What replaces a 3RU1126-1CB0

 3RU2126-1CB0 + bracket   3RU2126-1CB0 + New 3RT contactor

 Pros:

  • Most inexpensive means to replace
    obsolete overload

Cons:

  • Need sufficient panel space (either
    DIN Rail or screw down) to mount
    overload bracket
  • Must now wire overload to contactor
    since will not direct mount
 

 Pros:

  • Saves space
  • Ease on installation (no need to run
    new wires from overload to contactor)
  • Newest generation of Siemens line and
    will be around for many years to come

Cons:

  • Most expensive replacement option
    since contactor also needs to be replaced
