Product details

SIRIUS S00 contactor for 24 VDC control circuits

The 3RT2016-1CN27: Rated operating temperature range is -25 to +60 °C during operation and -55 to +80 °C during storage, which covers most control cabinet environments without forced cooling.

The 45 mm wide, 58 mm high, 117 mm deep footprint fits standard S00 contactor spacing. Main and coil terminals accept solid or stranded wire: 0.5 to 4 mm² single, or 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), and 2x 4 mm². No auxiliary switch block is included on this variant.

Switching performance and mechanical life

Maximum switching frequency varies by duty: 1,000 cycles/h for AC-1 resistive loads, 750 cycles/h for AC-2 and AC-3 motor starting, 250 cycles/h for AC-4 plugging/reversing, and 750 cycles/h for AC-3e. Arcing time spans 10 to 15 ms at AC; the contactor's opening time is 4 to 15 ms at AC. The 24 VDC coil draws 0.25 A at both 50 Hz and 60 Hz.

Breaking capacity for DC control loads

Rated breaking capacity at 24 VDC is 6 A, at 48 VDC is 2 A, at 60 VDC is 2 A, at 110 VDC is 1 A, at 125 VDC is 0.9 A, at 220 VDC is 0.3 A, and at 440 VDC is 0.2 A. At 400 VDC it breaks 3 A. The 230 VAC rating is 1 hp, confirming motor-switching capability at that voltage level.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional alternative to the 3RT2016-1CN27?

The 3RT2016-1AP01-ZX95 is a peer variant within the same SIRIUS S00 family. The primary difference is the coil voltage and any special ZX95 options; the mechanical footprint and terminal layout are shared, so it drops into the same DIN rail position without rewiring the main circuit.

What are the key dimensions and clearances for panel layout?

Width is 45 mm, height is 58 mm, depth is 117 mm. Required clearances: 10 mm upward, 10 mm downward, 10 mm forward, and 6 mm to the side.

What wire sizes does the 3RT2016-1CN27 accept?

Solid or stranded wire from 0.5 to 4 mm² single conductor, or two conductors: 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), and 2x 4 mm².

What compliance documentation is available for this contactor?

As a standard Siemens SIRIUS catalog product, it carries CE marking for the European market and is designed to meet relevant IEC/EN standards. Specific declarations (RoHS, REACH, UL file) are published on the Siemens Industry Online Support portal under the 3RT2016-1CN27 product number.
