Product details

The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2016-1UB42 is a size S00 power contactor with a 24 VDC magnet coil and screw-type terminals, designed for snap-on mounting onto 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 60715.

Coil holds at 24 VDC nominal with an operating range of 0.8 to 1.1 times the rated value — so it picks reliably down to about 19.2 V and drops out below that. Switching currents vary by 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. For motor starting duty (AC-3), the maximum switching frequency is 750 operations per hour; for resistive loads (AC-1) it reaches 1,000 per hour, and for severe inrush duty (AC-4) it drops to 250 per hour.

That 6 mm side clearance is tighter than many contactors — plan your DIN-rail layout accordingly if you're packing multiple units side-by-side.

Terminal Wiring

For dual-wire termination, the range is 2× (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2× (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), or 2× 4 mm². Strip length and torque values follow standard Siemens practice for the S00 frame — no special tooling needed.

The contactor includes a built-in auxiliary switch. Lifecycle status is current production — this is an active catalog part, not a phase-out or NRND item.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3RT2016-1UB42 and what is the lead time?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm lead time and price.

Will 3RT2016-1UB42 drop into a panel specified for 3RT2016-1AG62?

Both are size S00 SIRIUS contactors with the same 45 mm width and DIN-rail mounting footprint, so the mechanical fit is identical. The difference is the coil voltage: 3RT2016-1UB42 uses a 24 VDC coil, while 3RT2016-1AG62 uses a different coil voltage — verify the control circuit voltage before swapping.

What is the depth of 3RT2016-1UB42?

The depth is 73 mm, with a width of 45 mm and height of 58 mm — the standard S00 frame dimensions.

What wire sizes does the 3RT2016-1UB42 accept?

Solid or stranded conductors from 0.5 to 4 mm². Dual-wire termination supports 2× (0.5–1.5 mm²), 2× (0.75–2.5 mm²), or 2× 4 mm².

What compliance documentation is available for 3RT2016-1UB42?

As a current-production Siemens SIRIUS product, it carries CE marking and is designed to meet relevant IEC/EN standards for contactors. Specific declarations (RoHS, REACH, UL file) are available from Siemens upon request through the standard documentation portal.
