With a 110 V AC, 50/60 Hz coil and a motor rating of 5.5 kW at 400 V, the Siemens 3RT2017-1AF01 is the size S00 member of the SIRIUS 3RT2 contactor range for 12 A AC-3 duty. It has 1 NO integrated auxiliary contact, and Siemens rates it at 22 A for resistive (AC-1) loads at 40 °C. Siemens quotes a typical mechanical life of 30,000,000 operating cycles for this contactor.
A contactor is the switching element of a motor starter: the PLC or a push-button energises the coil, and the main contacts connect the motor to the supply. Contactors wear with every start, so they are among the most frequently replaced parts in motor control centres.

Typical applications
- Replacement of a worn 3RT2 contactor with the same rating
- Direct-on-line starters for motors up to 5.5 kW at 400 V
- Switching heaters and resistive loads (AC-1)
- Pump, fan and compressor control panels
Compatibility and replacement
For overload protection mount a SIRIUS 3RU2 thermal overload relay of size S00 directly under the contactor, or combine it with a 3RV2 motor starter protector of the same size using the Siemens link module. Auxiliary contact blocks (3RH2911) can be snapped on the front to add more NO/NC contacts.
