Rated 40 A in AC-3 utilisation category at operational voltages up to 440 V, meaning it is sized for switching three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors under full-load starting conditions. The AC-3 rating is the governing figure for motor control applications; the contactor also carries AC-1 and AC-3e categories for resistive and enhanced motor loads respectively. The 380 V AC coil voltage is a specific control-circuit requirement. Verify that the existing control transformer or PLC output matches this nominal voltage, as the coil's operating range is tied to the -5...55 °C permissible ambient temperature at rated coil voltage (Uc). Mechanical robustness is specified for vibration and shock: 1.5 Gn (5...300 Hz) when open, 3 Gn when closed, and shock resistance of 10 Gn for 11 ms in the closed position. This qualifies the contactor for installation on machinery subject to moderate industrial vibration, such as conveyor drives or pump skids.
This covers the product safety, performance, and coordination requirements for low-voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies. For audit purposes, the datasheet provides the traceable certification basis. The IP2X degree of protection per IEC 60529 indicates finger-safe terminals but not washdown capability. Operates without derating up to 3000 m altitude. Above that, consult the thermal derating curve in the full technical documentation.
Dimensions: 86 mm depth, 56 mm width, 84 mm height.
