Product details

The headline motor ratings are 4.5 kW at 500 V and 5.5 kW at 690 V — these are the AC-3 duty figures that govern switching of standard squirrel-cage induction motors. For reversing or inching duty (AC-4), the contactor is rated 8.5 A at 400 V, which is the figure you size for plugging or jogging cycles where the contacts break full load current. Coordination is defined: Type 1 coordination requires a 35 A gL/gG fuse; Type 2 coordination (lower let-through for reduced contact damage) requires a 20 A gL/gG fuse. This lets the panel builder select the right upstream protection without guesswork. The screw-type 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 or stranded conductors, with AWG equivalents of 2x (20 to 16), 2x (18 to 14), and 1x 12. That covers the typical motor-circuit wire sizes for this frame.

DIN rail integration and environmental limits

The 45 x 57.5 x 72 mm envelope (width, height, depth) and side-by-side mounting capability mean you can pack multiple contactors on a single rail segment.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional alternative to this contactor?

The 3RT1016-2AP02 is the screw-terminal sibling without the ZW96 special code — same S00 frame, same motor ratings. The ZW96 suffix typically indicates a customer-specific variant or special marking; functionally, the 2AP02 drops into the same panel footprint and wiring scheme.

What wire sizes does the screw terminal accept?

The main circuit 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 or stranded. AWG equivalents are 2x (20 to 16), 2x (18 to 14), and 1x 12.

Does this contactor drop into a panel wired for the 3RT1016-2AP02?

Yes — both share the same S00 frame, same 45 mm width, same DIN rail mounting, and same terminal layout. The ZW96 suffix is a marking variant, not a mechanical or electrical change. No rewiring is needed.
