The Siemens 3RT6017-1AF01 is a SIRIUS S00 power contactor with screw-type terminals, sized for motor loads up to 7.5 kW at 230 V, 13 kW at 400 V, and 22 kW at 690 V — all at a 60°C ambient that keeps the machine running in a hot mill or panel without derating.
Motor ratings at 60 °C ambient
This contactor is rated for three-phase motor switching at a 60 °C ambient — 7.5 kW at 230 V, 13 kW at 400 V, and 22 kW at 690 V.
Switching frequency and coil data
Mechanical switching frequency reaches 10 000 cycles per hour, with AC-3 duty limited to 750 cycles per hour and AC-4 to 250 cycles per hour — the AC-4 figure is the one to watch for plugging or inching applications. The 24 V DC coil draws 6 A inrush, dropping to 0.25 A holding at 50 or 60 Hz; at 230 V AC the inrush is 10 A.
Screw-type terminals accept 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), or a single 4 mm² conductor — solid or stranded with ferrules. Side-by-side mounting is permitted with no derating gap, which saves DIN rail space in a multi-contactor motor control center.
