This AX32 block contactor is designed with a compact 54 mm width and supports front or side mounting auxiliary blocks, enabling flexible wiring and easy integration into standard panel layouts. Ensure space for the 90 mm depth and 108.3 mm height, and follow the torque recommendations for reliable terminal connections.
For AC-3 operation, Ie is 32 A at 415/440 V and 28–32 A at various voltages, with 21 A at 690 V. These values reflect the device’s suitability for motor starting and short-term duty in mid-sized three-phase drives, balancing switching performance and thermal limits.
Yes. With three main NO contacts, a built-in NC auxiliary contact, and a 690 V insulation rating, it is well-suited for motor control in conveyors and pumps. The device supports reliable switching at common control voltages and provides a compact footprint for panel-intensive environments.
The product carries CE and UL certifications, RoHS/REACH compliance, CCC and CQC listings, and UL/CSA general use ratings. These certifications validate safety, environmental compliance, and suitability for global manufacturing and distribution, reducing regulatory risk in audits and customer specifications.
The device delivers energy-efficient operation with 2.5 W power loss per pole in AC-1 and 0.9 W per pole in AC-3, plus high reliability and low maintenance due to solid-state-compatible design. Increases in uptime, reduced wiring complexity, and lifecycle cost reductions contribute to a favorable ROI in OEM projects and modernized control panels.
