Feature → Business Impact → Application: 3-pole main contacts with 3 NO and 2 NO/2 NC auxiliary contacts enable compact, reliable motor start/stop control across 3-phase systems, reducing wiring complexity and cabinet space while supporting currents up to AC-1 and AC-3 ratings for diverse loads in conveyors and pumps. This translates to lower installed cost and improved uptime in machine automation. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 690 V rated main circuit and 24–60 V control circuit compatibility allow direct PLC and drive integration with common plant electronics, reducing interface adapters and simplifying commissioning for machine builders and system integrators. Feature → Business Impact → Application: DIN rail TH35 mounting and screw-terminal connectivity deliver fast, vibration-resistant installation with scalable wiring options; compatible with 4–35 mm² main conductors and 0.75–2.5 mm² control conductors for flexible panel design. Feature → Business Impact → Application: High switching capacity and defined short-time withstand ratings (Icw) ensure safe operation during motor startup transients, minimizing contact wear and maintenance needs in high-cycle applications such as packaging lines and metalworking equipment. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Broad standards and certifications (IEC/EN, UL, CSA) plus RoHS/REACH compliance reduce regulatory risk for global deployments across NA and EU markets, supporting cross-border product launches and supplier qualification. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Low power loss per pole improves energy efficiency in frequent operation scenarios, contributing to reduced heat generation and lower cooling requirements in dense switchgear assemblies.

FAQs

Install the unit on a TH35 DIN rail (TH35-15 or TH35-7.5) or with approved screws. Wire the Main Circuit using flexible ferrule 1/2x 4-35 mm² or rigid 1/2x 6-35 mm², and the Control Circuit with 0.75-2.5 mm² conductors. Tighten Main terminals to 4 N·m and auxiliary to 1.2 N·m. Follow 10 mm wire stripping for auxiliaries and 16 mm for mains. Ensure voltage ratings meet 690 V and that the control voltage is within 24-60 V.
For AC-3, ratings include 40 A at 415–440 V and 25 A at 690 V (with corresponding variants at 380/400 and 220–240 V). AC-1 supports up to 60 A at higher voltages (1000 V, 60 °C) or 70 A at 690 V (40 °C) and 50 A at 690 V (70 °C). The device also offers AC-3e with identical values and a 22 kW AC-3 rating at 415–690 V.
Yes. The device supports a control circuit voltage range of 24–60 V (AC or DC operation) and offers DIN rail mounting options TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 for fast panel integration. It uses screw terminals for reliable connections and accommodates common panel wiring standards, simplifying retrofit or new installation in standard industrial control panels.
The product carries IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60335-2-40, CSA equivalents, and CE/RoHS commitments. These certifications support compliance in NA and EU markets, simplify supplier qualification, and enable safe use with household and similar electrical appliances in UL listings. The CSA and UL validations help meet regional electrical safety and performance requirements.
High-cycle usage benefits from the contactor’s 22 kW AC-3 rating at 415–690 V and a 1200 cycles/hour maximum for AC-15, with 900 cycles/hour for DC-13 switching. Power loss is low (0.1 W per pole at 6 A; 3 W AC-1; 1 W AC-3). These factors reduce energy waste, improve uptime, and lower lifecycle costs in automated production lines.
