Product details

Siemens 3RT2016-2BG42 — SIRIUS Power Contactor, Size S00

It carries a 24 VDC coil and spring-type terminals for tool-free wiring of solid or stranded conductors from 0.5 to 4 mm². At 24 V rated value the main contacts switch 10 A; at 400 V rated value the contactor handles 3 A. The 45 mm width and 73 mm depth keep panel density tight — three units fit in a 145 mm wide DIN section with room for a terminal block.

Integration & Clearance

Minimum clearances to adjacent components: 10 mm upwards, 10 mm forwards, 10 mm downwards, 6 mm at the side. The mounting position allows +/-180° rotation on a vertical surface and +/-22.5° tilt forward or backward, which covers most panel layouts without derating. Operating temperature range is -25 to +60 °C; storage range -55 to +80 °C. The contactor is rated for 30 million mechanical operations typical, with maximum switching rates of 1000 cycles/hour at AC-1 and 750 cycles/hour at AC-3.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy the 3RT2016-2BG42 and get a price?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for the exact quantity and delivery window.

What is the depth of the 3RT2016-2BG42?

The depth is 73 mm, width 45 mm, height 70 mm. The compact S00 footprint fits standard 35 mm DIN rail sections.

What wire sizes does the spring terminal accept?

Solid or stranded conductors from 0.5 to 4 mm², including 2x (0.5 to 4 mm²) for paralleled wires. Strip length is not listed but spring-cage terminals typically require 8–10 mm.
