Product details

The 3RT2016-2AB02-ZW96: The coil is 24 VDC, terminated with spring-type terminals, and the main contacts are rated for AC-3 duty at 750 switching cycles per hour maximum. It mounts via screw or snap-on onto a 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 60715, and the mounting position allows +/-180° rotation on a vertical surface, plus +/-22.5° tilt forward/backward.

Switching frequency varies by duty class: 1,000 cycles/hour for AC-1 (resistive), 750 cycles/hour for AC-2 and AC-3 (motor start/run), and 250 cycles/hour for AC-4 (plugging/inching). The AC-3e rating also caps at 750 cycles/hour. The auxiliary switch is rated for 10 A at 24 V, 2 A at 48/60 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 make/break capacities for the auxiliary contacts, not the main poles.

The SIRIUS S00 platform is widely used, and the 3RT2016 base model is a common BOM line item. The -ZW96 suffix indicates a special variant.
