Product details

The 45 mm width and 73 mm depth fit standard enclosure layouts, and the mounting position allows +/-180° rotation on a vertical surface plus +/-22.5° tilt forward/backward — useful when the panel layout is tight. Wire sizes accepted: solid or stranded 0.5 to 4 mm², and up to 2x 4 mm² or 2x (0.75...2.5 mm²).

DC Switching Capacity

DC switching ratings are specified per voltage: 10 A at 24 V, 2 A at 48 V and 60 V, 1 A at 110 V, 0.9 A at 125 V, 0.3 A at 220 V, and 3 A at 400 V. These are the contactor's make/break limits for DC resistive loads — important for battery-backed or rectified circuits where DC arc extinction is harder than AC.

Maximum switching frequency varies by duty: 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). Typical mechanical life is 30,000,000 operations.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional second-source to 3RT2016-1BF42?

The 3RT2024-2BB40 is a larger-frame SIRIUS contactor (S0 vs S00) with a different coil voltage and terminal arrangement. It will not drop into the same panel footprint without rewiring — the S00 frame is 45 mm wide, while the S0 frame is wider. Stick with the S00 frame for a direct mechanical fit.

What wire sizes does the 3RT2016-1BF42 accept?

Solid or stranded 0.5 to 4 mm², and up to 2x 4 mm² or 2x (0.75...2.5 mm²).
