Product details

Mounting and fit

The LC1G500BEEA: Plate-mount contactor: 226 mm deep, 140 mm wide, 290 mm tall. The 45 mm pole pitch keeps wiring orderly. Power terminals accept bar up to 32×10 mm or ring lugs up to 185 mm²; control terminals push-in for solid or ferruled stranded 0.2-2.5 mm².

Performance under duty

Rated breaking capacity 4600 A at 440 V; making capacity 5090 A — handles inrush on large motors without contact weld. Power dissipation per pole: 40 W at AC-1 (Ith 700 A), 20 W at AC-3 (Ith 500 A). Heat budget can be estimated for panel cooling. Coil technology includes built-in bidirectional peak limiting, so the inrush power at 350 W DC is controlled and does not stress the control transformer.
