FAQs
This block contactor supports DIN rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rails and can be screwed into panels with 2 x M4 screws. Its compact 45 mm width and weight of 0.298 kg simplify retrofits and space-constrained installations in control panels.
Yes. It is rated for AC-1 up to 30 A at 690 V and AC-3 ratings depend on voltage and temperature (18 A at 415–690 V ranges). It also offers a high breaking capacity and a 9 kW power rating at common voltages, aligning with typical motor control and general power switching needs.
The coil control circuit covers 50 Hz at 400–415 V and 60 Hz at 415–440 V. Coil consumption is optimized for reduced heat (average holding 8 V·A; pull-in values around 66–70 V·A), contributing to energy efficiency and improved lifecycle performance in continuous-operation scenarios.
It adheres to IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, and carries CE conformity. Additional certifications cited include BV, CB, CQC, CCC, UKCA and others listed in the product declarations, supporting global deployment in regulated environments.
Use proper tightening: Main circuit 1.5 N·m, Control circuit 1.2 N·m, with flexible/ferrule connections up to 6 mm². Choose compatible accessory blocks for auxiliary contacts, ensure IP20 protection, maintain ambient ranges (−25 to 60 °C with relay options), and plan for DIN-rail mounting to simplify maintenance and replacements over time.
