FAQs
The unit supports DIN rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rails and can be installed using 2 x M4 screws (not supplied) for screw mounting. It uses screw terminals for main and control circuits, simplifying wiring and reducing field installation time in control panels.
Rated Operational Current AC-1 is 25 A at 690 V across 40 °C, 60 °C, and 70 °C, while Rated Operational Current AC-3 is 9 A at 415–500 V (depending on voltage) with corresponding power ratings. The maximum mechanical and electrical life support efficient switching in typical motor control duties.
Yes. It is designed with IP20 terminations and a wide ambient temperature range (-25 to 70 °C) with pollution degree 3, making it suitable for factory floors, conveyors, and HVAC drives where reliability and robustness are required.
It complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, and bears CE and UKCA declarations of conformity for broad market access, along with CB, BV, and other certificates to support global deployments.
Low coil consumption and energy loss per pole (0.8 W AC-1, 0.1 W AC-3) reduce running costs, while a high mechanical switching frequency supports high-cycle applications. Compact footprint, standardized terminals, and DIN-rail mounting simplify installation and spare-parts planning, improving uptime and lifecycle cost.
