Product details

The 24 V AC coil (50/60 Hz) pulls in reliably across the full tolerance band (0.8...1.1 x Us at 50 Hz, 0.85...1.1 x Us at 60 Hz). The main contacts are rated 10 A in AC-12 duty (resistive loads) and deliver 3 kW at 400 V in AC-2 duty (slip-ring motors) or 6.5 A in AC-4 duty (plugging/reversing). For motor starting (AC-3), the part is rated 3.5 kW at 500 V and 4 kW at 690 V.

Screw terminals accept 2x (0.5...1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75...2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75...4 mm²) solid/stranded conductors; AWG equivalents are 2x (20...16), 2x (18...14), or 1x 12. The front and terminal areas carry IP20 protection — suitable for enclosed panels, not washdown zones.

The AC-12 rating (10 A) governs resistive heater or lighting loads. For motor applications, use the AC-3 power ratings: 3.5 kW at 500 V or 4 kW at 690 V. The AC-4 rating (6.5 A) matters if the contactor sees inching or reversing duty — that cycle wears the contacts faster. Short-circuit protection coordination: with type 2 coordination (minimal damage to the contactor after a fault), use a gL/gG fuse rated 20 A.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional alternative — 3RT1016-2AP02?

The 3RT1016-2AP02 is a physically larger contactor (S0 frame) with higher current ratings and a 24 V DC coil. It will not drop into the same DIN footprint (45 mm vs wider) and requires DC coil suppression. For a direct AC-coil replacement in the S00 frame, the 3RT1015-1AB01 is the correct variant; the -ZW98 suffix indicates a special version (customer-specific or customized variant). Verify the -ZW98 modifications with your Siemens contact before substituting.

What are the key ratings for this contactor?

Coil: 24 V AC 50/60 Hz. Main contacts: 10 A AC-12 resistive, 3.5 kW at 500 V AC-3, 4 kW at 690 V AC-3, 6.5 A AC-4. Mechanical life: 30 million operations. Pollution degree 3. Operating temperature: -25 to +60 °C.

What conductor sizes does the screw terminal accept?

Solid/stranded: 2x (0.5...1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75...2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75...4 mm²). AWG: 2x (20...16), 2x (18...14), or 1x 12.
