SIRIUS 3RT2516-2AB00 — Size S00 Contactor, 24 V Coil, 10 A Rated Current
The Siemens SIRIUS 3RT2516-2AB00 is a Size S00 contactor with a 24 V coil rated for both 50 Hz and 60 Hz operation, delivering a rated operational current of 10 A at 24 V. The spring-type terminals accept 2x (0.5 to 4 mm²) solid or stranded wire, and the unit snaps onto 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 50022 or mounts with screws.
The 73 mm depth, 45 mm width, and 70 mm height define the envelope for DIN-rail spacing.
Switching Capacity Across Voltages
The auxiliary contacts on this contactor handle a range of voltage ratings: 10 A at 24 V, 10 A at 230 V, 3 A at 400 V, and 0.1 A at 600 V. At 48 V and 60 V the rating is 2 A; at 110 V it is 1 A; at 220 V it drops to 0.3 A; at 440 V it is 0.8 A; and at 125 V it is 2 A. These values reflect the switching capability of the built-in auxiliary switch across different control voltages — useful when the contactor drives both the main load and a signaling circuit from the same device.
