Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 4-pole main contact configuration (NO) provides consistent power switching for multi-line loads, delivering predictable startup currents and reducing arc energy, which translates to longer contact life in demanding conveyors and pumps. This supports improved uptime and lower maintenance costs in continuous operation environments. Application: motor control, line-start conveyors, pumps, and presses where reliable AC-1 and AC-3 switching is essential. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 690 V rated main circuit voltage paired with a 24 V control circuit (50/60 Hz) enables integration with standard plant control systems while maintaining safe, centralized control across multiple devices. Application: high-voltage motor starters and machine control networks. Feature → Business Impact → Application: screw terminals and DIN rail mounting (TH35-15 or TH35-7.5) offer fast, secure termination and easy installation in compact panels. Application: space-constrained control cabinets and retrofit projects. Feature → Business Impact → Application: compatibility with add-on auxiliary contact blocks and AF platform accessories supports scalable control logic, reducing future wiring changes and enabling expanded control schemes. Application: custom logic for safety interlocks and sequenced automation. Feature → Business Impact → Application: energy efficiency with low coil power (8 VA holding, 70 VA pull-in at 50 Hz, 66 VA at 60 Hz) minimizes standby consumption and reduces operating costs in high-cycle applications. Application: continuous operation equipment and energy-conscious plant design.

FAQs
Yes. The device uses a 24 V AC control coil (50/60 Hz) to switch a 690 V main circuit. This combination supports integration with standard control circuits and high-voltage motor loads, enabling safe and reliable operation in industrial automation environments.
A 4-pole design provides symmetry for multi-line loads and better current distribution, improving reliability for AC-3 duty. This reduces contact wear and improves switch life under high-inertia motor starts, making it well-suited for conveyors, pumps, and machine tools in demanding industrial settings.
Mount on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 DIN rails for quick installation. Main circuit is compatible with flexible or rigid conductors, with screw terminals and a recommended tightening torque of 2.5 N·m. Control circuit connections use 0.75–2.5 mm² flexible or 0.75–2.5 mm² rigid conductors, simplifying field wiring.
The product aligns with IEC/EN 60947-1, IEC/EN 60947-4-1, UL 60947-1, UL 60947-4-1, and CE/UKCA declarations. These certifications ensure safety, performance, and interoperability in global markets, helping you meet regulatory requirements for industrial electrical equipment and reducing risk during audits.
Expect lower downtime due to reliable energization and longer contact life from robust 4-pole design and IP20 protection. Coil efficiency (8 VA holding) reduces standby energy, contributing to lower operating costs over time. The ability to add auxiliary blocks also supports scalable control logic, improving long-term ROI through easier upgrades.
