Product details

It carries an auxiliary switch rated 10 A at 24 V, 2 A at 48 V, and 1 A at 110 V — enough for pilot duty or PLC output isolation in a standard control panel. The main contact rating is 20 to 12 A (likely AC-3 duty, though the evidence does not specify the duty class for that range). Clearance: 10 mm upward/downward/forward, 6 mm at the sides.

Switching rates and thermal limits

Maximum switching rates: 1,000 cycles/hour at AC-1 (resistive), 750 cycles/hour at AC-2 and AC-3 (motor starting/running), and 250 cycles/hour at AC-4 (plugging/inching). The AC-3e rate matches AC-3 at 750 cycles/hour. These are the mechanical limits; thermal derating applies above 40 °C ambient. Wire sizes accepted: solid or stranded 0.5 to 4 mm², with dual-wire capability: 2×(0.5–1.5 mm²), 2×(0.75–2.5 mm²), or 2×4 mm².

Frequently asked questions

Will the 3RT2016-1AR61 drop into a panel wired for the 3RT2015-1AV02?

Both are Size S00 contactors with screw terminals and 35 mm DIN rail mounting, so the footprint and wiring interface are identical. The primary difference is the coil voltage — the 3RT2015-1AV02 uses a different coil rating. Verify coil voltage compatibility before substitution.
