It mounts directly onto a contactor, saving DIN-rail space in the panel. The relay uses a thermal bimetallic release mechanism and provides an integrated auxiliary switch for signaling a tripped condition. Rated for a maximum operating voltage of 690 V, the relay supports AC-3e motor switching up to that voltage. Motor power ratings are 4 kW at 400 V, 5.5 kW at 500 V, and 7.5 kW at 690 V, with corresponding current ratings of 10 A at 480 V and 600 V. The auxiliary contact switching capacity covers a wide control-voltage range: 2 A at 24 V and 230 V, 3 A at 120 V, 1 A at 400 V, and 0.75 A at 690 V, among other ratings. This allows direct interfacing with PLC inputs or contactor coils across common control voltages. The relay fastens directly onto a contactor (contactor mounting), eliminating the need for separate DIN-rail clips. It occupies a 45 mm width, 87 mm height, and 70 mm depth — a compact S00 footprint that fits tightly packed motor starter assemblies. Wiring uses spring-loaded terminals on the main current circuit, accepting 2x (0.5 to 2.5 mm²) solid or stranded conductors. A 3 mm screwdriver shaft is specified for the terminal screws. The 3RU2116-1JC0 is listed as current production (active lifecycle stage). It remains a standard catalog item in the SIRIUS family, not subject to phase-out as of the latest manufacturer records. The relay carries a substance prohibition date of 10/01/2009, indicating RoHS compliance.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RU2116-1JC0 SIRIUS Thermal Overload Relay, Class 10","metaDescription":"Siemens 3RU2116-1JC0 SIRIUS thermal overload relay, Size S00, Trip Class 10, 690 V rated, spring-loaded terminals.

Both are SIRIUS Size S00 thermal overload relays with Trip Class 10, 690 V rated, and spring-loaded terminals. The difference is in the current setting range: the -1JC0 covers a higher band than the -1FC1. Verify your motor FLA against each relay's adjustment range before substituting."},{"question":"What is the listed note 'for message Tripped' on this component?","answer":"The note indicates that the integrated auxiliary switch changes state to signal a tripped condition. This is the standard 'trip alarm' contact used to notify a PLC or annunciator that the relay has operated."},{"question":"Will 3RU2116-1JC0 drop into a panel specified for 3RU2116-1FC1 without rewiring?","answer":"Yes, the mechanical footprint and terminal layout are identical — both are Size S00 with spring-loaded terminals and contactor mounting. The wiring connections (main circuit and auxiliary) are the same. Only the current adjustment range differs, so verify that the -1JC0 range covers your motor FLA."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/siemens/3RU2116-1JC0","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/3RU2116-1JC0 when reusing this data.
