Product details

It handles 160 A in AC-3 duty (motor start/run) and 100 A in AC-3e duty up to 440 V, with a 380 V AC coil that works on 50/60 Hz supplies. It's built to EN/IEC 60947-4-1 (the contactor standard for motor starters) and carries IP2X finger protection on the enclosure. The 1.5 ms non-overlap time between NC and NO contacts is a detail the panel builder cares about — it prevents a momentary short across the coil circuit when the contactor transitions.

That -5 °C lower end means it's fine for a heated electrical room but not for an unheated shed in a northern winter — if the panel sits outdoors, you'll want to check the ambient at startup.

Frequently asked questions
