The contactor clips onto a DIN rail (35 mm) and occupies 2 modules of 18 mm width (36 mm total), making it a compact fit for crowded enclosures. Its IP20 finger-safe terminals (IP40 in enclosure per VDE 0106) suit panel-mount applications where the contactor is behind a cabinet door. Heat dissipation is 1.6 W per pole at 50/60 Hz. The part conforms to IEC 60947-5 and IEC 61095, which cover control-circuit devices and contactors for household and similar purposes. No UL or CSA listing is stated; verify local code acceptance if the installation requires those marks. ## Integration notes Mounting is clip-on onto a DIN rail. The operating position allows up to 30° from vertical. Tightening torque for both control and power circuit screw-clamp terminals is 0.8 N·m. Operating time is 10…25 ms opening and 10…30 ms closing. Maximum operating rate is 300 cycles per hour at 50 °C. Mechanical durability is rated at 1,000,000 cycles; electrical durability at 100,000 cycles for both AC-7A and AC-7B categories. Control voltage limits: pick-up at 0.85…1.1 Uc (48 V AC), drop-out at 0.2…0.75 Uc at 50 Hz. Inrush power is 34 VA at 50 Hz. Average impedance of the power circuit is 2.5 mΩ at Ith 25 A, 50 Hz.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GC2522E5 TeSys GC Modular Contactor, 48 V","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GC2522E5 TeSys GC modular contactor, 4-pole, 48 VAC 50 Hz control.
