Key specifications

• Rated operational current: 15A
• Number of poles: 3
• Coil voltage: 400V AC
• Auxiliary contact configuration: 1NO

How to use

The Eaton DILM15-10 should be mounted onto a standard DIN rail or a flat surface within a protected electrical enclosure. Ensure that the power supply matches the 400V AC coil voltage specification before connection. Wiring should be performed by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical codes, ensuring all terminals are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque settings to prevent overheating.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 400V AC coil voltage is compatible with your control circuit.
• Ensure the 15A current rating is sufficient for your specific motor or load requirements.
• Check available space in your control cabinet for mounting.

Usage recommendations

Always perform a functional test after installation to ensure the contactor engages and disengages correctly under load. Regularly inspect terminal connections for tightness and signs of wear during routine maintenance intervals.
