It's designed for high-power motor control and resistive loads, with a motor power rating of 450 kW at 1000 V AC and 375 kW at 415 V AC. The utilisation categories cover AC-3 (squirrel-cage motors), AC-4 (plugging/inching), and AC-1 (non-inductive or slightly inductive loads), so it's suited for heavy-duty switching in industrial panels. The contactor also carries a rated breaking capacity of 3200 A at 1000 V, which is the fault-clearing capability it can handle without welding or damage.
Dimensions are 12.0 in (304 mm) high, 15.3 in (389 mm) wide, and 10.04 in (255 mm) deep — this is a large frame, so plan for adequate panel space and cable bending radius. Power connections are via two 60 x 5 mm bars per pole, torqued to 513.3 lbf·in (58 N·m). The control circuit is 240 V AC 50/60 Hz, with latching and unlatching limits of 0.85 to 1.1 times Uc. The coil draws 2300 VA during latching (about 9.6 A inrush) and 11 VA holding — but since it's a latching contactor, there's no holding current once latched; the coil is only energised during the transition.
The contactor is designed to IEC 60947-4, VDE 0660, NF C 63-110, JEM 1038, and BS 5424 — these are the key standards for contactors and motor-starters across European, German, French, Japanese, and UK markets. For North American installations, the UL/CSA motor power ratings are listed: 800 hp at 575-600 V, 600 hp at 460-480 V, and 300 hp at 220-240 V for three-phase motors. The rated insulation voltage is 1000 V per IEC 60947-4 and BS 775, with a VDE 0110 group C rating of 1500 V.
