FAQs
The unit supports DIN rail mounting TH35-15 and TH35-7.5, enabling quick installation in standard control panels. It can also be screwed to panels using two M4 screws diagonally for a secure fit in non-DIN rail environments.
For AC-1, the rated operational current at 690 V is 45 A at 40 °C, 40 A at 60 °C, and 32 A at 70 °C. For AC-3 at 690 V, the device handles about 10.5 A, with higher ratings at lower voltages such as 22 A at 380/400 V and 23.2 A at 220/230/240 V, with corresponding power handling up to 11 kW at several voltages.
Yes. The control circuit voltages are 175 V for 50 Hz and 208 V for 60 Hz, aligning with common international control standards and simplifying integration into global equipment without voltage conversion.
It complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and IEC/EN 60947-4-1, UL 60947-1 and UL 60947-4-1, and is CE declared. Additional certifications cited include BV, CB, CCC, UKCA, DNV and RINA, reflecting broad regulatory acceptance and suitability for global deployments.
Choose screw terminals or ferrule connections for robust wiring, ensure IP20 protection in indoor panels, and leverage add-on auxiliary contact blocks and accessories to extend functionality. The compact 45 mm net width and 101 mm depth simplify panel layouts, reducing material costs and downtime during maintenance.
