FAQs
Mount the device on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 DIN rails, using the two diagonal M4 screws for secure attachment. Wire the main circuit terminals with flexible or rigid conductors within 1/2 x 2.5–10 mm², and use screw terminals for reliable termination. Ensure coil connections follow the 400–415 V (50 Hz) or 480 V (60 Hz) control voltage ratings.
AC-1 at 690 V: up to 50 A (60 °C–42 A; 70 °C–37 A). AC-3 at 415 V: 38 A; at 440 V: 38 A; at 500 V: 33 A; at 690 V: 24 A; at 380/400 V: 38 A; at 220/230/240 V: 40 A. Rated power for AC-3 is 18.5 kW at 415 V and up to 22 kW at higher voltages depending on the network.
Yes. The unit supports AC-3 operation with a main circuit rating up to 38 A at 415 V, enabling robust motor starting and control for pumps, fans, and conveyors in typical 380–415 V industrial networks.
It carries IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, CSA, CE, UKCA, CB, CCC, BV, DNV and more. It also provides IP20 protection for coil and main terminals, aligning with global safety standards for industrial equipment.
Low coil power loss (2.4 W per pole AC-1; 1.3 W per pole AC-3) reduces heat and energy use. Long-term reliability is supported by robust mechanical life in typical switching frequencies and compatibility with add-on auxiliary blocks for scalable control, lowering total cost of ownership over the equipment’s life.
