Siemens Industrial Controls 3RT2016-1AP01 Contactor
The Siemens 3RT2016-1AP01 is a high-performance SIRIUS Power Contactor engineered for Size S00 mounting in demanding industrial and HVACR control panels. This 3-pole unit supports a rated operational current of 9A (AC-3) at 400V, making it a reliable solution for switching three-phase motors up to 4 kW. Operating on a 230V AC 50/60 Hz coil, this contactor features 1 NO (normally open) integrated auxiliary contact to simplify control circuit wiring. Its screw-type terminal design ensures secure connections under high-vibration conditions, while the IP20 protection rating provides necessary safety for finger-safe maintenance. Designed for climate-independent operation, the 3RT20161AP01 is compatible with the modular SIRIUS system, allowing for the direct attachment of function modules or overload relays to create compact load feeders. Its high mechanical service life and electrical switching frequency make it a standard-issue component for contractors requiring consistent inductive load switching.
Key Benefits for Technicians:
- Compact S00 Footprint: Efficiently fits into tight control cabinets, maximizing rail density.
- Global Agency Compliance: Fully UL, CSA, and CE certified for international project specifications.
- Flexible Mounting: Supports DIN rail or screw-down mounting for versatile panel layouts.
- System Integration: Seamlessly interfaces with SIRIUS 3RU21 thermal overload relays for comprehensive motor protection.
- High Reliability: Optimized contact material minimizes arcing and extends the life of the power contactor.
Commonly Asked Questions:
What is the maximum horsepower rating for this contactor?
At 460V, the 3RT2016-1AP01 is typically rated for 5 HP motors, provided the Full Load Amps (FLA) do not exceed the 9A AC-3 rating.
Can I add additional auxiliary contacts to this unit?
Yes, the S00 frame allows for front-mounted auxiliary switch blocks to increase the number of available NO and NC contacts.
Is this contactor suitable for 208V control circuits?
This specific model is wound for a 230V AC coil. While it may pull in at 208V, it is outside the standard +/- 10% tolerance; a dedicated 208V coil is recommended to prevent coil burnout or humming.
