The varistor design handles repetitive surge energy without the wear-out mechanism of an RC snubber — it is sized for the coil energy of SIRIUS S00 contactors (3RT2.1 series) and auxiliary contactors (3RH2 series), so it suppresses the inductive kickback that would otherwise arc across the PLC output or relay contact driving the coil. ## Clip-on mount — panel fit for S00 contactors The clip-on fastening method means it snaps directly onto the front of the contactor without tools — no DIN-rail space consumed, no additional wiring. The 9 mm depth, 28 mm width, and 46 mm height match the S00 contactor footprint, so the suppressor sits flush within the contactor envelope.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RT2916-1BE00 SIRIUS Surge Suppressor, Varistor","metaDescription":"Siemens 3RT2916-1BE00 SIRIUS varistor surge suppressor, 240-400 V AC 50/60 Hz, for 3RT2.1 contactors and 3RH2 aux contactors.
