Install on a TH35 DIN rail (TH35-15 or TH35-7.5) with a secure click. Use screw terminals and wire Flexible with Ferrule 1/2x 1 to 2.5 mm² or rigid 1/2x 1 to 4 mm² conductors. Leave appropriate stripping length (9 mm) and tighten to 0.8–1.1 N·m. This ensures reliable connections with vibration resistance in automation panels.
Check Rated Operational Voltage main circuit up to 690 V AC, Rated Control Circuit Voltage 42 V DC, and Rated Operational Current AC-3 up to 20 A (depending on voltage). The coil consumes about 3.5 W, with a 6 kV impulse withstand, and 3 NO main contacts plus 1 NC auxiliary contact, suitable for 230–690 V systems.
Yes. With AC-3 power ratings up to 5.5 kW at 400–500 V and 20 A at 690 V, this mini contactor handles motor start/stop tasks efficiently. Its 3-pole arrangement and auxiliary contact provide essential interlock and feedback signals, making it a solid choice for compressors, fans, and conveyors in HVAC and manufacturing environments.
The BC7-30-01 carries CE, UL/CSA, and CB certifications, plus EAC and UKCA declarations. These certifications support global deployment in accordance with IEC/EN 60947-1, 60947-4-1, and 60947-5-1 standards, helping you meet regulatory requirements across regions.
With a rated life of up to 10 million mechanical cycles and low coil power, maintenance is minimal and downtime is reduced. The compact size, screw-terminal wiring, and robust DIN-rail mounting simplify replacement and diagnostics, delivering lower total cost of ownership in busy automation panels.
