Rated AC-3 at 16 A up to 440 V, it handles reversing duty on three-phase induction motors in the 5.5–7.5 kW range (depending on line voltage and duty cycle). The coil is 36 V AC, which keeps control-circuit voltage low for operator safety in wet or metallic environments. IP20 finger-safe terminals per VDE 0106 mean it mounts inside a panel with no additional shrouding for basic touch protection.
The AC-3 rating of 16 A at ≤440 V governs motor switching — that is the current the contactor can make and break under full-load motor start conditions (typically 6–8× FLC inrush). Operating altitude of 2000 m without derating covers most industrial sites; above that, air density drops and the contactor's arc-quenching margin narrows, so derate per IEC 60947-1.
