FAQs
This device is a 3P block contactor designed for 3-phase motors up to 55 kW at 400 V AC (AC-3) with main circuit current ratings up to 160 A AC-1 and 116 A AC-3. It supports flexible main conductors (2 x 10-70 mm²) and auxiliary wiring options (0.75-2.5 mm² ferrules or 1-4 mm² solid/stranded) and can be extended with add-on auxiliary blocks to match control signaling requirements.
Key specs include a 690 V rated main circuit, 50/60 Hz operating frequency, and AC-1 current of 160 A (40 °C) / 145 A (60 °C) / 130 A (70 °C); AC-3 current of 116 A across several voltages (e.g., 415 V, 440 V, 690 V). It provides a rated power for AC-3 up to 55 kW at 400 V and a rated breaking capacity of 8 x Ie.
Yes. The device is designed for IEC 60947-4-1 compliant motor protection and control. It features 3 main NO contacts, 1 auxiliary NO/NC contact, a 690 V main circuit rating, and built-in surge protection, making it compatible with standard motor starters and control circuits in IEC 60947-4-1 environments.
The contactor carries UL/CSA listings for 600 V general use, CE Declaration of Conformity, and UKCA compliance. It’s RoHS and REACH compliant, with CMRT for conflict minerals reporting and WEEE B2B classification, suitable for global industrial deployments.
Benefits include reduced energy consumption due to efficient AF technology and built-in surge protection, lower maintenance from higher mechanical durability (up to 5 million cycles), and easier wiring via flexible main/auxiliary connections. The compact footprint and expandable auxiliary blocks also shorten panel assembly time, improving total cost of ownership in high-demand automation applications.
