Product details

The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2516-1AB00 is a size S00 contactor with a 24 V 50/60 Hz coil and screw-type terminals. It switches resistive loads up to 10 A at 230 V AC-1, and motor loads up to 10 A at 24 V DC. The 45 mm wide body snaps onto a 35 mm DIN rail per EN 50022, and the mounting position allows ±180° rotation on a vertical surface plus ±22.5° tilt forward and backward — useful when routing cables in a tight gland plate.

Screw-type terminals accept 2x (0.5…1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75…2.5 mm²), or 2x 4 mm² solid or stranded conductors.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings of this contactor?

Coil voltage is 24 V at 50/60 Hz. Rated switching current is 10 A at 24 V DC and 10 A at 230 V AC. The contactor is size S00 with screw-type terminals.

What clearance is needed around the contactor?

Zero clearance above, below, forward, and backward; 6 mm clearance required at the side. This allows dense packing on the DIN rail.
