AC-15 covers solenoid valve and contactor coil loads — the inductive inrush that burns up a general-purpose relay. AC-14 is for electromagnetic devices with lower inrush. DC-13 handles DC solenoids and clutches. If your control circuit is switching contactor coils or DC actuators, this relay is rated for that specific duty, not just a generic resistive load. Snap-in terminals mean the relay clips directly onto a DIN rail — no screws, no tools for the base mount. Front-face IP2X per VDE 0106 keeps accidental finger contact out of the live terminals. The 45 mm width and 107 mm height fit standard control-panel pitch; depth is 93 mm, so watch the clearance to the enclosure door or backplane if you're packing rows tight. Altitude rated to 3000 m without derating. TH protective treatment per IEC 60068 covers tropical humidity environments — no extra conformal coating needed for most panel installations. Compliant with EN/IEC 60947-5-1, UL 60947-5-1, CSA C22.2 No 60947-5-1, GB/T 14048.5, and JIS C8201-5-1. That covers the major industrial control standards for Europe, North America, China, and Japan. No separate UL/CSA listing numbers to chase — the relay carries the standard approvals for panel builders shipping globally. ## Mechanical robustness Rated for 10 Gn shocks for 11 ms with the relay open, 15 Gn closed. Vibration resistance is 2 Gn from 5 to 300 Hz open, 4 Gn closed. This is a relay that stays latched on a conveyor line or pump skid — not a panel-mount-only device that drops out under vibration.","metaTitle":"TeSys CAD50AED Control Relay, 5NO, 48V DC Coil, Active","metaDescription":"Active TeSys Deca control relay CAD50AED, 5NO contacts, 48V DC coil, rated up to 690V.

The closest peer would be a variant with a different coil voltage (e.g., 24 V DC or 110 V AC) or a different contact configuration (e.g., 3NO+2NC). The contact block and mounting footprint are shared across the Deca control relay family, so swapping coil voltage or adding auxiliary contacts is straightforward without changing the panel layout."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/schneider/CAD50AED","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/schneider/CAD50AED when reusing this data.
