Overview
The CAD32P7TQ is a Schneider TeSys Deca auxiliary contactor, order code CAD32P7TQ, with 3 normally open and 2 normally closed poles rated for AC-14 and AC-15 control circuits. It uses a 230 VAC 50/60 Hz standard coil and is supplied in a bulk quantity of 10 units. This part is discontinued by the manufacturer.
The 230 VAC coil draws approximately 2.0 Ω resistance at nominal voltage, switching the 3 NO and 2 NC contacts for pilot duty loads. The AC-14 and AC-15 utilization categories cover solenoid and electromagnetic loads typical in contactor control circuits. Mechanically linked contacts per IEC 60947-5-1 ensure mirror contact performance for safety circuits.
Applications
This auxiliary contactor is used in motor control centers and panel builder assemblies to extend the contactor logic — interlocking, signaling, and sequencing of starter coils. The 3 NO + 2 NC arrangement suits applications requiring both normally open and normally closed auxiliary contacts, such as star-delta starters or reversing contactor interlock circuits.
