Product details

The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT1016-1AR11 is a size S00 power contactor rated for 4 kW at 400 V in AC-3 duty, meaning it switches three-phase squirrel-cage motors up to that load. The 24 VDC coil is standard for PLC-driven panels. Three normally-open main contacts handle the power circuit; there are no auxiliary contacts built into this base unit.

Short-circuit coordination is specified: Type 2 coordination requires a 20 A gL/gG fuse, while Type 1 coordination allows a 35 A gL/gG fuse. This matters for selectivity studies and panel SCCR calculations — the fuse size directly affects the let-through energy the contactor must survive. The screw-type terminals accept 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²) solid, 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²) solid, or up to 2x (0.75 to 4 mm²) solid — covering the common control and power wiring sizes for a 4 kW motor circuit. AWG equivalents are 2x (20 to 16), 2x (18 to 14), and 1x 12. Front IP20 protection means the contactor is safe from finger contact when mounted in an enclosure — standard for control panels.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional alternative if 3RT1016-1AR11 is unavailable?

The 3RT1016-2AP02 is a sibling in the same S00 frame size with the same 4 kW AC-3 rating, but uses spring-cage terminals instead of screw terminals. The 3RT1016-1AN22 has a different coil voltage (230 VAC 50 Hz / 240 VAC 60 Hz). Verify coil voltage and terminal preference before substituting.

What is the depth of this contactor?

The depth is 72 mm from the mounting surface to the front of the device.

What wire sizes does the screw terminal accept?

Solid wire: 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), max 2x (0.75 to 4 mm²). AWG equivalents: 2x (20 to 16), 2x (18 to 14), 1x 12.

Will 3RT1016-1AR11 drop into a panel designed for 3RT1016-2AP02?

Yes, the physical footprint is identical — same S00 frame size, same 45 mm width, same DIN rail mounting. The only difference is the terminal type: screw terminals on the -1AR11 versus spring-cage terminals on the -2AP02. No rewiring of the mounting or bus bars is needed, but the wire termination method differs.
