Its utilisation categories tell you what loads it can switch: AC-15 (solenoid valves, electromagnetic brakes — inductive loads above 72 VA), AC-14 (small electromagnets, clutches — inductive loads up to 72 VA), and DC-13 (solenoids with series resistor — DC inductive loads). Rated operational voltage is listed at 10 MOhm — that is the insulation resistance between live parts, not a switching voltage. The device short name CAD and the TeSys range place it in Schneider's standard-duty control relay family, snap-in terminal style for DIN-rail mounting. At 45 mm wide and 107 mm tall, it occupies one standard modular space — plan your enclosure fill factor accordingly. Depth of 93 mm means it clears most 120 mm deep enclosures but check gland-plate clearance if wiring from the rear. Storage range of -60 to 80 °C is wider — handling and shipping, not running, is what that limit governs. Mechanical robustness is specified for shock and vibration: 10 Gn for 11 ms when open, 15 Gn when closed; vibration at 2 Gn (open) and 4 Gn (closed) across 5–300 Hz. These are the values to check against your machine's vibration profile — if you are mounting on a press or crusher, the closed-contact rating is the relevant one. Multi-standard compliance covers 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. This means the same part number works across European, North American, Chinese, and Japanese installations — no region-specific variant needed. The TH protective treatment (IEC 60068) confirms it is tropicalised for humid environments.","metaTitle":"Schneider TeSys CAD50AY7 Control Relay, 5NO, AC-15/DC-13","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric TeSys CAD50AY7 control relay with 5 NO contacts, rated for AC-15/DC-13 utilisation.

The CAD50AY7 is a 5 NO configuration; if you need normally-closed contacts, look at the CAD series variants with NC poles. Pin-compatibility depends on the terminal layout — snap-in terminals are standard across the Deca range."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/schneider/CAD50AY7","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/CAD50AY7 when reusing this data.
