Compliance Documentation Available
The 3RT20251AP00 carries ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected declarations per source evidence. Export classification codes (ECCN: EAR99; HTSUS: 8536.49.0065) are published. However, downloadable Declaration of Conformity (PDF) and IEC 60947-4-1 test report references are not included in current evidence—procurement teams qualifying for panel-build UL/IEC acceptance must verify document availability directly with the distributor or Siemens technical support before PO commitment.

Substitution and Cross-Reference
The 3RT20251AP60 (240VAC coil) is pin-compatible at the 3RT2025 base level with identical 40A contact rating and switching voltage. Coil voltage difference (240VAC vs 230VAC) and must-operate threshold (192VAC vs 184VAC) mean substitution requires circuit verification. The 3RT20251AP04 offers 2NO/2NC auxiliary layout but rated 17A—higher coil power at 65VA, different operate time (40ms). Mechanical/electrical life ratings are not present in current evidence.
Procurement Notes
- Product Status: Active
- Lead Time: Not in current evidence; confirm via RFQ for panel quantities (10-100)
Engineer's notes — electrical baseline
Treat the raw specification table as authoritative for siemens 3RT20251AP00 (CONTACTOR S0 16A 230VAC 1NO/1NC); category path: Relays > Contactors (Electromechanical); confirmed specs: series: 3RT2; Mounting Type: Chassis Mount, DIN Rail; Package: Bulk; Product Status: Active. Cross-check electrical limits, mounting style, output type, and lifecycle status against the target panel or machine design before freezing the BOM line or authorizing a field swap.
Commissioning field notes
Before energizing or replacing the module, align cabinet power rails, wiring plan, load type, terminal layout, and temperature class with both the manufacturer documentation and the as-built BOM.
Selection notes for footprint and electrical verification
Approve this line only when MPN, manufacturer, series, supply voltage, I/O style, mounting, and application role match the design intent. For alternates, diff the same fields first, then validate software/project hooks.
