Advantages

This contactor offers exceptional operational reliability in demanding industrial environments. The Push-In terminal technology is a primary benefit, as it drastically reduces wiring time compared to traditional screw terminals while ensuring vibration-resistant connections. The compact design allows for efficient use of space within control cabinets, and the integrated auxiliary contacts simplify the overall circuit design by reducing the need for additional components. Its high-quality construction ensures long-term durability and consistent performance under frequent switching cycles.

Suitable for

• Industrial motor control systems
• Heating and lighting circuits
• Automation and control panels
• Switching of inductive and resistive loads

When it may not be suitable

This device is designed specifically for 24V AC control voltage and will not function correctly with DC control systems or different AC voltage levels. It is not intended for high-current applications exceeding its 11 kW rating at 400V.

Key specifications

• Number of poles: 3
• Power rating: 11 kW at 400V
• Control coil voltage: 24V AC
• Auxiliary contacts: 1NO + 1NC
• Connection type: Push-In spring-loaded terminals

How to use

Installation should be performed by qualified personnel in accordance with local electrical regulations. The contactor is designed for DIN-rail mounting within a standard control cabinet. Insert the control wires into the Push-In terminals until they are securely locked. Ensure that the main power lines are connected to the primary terminals and that the auxiliary contacts are wired according to your specific control logic requirements. Always verify that the control voltage matches the 24V AC specification before energizing the circuit.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your control system provides a 24V AC signal.
• Ensure the load requirements do not exceed the 11 kW capacity.
• Confirm that the Push-In terminal style is compatible with your existing wiring standards.
• Check available space in your control cabinet for mounting.

Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the terminal connections during routine maintenance to ensure they remain secure. Keep the contactor free from dust and moisture to maintain optimal electrical performance and extend the service life of the device.
