Siemens Industrial Controls 3RT2016-1AV61 Contactor

The Siemens 3RT2016-1AV61 Contactor is a high-performance SIRIUS S00 power contactor designed for motor switching and industrial automation applications. This 3-pole non-reversing contactor features a 480V 60Hz AC coil and is rated for 9A AC-3 (up to 4 kW at 400V) and 22A AC-1, making it a reliable solution for rigorous HVACR and control circuit environments. This unit serves as the direct replacement for 151148 and the obsolete 3RT1016-1AV61, ensuring seamless integration into existing control panels without requiring extensive redesign. Built with screw terminals for secure electrical connections and a compact frame for DIN rail mounting, it provides high contact reliability even at low voltages. The integrated 1 NO auxiliary contact allows for efficient status monitoring, while the finger-safe design meets DIN VDE 0106 standards. Whether you are performing a field upgrade or a new installation, this industrial-grade component delivers the durability required for 3-phase motor control.
