Siemens 3TK2828-1AL20 | SIRIUS Safety Relay

Overview

3TK2828-1AL20 is a safety relay from Siemens' SIRIUS 3TK28 series, designed for monitoring protective doors and safety-related circuits in industrial environments. It provides reliable safety function with both instantaneous and time-delayed relay enabling circuits.

The device features 2 NO instantaneous enabling contacts and 2 NO time-delayed enabling contacts (0.5...30 s), plus 1 NC signaling contact. It is designed for 230 V AC control supply voltage, uses screw-type terminals, and supports automatic start configuration.

The 3TK2828-1AL20 achieves SIL 3 (IEC 61508/EN 62061), Performance Level e (PL e) (ISO 13849-1) for instantaneous enabling circuits, and Category 4 (EN ISO 13849-1), making it suitable for high-demand safety applications. Its cross-circuit proof design and positively-driven contacts ensure fail-safe operation.

Lifecycle

Phased-out no longer in active production — limited availability

Product status: The 3TK2828-1AL20 has been phased-out by Siemens and is no longer in active production. It may still be available through surplus stock or authorized distributors as a legacy spare part for existing systems.

Spare parts & support: Replacement units and accessories are available through Siemens' standard support channels and authorized distributors, but availability may be limited. For new installations, the successor solution is strongly recommended.

Replacement & migration:

Recommended successor: Siemens has officially designated 3SK1121-1CB42 + 3SK1230-1AW20 as the preferred successor solution for the 3TK2828-1AL20.
  • The 3SK2 series offers enhanced functionality including higher switching frequencies and improved diagnostics.
  • When replacing the 3TK2828-1AL20 with the 3SK2 successor, verify the control supply voltage and application requirements to ensure compatibility.
  • The 3SK2 series is designed for long-term availability and continued support.

Recommendation: For new installations, we strongly recommend the successor solution 3SK1121-1CB42 + 3SK1230-1AW20. For existing systems, procuring spare units while available is advisable.
