FAQs
The 1SBL271001R8500 uses TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 DIN rail mounting and screw terminals for main and control circuits. Install the device on a standard 35x15 or 35x7.5 mm rail, secure with proper torque values (Main circuit 2.5 N·m, Control circuit 1.2 N·m), and wire according to the outlined connecting capacities (flexible and rigid options up to 10 mm²). This provides a compact, reliable panel integration with straightforward maintenance.
For AC-3 duty the Rated Operational Current at 415 V is 32 A (60 °C) and remains 32 A at 440 V (60 °C). At higher voltages such as 500 V and 690 V the current reduces to 28 A and 21 A, respectively, with AC-3e matching these values. The Rated Operational Power ranges up to 18.5 kW (various voltages), enabling reliable motor control within these ranges.
Yes. The contactor supports coil voltages of 380–400 V for 50 Hz and 400–415 V for 60 Hz networks, making it suitable for global motor control applications. This coil range aligns with common European and North American voltage profiles, enabling flexible deployment in mixed-voltage facilities.
This model complies with IEC/EN 60947-4-1, IEC/EN 60947-1, UL 60947-4-1, and CSA C22.2 No. 60947-4-1, plus CE marking. These certifications confirm electrical safety, compatibility with UL/CSA requirements, and conformity with European standards, reducing compliance risk for global deployments and end-user acceptance across markets.
The 1SBL271001R8500 offers low coil power loss (AC-1 2.4 W per pole; AC-3 0.9 W per pole), compact dimensions, durable screw-terminal wiring, and DIN-rail compatibility, which reduce heat load, wiring time, and panel space. Extendability with auxiliary blocks supports future control scheme upgrades, delivering lower maintenance costs and faster ROI through scalable automation.
