It's rated for AC-3 motor control at 9 A, with a 220 V AC coil. This is the part you'd find in a motor starting panel where a reduced inrush current on start-up is needed — typical for pumps, fans, or compressors up to that current range. The 9 A AC-3 rating means it's sized for switching three-phase induction motors under load — the contactor set inside handles the break-make duty during the star-to-delta transition. The 220 V AC coil pulls in reliably across the rated operating range.
If you're planning a new panel design or a BOM freeze, this isn't the part to spec. For an existing line where this starter is already installed and you need a spare, the surplus channel is your option. The value's in the sort — a mixed liquidation lot with one of these might be worth pulling if the rest of the manifest checks out.
Environmental and mechanical specs that matter for fit
The IP2X front face means finger-safe from the front, but the body isn't sealed against dust or water ingress, so it's strictly for enclosed panel mounting. Climatic withstand conforms to IACS and IEC 60947-1 Annex Q category D, with protective treatment TH per IEC 60068-2-30 for damp heat. Mechanical robustness: the contactor withstands 2 Gn vibration when open, 4 Gn when closed, and shocks up to 10 Gn open / 15 Gn closed for 11 ms. That's enough for most fixed industrial installations, but not for mobile or high-shock applications.
