Siemens 3RT2016-1AQ01 — SIRIUS Power Contactor, Size S00
The main contact ratings follow the AC duty classes: AC-1 maximum 1000 switching cycles per hour, AC-2 and AC-3 at 750 cycles/h, AC-4 at 250 cycles/h. The AC-3e rating also sits at 750 cycles/h. Wire termination accepts solid or stranded conductors from 0.5 mm² up to 4 mm², with dual-wire capacity for certain combinations (2x 0.5-1.5 mm², 2x 0.75-2.5 mm², 2x 4 mm²). This covers typical control wiring sizes found in panel building. Physical dimensions: 45 mm wide, 58 mm high, 73 mm deep. The depth matters when planning enclosure depth — a standard 80 mm deep enclosure may be tight once wiring clearance is added. Ambient temperature derating may apply above 40 °C for continuous duty.
The 3RT2016-1AQ01 is listed at a current lifecycle stage.
The size S00 frame occupies a single 45 mm width unit on the rail. For panels with high density, maintain the 6 mm side clearance to adjacent devices for airflow and wiring access.
