Product details

Side-by-side mounting is permitted with 6 mm gap between units — no forced spacing for thermal reasons, but that gap keeps the screwdriver accessible for the screw-type terminals. Dimensions are 45 mm wide, 57.5 mm high, 73 mm deep — a compact footprint for the S00 frame size. The screw-type terminals accept solid or stranded wire: 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), or 2x 4 mm². That covers most control-circuit wiring up to 4 mm² without needing ring lugs.

Auxiliary contact ratings and switching performance

The integrated auxiliary switch is rated for 10 A at 24 V DC and 10 A at 230 V AC, with lower ratings at intermediate voltages (2 A at 48 V DC, 2 A at 60 V DC, 1 A at 110 V DC, 0.3 A at 220 V DC, 3 A at 400 V AC, 0.1 A at 600 V AC). These are the make/break capacities for the auxiliary contacts — useful for signaling to a PLC or driving a small relay.

Environmental range and operating limits

The coil is rated at 200 V at 50 Hz and 200 to 220 V at 60 Hz — but this unit uses a 24 V DC coil, so those AC coil ratings apply to a different variant; the 24 V DC coil pull-in and hold characteristics follow the standard SIRIUS curve for the S00 frame.

Frequently asked questions

What is the depth of 3RT2516-1AN60?

The depth is 73 mm, with a width of 45 mm and height of 57.5 mm.

What wire sizes does the screw terminal accept?

Solid or stranded wire: 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), or 2x 4 mm².

Will 3RT2516-1AN60 drop into a panel specified for 3RT2526-1AF00?

Both are SIRIUS S00 contactors on the same 45 mm DIN-rail footprint, so the mechanical fit is the same. The key difference is the coil voltage: 3RT2516-1AN60 uses a 24 V DC coil, while the 3RT2526-1AF00 uses a different coil voltage. Verify the control voltage before swapping.

Where can I buy 3RT2516-1AN60 and how is it quoted?

Sourced through independent distribution channels. Quoted to order against an RFQ — availability and current pricing confirmed at quote time.
