The Schneider CAD50AE7 is a TeSys Deca control relay with five normally open (5 NO) pole contacts, designed for switching control circuits in industrial panels. It carries a 48 V AC standard coil and is rated for operational voltages up to 690 V. The snap-in terminals simplify wiring and panel assembly. Rated for utilization categories AC-15 (electromagnetic loads), AC-14 (control circuit loads with low inrush), and DC-13 (solenoid/contactors with parallel diode suppression), this relay covers the common control-circuit switching duties in motor starter and PLC output isolation applications. The 5 NO arrangement gives you five independent make contacts in a single 45 mm wide package.
Mounts on a DIN rail in the standard 45 mm footprint (width 45 mm, height 107 mm, depth 93 mm). The IP2X front-face protection (per VDE 0106) means accidental finger contact with live terminals is prevented when the relay is installed in a closed panel — standard for control-gear compartments. Operates from -40 to 60 °C with full rating, and up to 70 °C with derating. Storage range is -60 to 80 °C. Altitude rating to 3000 m without derating. The TH protective treatment (conforming to IEC 60068) means it withstands tropical humid environments — relevant for HVAC or outdoor-adjacent cabinet placement. Mechanical robustness: survives 10 Gn shocks (11 ms) in the open state and 15 Gn in the closed state. Vibration resistance is 2 Gn (5–300 Hz) open, 4 Gn closed. These figures mean the relay holds its state under moderate machine vibration — suitable for mounting near conveyor drives or pump motors without auxiliary dampening.
Certified to EN/IEC 60947-5-1 (control circuit devices), UL 60947-5-1, CSA C22.2 No 60947-5-1, GB/T 14048.5, and JIS C8201-5-1. This covers acceptance in European, North American, Chinese, and Japanese installations — a single part number for multi-jurisdiction BOMs.
