a SIRIUS 3RT2 series 3-pole power contactor designed for reliable switching of three-phase motors up to 7.5 kW at 400 V AC. It features mirror contact elements, screw terminal connections, and a 230 V AC coil (50 Hz) / 277 V AC (60 Hz), making it suitable for motor control centers (MCCs), automation systems, HVAC applications, and industrial power distribution systems.
This model belongs to the compact S00 frame size and is rated for AC-3 / AC-3e duty up to 16 A, making it suitable for medium-duty motor switching applications where stable coil performance and higher control voltage compatibility are required.
According to Siemens SIRIUS technical datasheets, the 3RT2018 series supports 16 A AC-3 rating and 7.5 kW motor switching at 400 V AC, with robust screw terminal construction for secure and long-lasting wiring in industrial environments.
The integrated mirror contact elements provide mechanically linked feedback of the main contacts, which is essential for PLC interlocking, safety circuits, and machine monitoring systems, ensuring the controller can verify the actual ON/OFF state of the contactor for safe operation and diagnostics.
With screw terminals, installation remains vibration-resistant, secure, and suitable for continuous industrial use.
