FAQs
This four-pole block contactor excels in high‑power motor control, conveyors, pumps, and other automated drives. Its 690 V main circuit and 2 NO + 2 NC configuration support synchronized switching, reducing wiring complexity and enabling reliable control in manufacturing lines and material handling systems.
Choose coil voltage to match your control supply: 380–400 V AC at 50 Hz or 400–415 V AC at 60 Hz. Matching the control voltage minimizes energy consumption, improves pull‑in reliability, and reduces heat in the control circuit, contributing to longer coil life and steadier operation.
Yes. The 1SBL341501R8500 complies with IEC/EN 60947‑1 and 60947‑4‑1, with UL/CSA recognition and CE marking. It also supports RoHS/REACH declarations, ensuring regulatory compliance across major markets for safer panel builds and OEM equipment.
Mounting options include DIN rail TH35-15 or two M4/M6 screws. Terminal torque specs are 4 N·m for the main circuit and 1.2 N·m for the control circuit. Use screw terminals for robust connections and ensure IP20 protection at coil terminals and IP10 at main terminals for panel mounting.
With a fast operate time (4–14 ms de-energization, 7–21 ms energization) and a mechanical life of up to 3600 cycles per hour, it supports frequent start‑stop duty. Short-time withstand tests up to 1000 A enhance reliability in demanding lines, reducing unplanned downtime and maintenance costs.
