Product details

The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2016-2XJ42-0LA2 is a size S00 contactor with a 72 V DC coil and spring-type terminals, designed for snap-on mounting onto 35 mm standard mounting rail per DIN EN 50022.

DC coil and contact ratings

The 72 V DC coil draws a holding current that keeps the contactor engaged down to 0.7 of rated voltage, with a dropout delay of 25 to 45 ms when de-energized. Main contacts are rated for a range of DC loads: 10 A at 24 V, 2 A at 48 V, 2 A at 60 V, 1 A at 110 V, 0.9 A at 125 V, 0.3 A at 220 V, 3 A at 400 V, 2 A at 500 V, 1 A at 690 V, and 7.6 A at 480 V / 9 A at 600 V for AC loads.

The 45 mm wide body mounts on a 35 mm DIN rail (screw and snap-on) and requires 10 mm clearance upwards, 10 mm forwards, 10 mm downwards, and 6 mm at the side for proper ventilation and arc containment.

Terminal wiring

Spring-type terminals accept solid or stranded conductors: 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), and 2x 4 mm².

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional second-source for 3RT2016-2XJ42-0LA2?

The 3RT2016-1AK22 is a close peer within the same size S00 family, but it uses a screw terminal rather than the spring-type terminals of the 2XJ42 variant. Verify coil voltage and auxiliary contact configuration before substitution.

Will 3RT2016-2XJ42-0LA2 drop into a panel specified around 3RT2016-1AK22 without rewiring?

Mechanically yes — both share the same 45 mm width, S00 frame, and DIN rail mounting. However, the 2XJ42 uses spring-type terminals while the 1AK22 uses screw terminals, so the wiring method differs. Check that the conductor sizes match the spring terminal ranges.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3RT2016-2XJ42-0LA2?

Siemens SIRIUS contactors typically carry UL, CSA, CE, and RoHS compliance documentation. Specific certificates for this order code should be requested at quote time.
