ABB CR160 Lighting Contactor - UL E30541, 150A, 3P
Part Number: 7GSP017741R0006
Quick Summary
The ABB CR160 Lighting Contactor is a three-pole switch for motor and lighting control in industrial panels. Engineers often face space constraints and coil fatigue in frequent start-stop environments. This unit’s UL listing (E30541) and ETIM/eClass classifications support safe, compliant installation. With a compact footprint and 150A, 120V coil ratings, it reduces panel depth and commissioning time while improving reliability. Conversations with maintenance teams confirm lower contact wear and fewer nuisance trips under variable loads. The design supports easy installation in existing control panels and compatible wiring schemes for both motor and lighting circuits. That makes it a compelling choice for OEMs and repair shops aiming to reduce lifecycle costs.

FAQs
The CR160 is a three-pole device designed for 120V coil operation. For wiring, mount the unit in a compatible panel, connect the three load terminals to the controlled three-phase circuits, and attach the coil to the 120V control supply with proper insulation and secure terminal connections. Ensure enclosure clearance per manual and verify UL E30541 compliance before energizing.
Key specs include three poles (3P), a 150 A full-load current rating, and a 120 V coil. It features mechanical holding to reduce chatter, a UL E30541 listing, and ETIM EC000533 classification as a lighting control system component. Packaging supports one unit per package, with a net weight around 92 lb and substantial enclosure footprint for panel integration.
Yes. The CR160 is designed for motor and lighting control in industrial panels, delivering reliable switching in high-cycle environments. Its 150 A capacity supports moderate to large motors, while the 120V coil allows straightforward control wiring. Its mechanical hold reduces wear during frequent starts, improving uptime in conveyors, pumps, and HVAC systems.
The CR160 carries UL Certificate E30541 and is classified by ETIM as EC000533 for lighting control system components. It also aligns with eClass V11.1 27111005 and UNSPSC 39121529 classifications, which streamline procurement and compliance tasks in industrial environments.
The mechanical hold feature reduces coil fatigue and contact wear, lowering maintenance frequency and replacement costs in high-cycle applications. UL listing provides assurance of safety and regulatory compliance, while the robust 150 A rating supports longer service life under peak loads, contributing to lower total cost of ownership in automation projects.
