Product details

SIRIUS size S00 power contactor — DC switching and panel fit

DC switching capability is the headline: 10 A at 24 V, 2 A at 60 V, 1 A at 110 V, and 0.3 A at 220 V. These are DC-1 resistive load ratings; for inductive DC loads the arcing time of 10–15 ms means the contact gap must extinguish the arc within that window, so verify the load time constant against the contactor's DC switching curve. The main circuit carries a rated impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV. Terminals are screw-type, accepting 2x (0.5–1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75–2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75–4 mm²) solid or stranded copper.

The contactor is rated for operation up to 2,000 m altitude without derating. This allows panel layouts where the contactor sits at an angle to fit cable routing or busbar access.

Frequently asked questions

What are the DC switching ratings for 3RT1516-1AP00?

DC-1 resistive ratings: 10 A at 24 V, 2 A at 60 V, 1 A at 110 V, 0.3 A at 220 V. For inductive DC loads, account for the 10–15 ms arcing time and verify the load time constant.

What is the mounting footprint of 3RT1516-1AP00?

Width 45 mm, height 57.5 mm, depth 72 mm. It snaps onto 35 mm DIN rail per EN 50022 and allows side-by-side mounting without spacing.

Where can I buy 3RT1516-1AP00?
