The Siemens 3RT7016-1AB02 is a size S00 contactor with three normally-open main poles, rated for AC-3 switching up to 690 V maximum. The coil is 24 V AC at 50/60 Hz, drawing 0.27 A at both frequencies. Main circuit screw terminals accept 2x (0.5...1.5 mm²) solid/stranded or 2x (0.75...2.5 mm²) finely stranded with ferrules. Auxiliary contacts are rated for PLC-level signals (17 V, 5 mA minimum), so they can drive a digital input directly without a separate interface relay.
The 45 mm width (three 15 mm modules) fits standard enclosure cutouts. Side-by-side mounting is permitted with no derating gap.
For type of coordination 2, the required backup fuse is gL/gG NH 3NA: 20 A. For type 1 coordination, 35 A. Operating temperature range is -10 to +55 °C; storage from -25 to +70 °C. Shock resistance: 9.8g at 5 ms, 5.9g at 10 ms sine pulse.
