Three-pole design with 3 NO main contacts and two auxiliary NO/NC contacts reduces wiring complexity. This configuration improves panel density and simplifies control wiring, cutting commissioning time in new builds. It is well suited for 3-phase motors in packaging lines and material-handling conveyors. Rated Operational Voltage up to 690 V for main and auxiliary circuits enables operation with high-power mains and international installations, reducing the need for multiple devices and simplifying spare parts stocking. This makes it ideal for conveyors, fans, and process lines that require reliable high-voltage switching. DC coil control from 48–130 V (50/60 Hz) and DC operation facilitates direct interfacing with standard PLCs and automation networks, minimizing interface hardware and potential signal degradation. The device also features low coil power loss per pole, improving overall energy efficiency in continuous duty applications. DIN rail mounting options TH35-15 and TH35-7.5, plus the option for mounting by screws, enable fast, flexible installation in varied panel configurations. This reduces install time and supports modular panel designs for OEMs and system integrators. Tightening torque values (Auxiliary 1.2 N·m, Control 1.2 N·m, Main 4 N·m) and screw-terminal connections support secure, vibration-resistant wiring with flexible/rigid conductor options up to 35 mm². This improves reliability in harsh industrial environments and simplifies field maintenance. Certifications and environmental compliance include IEC/EN 60947-1, 60947-4-1, UL 60335-2-40, CSA, RoHS, REACH, and WEEE alignment. Such broad compliance reduces regulatory risk for global deployments and supports cross-border procurement and installation in manufacturing sites.

FAQs
This reversing contactor supports DIN rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rails and offers screw mounting as an alternative. The compact 110 mm width and 144 mm depth simplify panel design, while screw-terminal connections handle flexible or rigid conductors up to 35 mm². These options enable fast, scalable integration into OEM panels and control cabinets.
The device features a main circuit rated up to 690 V with three NO main contacts and two NO/NC auxiliary contacts. Rated operational currents include AC-3 and AC-3e across multiple voltages, and the unit supports 48–130 V control voltage (50/60 Hz) or DC operation for the coil, enabling broad compatibility with standard industrial controls.
Yes. With three poles and 22 kW AC-3 rated power at typical mains voltages, plus robust short-time withstand performance, this contactor is well-suited for high-inertia loads. Its UL/CSA and EN/IEC certifications, along with compact enclosure and reliable terminal connections, support durable performance in demanding production environments.
The product complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and IEC/EN 60947-4-1, and is certified under UL 60335-2-40 and CSA. It also carries RoHS and REACH declarations, with WEEE alignment for B2B applications. These certifications help ensure global regulatory compliance and safer, more reliable operation in multinational facilities.
The ROI benefits arise from reduced wiring complexity, faster installation, and improved reliability. DIN-rail mounting with compact dimensions lowers enclosure space and labor costs, while UL/CSA compliance reduces regulatory risk and minimizes downtime due to regulatory findings. Combined, these factors contribute to lower total cost of ownership over equipment life cycles.
