The 3RT1944-5AV61 is a replacement AC operating coil from Siemens' SIRIUS 3RT1 series, engineered to restore or modify the control voltage operation of Size S3 power contactors. Designed for direct insertion into 3-pole 3RT104 contactor frames, this precision-wound component operates within control circuits rated for 480. Electrically, the 3RT1944-5AV61 is calibrated for a control power supply, delivering consistent magnetic pull-in and secure holding force for continuous-duty switching. Constructed with high-grade magnet wire and thermal insulation, it ensures low power consumption, minimal heat dissipation, and chatter-free contact closure under demanding, high-duty-cycle industrial operations. Mechanically, the 3RT1944-5AV61 features a drop-in replacement design that allows straightforward access to the contactor's magnetic core assembly during routine maintenance or coil voltage retrofits. Equipped with touch-safe IP20 screw terminals, it installs securely into the Size S3 contactor housing without requiring full disassembly or disturbing main power circuit wiring.
