Product details

It's rated for AC-3 and AC-4 duty, meaning it's built for starting and plug-reversing squirrel-cage motors — the AC-3 figure of 16 A at 440 V is the one that governs motor switching, not the resistive AC-1 rating. The coil pulls in at 127 V AC, which is common in North American control transformers stepping down from 480 V.

Fit and integration notes

It measures 90 mm wide by 58 mm high by 57 mm deep — that 57 mm depth is the dimension to watch when you're laying out the DIN rail against the gland plate or a shallow enclosure door. It's rated for -25 to 50 °C ambient operation, which covers most indoor panel conditions but not a hot rooftop cabinet in direct sun.

Frequently asked questions

What is the AC-3 motor rating?

It's rated 16 A at 440 V in AC-3 duty, which covers starting and stopping squirrel-cage motors up to that current. The same contactor also carries an AC-4 rating for plug-reversing and inching applications.

What is the coil voltage?

The coil is 127 V AC, 50/60 Hz — a common control voltage derived from a 480 V-to-127 V control transformer.

What compliance documentation is available?

The housing is UL 94 V-1 flame rated and also complies with NF F 16-101 and NF F 16-122 for rail applications. IP20 per VDE 0106. Protective treatment meets IEC 60068 and DIN 50016.
