It carries a 24 V DC coil with an integrated diode surge suppressor, so the coil drive circuit needs only a simple DC supply — no external flyback diode required across the coil terminals. Rated for AC-3 duty at 5.5 kW on a 690 V three-phase supply, it handles the most common European motor voltages up to that level. The spring-loaded terminals on the main circuit accept 2x (0.25 to 2.5 mm²) solid or stranded wire, or 2x (24 to 14 AWG), which matches standard panel wiring practice for a contactor of this frame size.
Side-by-side mounting is permitted, but a 6 mm clearance to adjacent equipment is recommended for thermal derating in continuous duty.
The 24 V DC coil picks up at 85% of rated voltage (20.4 V) and holds at 1.4 W, both closing and holding. The built-in diode surge suppressor eliminates the need for external coil suppression, simplifying wiring and reducing panel clutter. One instantaneous auxiliary contact is included, configurable as normally open or normally closed depending on wiring. This is enough for a feedback signal to a PLC or a status lamp, but for more aux contacts an add-on block is needed.
Protection and coordination
For Type 1 coordination (contactor may need replacement after a fault), a 35 A gL/gG fuse is permitted. These values let the panel designer size the upstream protection without guesswork.
