Panel fit and wire termination for S00 contactor
The 3RT2017-2AN21: The coil connection uses spring-type terminals, which speed up wiring and hold firm under vibration — no screw torque to verify.
Switching capacity and duty-cycle ratings
Rated operational current at 24 V DC is 10 A for the main contacts — this is the continuous current the contactor can carry in DC-1 or DC-3 duty at that voltage. The AC-3e rating also caps at 750/h. Arcing time is specified at 10…15 ms under AC conditions; the make/break time at AC is 4…15 ms. These values matter for coordinating with upstream protection and for predicting contact wear in high-cycle applications. The contactor includes an auxiliary switch (1 NO + 1 NC typically, though the exact configuration should be confirmed from the product label). Main contact size range is 20…12 AWG, matching the terminal capacity.
Environmental limits and lifecycle status
The 3RT2017-2AN21 is a dedicated power contactor, not a logic module or PLC.
