Product details

Integrator note — 3RT2016-2BB42-ZW96

The 24 VDC coil pulls in at 0.8 of rated voltage and holds across the full operating range of -25 to +60 °C. Rated switching current at 24 V is 10 A, which covers small motors, solenoid valves, and lighting contactor duty within the S00 thermal limits. Spring-type terminals accept solid or stranded conductors from 0.5 to 4 mm², with dual-wire capability up to 2x 4 mm². The contactor mounts via screw or snap-on onto 35 mm DIN rail per EN 60715, and the mounting position allows ±180° rotation on a vertical surface plus ±22.5° tilt forward/backward — useful when fitting into tight gland-plate layouts.

Duty-cycle and switching frequency

Maximum switching frequency depends on the load category: 1 000 operations per hour for AC-1 resistive loads, 750/h for AC-2 and AC-3 motor starting, and 250/h for AC-4 plugging or inching duty. The AC-3e rating also permits 750/h.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3RT2016-2BB42-ZW96 and get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current availability and pricing — no stock or price figures are published here.

What is the depth of 3RT2016-2BB42-ZW96?

The depth is 73 mm, with a width of 45 mm and height of 70 mm. Clearance requirements: 10 mm upwards, 10 mm forwards, 10 mm downwards, and 6 mm at the side.

What wire sizes does the spring terminal accept?

Solid or stranded conductors from 0.5 to 4 mm², and dual-wire up to 2x (0.5 to 4 mm²).

Will 3RT2016-2BB42-ZW96 drop into a panel specified around 3RT2016-1AK22?

Both are Size S00 SIRIUS contactors with the same mounting footprint on 35 mm DIN rail and similar terminal ranges. The main difference is the coil voltage — this unit is 24 VDC; verify the 1AK22 coil rating before substitution. Mechanical fit is identical.
