Spring-type terminals on the magnet coil accept 2x (0.5... 4 mm²) solid or stranded wire — no screw torque to verify, which speeds panel wiring and reduces loose-connection callbacks. The contactor is rated for AC-1 switching at up to 1 000 operations per hour and DC switching at 10 000 operations per hour, so it handles both resistive and moderate inductive loads without derating the cycle rate. Auxiliary switch is included, saving a separate add-on block for status feedback to the PLC or safety relay.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RT2517-2AF00 SIRIUS Contactor, Size S00, 45 mm","metaDescription":"Siemens SIRIUS contactor 3RT2517-2AF00, size S00, 45 mm width, 73 mm depth.

The key difference is terminal type: the 3RT2517-2AF00 uses spring-type terminals, while the 3RT2017-2AP01-ZW96 uses screw terminals. If your panel is wired for spring-cage terminations, the 3RT2517-2AF00 is a direct drop-in without rewiring; if the existing panel uses screw terminals, you would need to adapt the wiring method."},{"question":"What is 3RT2517-2AF00's listed depth (73 mm) on this component line?","answer":"The depth is 73 mm. That is the dimension from the mounting surface to the furthest projection — relevant for enclosure depth clearance when mounted on a 35 mm DIN rail."},{"question":"What is 3RT2517-2AF00's listed solid (2x (0.5... 4 mm²)) on this component line?","answer":"The spring terminals accept 2 conductors of solid or stranded wire, each 0.5 to 4 mm². That covers common control wiring sizes up to 12 AWG."},{"question":"Will 3RT2517-2AF00 drop into a panel that was specified around 3RT2017-2AP01-ZW96 without rewiring?","answer":"Yes, if the panel was wired for spring-type terminals. Both are size S00 with the same 45 mm width and 73 mm depth, same DIN rail footprint. The only difference is the terminal type — spring vs screw. If the existing wiring uses ferruled stranded wire, it will fit the spring terminals directly. If the existing wiring is bare stranded without ferrules, you may need to add ferrules for reliable spring-cage connection."},{"question":"What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3RT2517-2AF00 (RoHS, REACH, UL, IEC)?","answer":"As a Siemens SIRIUS catalog item, the contactor carries CE marking per the Low Voltage Directive and is designed to meet IEC/EN 60947-4-1. UL and CSA listings are typical for this product line, but the specific approvals for this order code should be confirmed on the nameplate or via the manufacturer's declaration of conformity. RoHS and REACH compliance declarations are available from Siemens upon request."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/siemens/3RT2517-2AF00","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/siemens/3RT2517-2AF00 when reusing this data.
