AC-3 at 400 V is the number that matters for a 4-pole motor in a pitch drive or cooling fan; the AC-4 rating at the same voltage covers plugging and inching, so this contactor handles reversing or jogging without derating. Screw-type terminals on both the main and auxiliary circuits, with a wire range accepting 0.5 to 4 mm² stranded and up to 2.5 mm² solid. ## Sourcing and lifecycle — still an active line item The contactor carries the SIRIUS brand, Siemens' industrial controls family, and is designed for global panel approvals (UL, CSA, CE, IEC). ## Clearances and thermal reality Side-by-side mounting is allowed — no mandatory gap between contactors on the DIN rail. These keep the arc chamber and coil from overheating in a dense panel. The coil power draw at AC is 0.24 A at both 50 and 60 Hz, and the power dissipation in hot operating state is 4.4 W — a manageable heat load for a 45 mm wide contactor.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RT2316-1AP60 SIRIUS Contactor, 9 A, 4 kW AC-3, 45 m","metaDescription":"Siemens 3RT2316-1AP60 SIRIUS contactor, size S00, 9 A rated at 400 V, 4 kW AC-3, screw terminals, DIN rail mount, -25 to +60 °C operating range.
