The Siemens 3RT2916-1BE00 is a varistor-based surge suppressor designed to protect control circuits and connected equipment from voltage spikes caused by inductive loads. Rated for 240–400 V AC at 50/60 Hz, this surge suppressor is specifically engineered for use with Siemens 3RT2.1 contactors and 3RH2 auxiliary contactors. By absorbing transient overvoltages during switching operations, the 3RT2916-1BE00 helps extend component life and improve overall system reliability.
Built to Siemens specifications, the 3RT2916-1BE00 integrates seamlessly with compatible contactors without requiring additional wiring modifications. The varistor technology reacts quickly to voltage surges, limiting peak voltages and reducing electrical stress on coils, PLC outputs, and control electronics. This makes it an essential accessory for automation panels where frequent switching occurs, and the protection of sensitive components is critical.
The primary benefit of the Siemens 3RT2916-1BE00 is improved system protection and reduced downtime. Suppressing harmful voltage spikes helps prevent premature failure of contactors and connected control devices. Its compact design allows easy installation in crowded control panels, while its proven reliability makes it suitable for continuous industrial operation. Using the correct Siemens surge suppressor also supports cleaner signal performance and more stable control behavior.
The Siemens 3RT2916-1BE00 is commonly used in industrial control panels, motor control centers, and automation systems where Siemens contactors are installed. Typical applications include manufacturing equipment, material handling systems, conveyors, pumps, compressors, and HVAC systems. Any application with frequent contactor switching can benefit from the added protection this surge suppressor provides.
The Siemens 3RT2916-1BE00 surge suppressor is immediately available from MRO Electric and Supply, helping customers avoid delays and unexpected downtime. Each unit is backed by a 2-year MRO Electric warranty, offering confidence and protection with every purchase. With fast shipping, tested components, and expert support, MRO Electric is a trusted source for Siemens industrial automation parts.
