Product details

Rated for 5.5 kW at 690 V AC and 4.5 kW at 500 V AC, it handles the usual 400 V three-phase motor circuit comfortably. Mechanical life is typical 30 million operations, so it's not a short-life commodity part.

Width is 45 mm, height 57.5 mm, depth 114 mm — the S00 envelope. Side-by-side mounting is allowed with zero gap, so you can pack a row of these on a DIN rail without wasting panel width. Main circuit terminals are screw-type, accepting solid or stranded wire: 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75 to 4 mm²). AWG equivalents are 2x (20 to 16), 2x (18 to 14), and single 12 AWG. Strip length is standard for a screw clamp — no push-in convenience here, but the terminal is the same across the S00 line, so your panel builders already know the torque spec.

These are the manufacturer's specified values for the main circuit — use them to size the branch protection without over-fusing.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3RT1016-1AM15?

Submit an RFQ through the distributor desk. Pricing and stock are confirmed at quote time; this part is sourced to order through independent distribution channels.

What is 3RT1016-1AM15's depth?

Listed depth is 114 mm, which is standard for the S00 frame size in this SIRIUS series.

What wire sizes does the 3RT1016-1AM15 accept on the main terminals?

Screw terminals accept 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75 to 4 mm²) solid/stranded. AWG equivalents are 2x (20 to 16), 2x (18 to 14), and single 12 AWG.

Will 3RT1016-1AM15 drop into a panel specified around 3RT1016-1AG61 without rewiring?

Both are Size S00 contactors with the same 45 mm width, DIN-rail mounting, and screw-type main terminals, so the mechanical fit and wiring footprint are identical. The key difference is the coil voltage — the 1AM15 variant uses a different coil rating than the 1AG61, so verify the control circuit voltage matches before swapping.
