Overview
The A9C22763 is a Schneider Acti 9 iCT remote control contactor, 3-pole, rated for 63 A switching current on a 240 V AC network. The coil is 240 V AC, and the unit clips onto a DIN rail with an IP20 enclosure. It is designed for lighting control in small commercial and residential installations, with a desynchronized neutral pole and maintained control signal type.
This is a remote-controlled contactor — the coil holds at 240 V AC and the main contacts switch the load circuit. The 63 A rating covers lighting groups in small commercial and residential panels, and the desynchronized neutral pole ensures the neutral opens after the phases and closes before them, reducing arcing on inductive LED loads. The maintained control signal means the contactor stays latched without continuous coil power after the initial pulse, cutting standby losses. Insulation is rated at 440 V AC with a 4000 V withstand, and the unit meets IEC/EN 61095 for contactors used in household and similar installations.
Applications
The A9C22763 is used for centralized lighting control in small commercial buildings — retail spaces, offices, and common areas — and residential multi-unit panels. It switches lighting circuits on and off from a remote timer, photocell, or building management system, and the 63 A rating handles large lighting groups without intermediate contactors. The manufacturer notes that LED lighting should be controlled as a group, which this contactor supports with its desynchronized neutral pole to manage inrush and leakage.
Within the Schneider Acti 9 range, the iCT series are dedicated remote control contactors for lighting. The A9C22763 sits at the higher end of the current range — 63 A — making it suitable for larger lighting zones where a 25 A or 40 A unit would be undersized.
The A9C22763 is an active Schneider product with no announced end-of-life. It carries an 18-month warranty and is compliant with IEC/EN 61095 and EN 60947-4-1 for tropicalized environments (2 levels conforming).
