Product details

Overview

The GC2502B5 is a Schneider TeSys GC contactor with 2 poles and a 2 NC power circuit, rated for 25 A switching current on a 24 VAC 50 Hz coil. It carries IEC 61095 and IEC 60947-5 approvals and is housed in an IP40 enclosure for clip-on DIN-rail mounting.

Applications

This contactor is suited for motor control, heating, and lighting applications in industrial and commercial panels. Typical installations include switching resistive and inductive loads in HVAC, conveyor systems, and lighting contactor banks where 2-pole normally-closed power circuits are required.
