The coil uses spring-type terminals; the main and auxiliary contacts accept 0.5 to 4 mm² solid or stranded wire, doubled up at 2x (0.5 to 4 mm²). Mounts via screw or snap-on to 35 mm DIN rail per EN 60715, and the mounting position allows ±180° rotation on a vertical surface plus ±22.5° tilt forward/backward — handy when you're shoehorning it into a crowded enclosure. ## Clearance and mounting That storage floor matters if the spare sits in an unheated warehouse through winter.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RT2016-2UB42 SIRIUS S00 Power Contactor, 24 VDC Coi","metaDescription":"Siemens 3RT2016-2UB42 SIRIUS power contactor, size S00, 24 VDC coil rated 10 A.
