SIRIUS 3RT1016-1AP61 — 24 VDC Power Contactor, Size S00
The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT1016-1AP61 is a power contactor in the S00 frame size, rated for a 24 VDC coil and a 10 A operating current at 24 V (AC-12). It mounts via screw or snap-on onto 35 mm DIN rail per EN 50022, with a width of 45 mm, height 57.5 mm, and depth 72 mm — fits standard panel layouts without surprises. The main circuit uses screw-type terminals accepting 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²) solid, 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75 to 4 mm²) — no special tooling needed for field wiring. Rated for 50/60 Hz operation, with an operating voltage range of 0.85 to 1.1 at 50 Hz and 0.8 to 1.1 at 60 Hz, and a maximum altitude of 2000 m.
Duty Ratings & Coordination
Motor switching capability: 4 kW at AC-2 / 400 V, and 8.5 A at AC-4 / 400 V for reversing or inching duty. Rated power at 500 V is 4.5 kW, at 690 V is 5.5 kW — covers common European motor voltages. Short-circuit coordination: Type 2 requires a 20 A gL/gG fuse; Type 1 allows a 35 A gL/gG fuse. Mechanical life typical 30 million operations — built for high-cycle applications.
Environmental & Mounting
Operating temperature range -25 to +60 °C, pollution degree 3, IP20 on front and terminals — suitable for industrial control panels with moderate contamination. Side-by-side mounting allowed with 6 mm clearance at the side; snap-on onto 35 mm DIN rail simplifies rail assembly.
