SIEMENS SIRIUS 3RA23 Reversing Contactor
The SIEMENS 3RA23168XB301AK6 is a three-pole IEC magnetic contactor with integrated reversing capability. It operates on a 110/120V AC coil and carries 9 A inductive or 22 A resistive full-load current. Two normally closed auxiliary contacts are fitted as standard. The unit mounts on DIN rail or directly on a surface.
Installers needing forward/reverse motor control
This contactor suits control panels that require a compact reversing starter in a single S00 frame. The screw terminals accept standard ferrules or solid wire for quick wiring. Panels that demand normally open auxiliary contacts or a higher current rating will need a different device. Applications requiring a built-in overload relay must add that component separately.
110/120V AC coil voltage
The coil is rated for 110/120V AC control circuits only; it will not operate on DC or other AC voltages. Verify the control-circuit supply matches this range before ordering. The 3.2 in height and 3.5 in width define the DIN-rail footprint for enclosure layout.
Highlights
- Reversing operation for motor direction control
- 110/120V AC coil voltage for standard supply

Questions about this item
How do I mount the S00 frame and wire the screw terminals?
Snap the S00 frame onto a DIN rail or surface-mount it, then tighten each screw terminal securely; the reversing function uses two contactors mechanically interlocked so both must be aligned before tightening.
What will need replacement after extended operation?
The main power contacts are rated for 9 A inductive and 22 A resistive loads; the 2NC auxiliary contacts switch the control circuit and will wear after high-cycle use, so plan to replace the complete contactor assembly when contact erosion appears.
At what coil voltage does the contactor stop pulling in reliably?
The coil is rated for 110/120 V AC; sustained voltage below the lower end of this range will cause dropout or chatter, which is the first limit you hit under continuous operation.
