The 220-240 V AC coil (50/60 Hz) pulls in reliably down to 0.8 of rated voltage per the datasheet, and the contactor carries a mechanical service life of 10,000,000 operations typical. It is designed for screw fixing to a mounting surface, with the vertical mounting surface rotatable +/-90° and tiltable +/-22.5° front-to-back, giving panel builders flexibility in enclosure layout.
Duty class and switching frequency
The contactor's maximum switching frequency varies by duty class: 700 operations per hour in AC-1 (resistive), 500/h in AC-3 (standard motor starting), 500/h in AC-3e (enhanced motor starting), 200/h in AC-2 (slip-ring motor), and 130/h in AC-4 (plugging/inching). The arcing time is 10-15 ms, and the operate delay (both AC and DC) is 60-100 ms, which matters for coordination in sequential start schemes.
Main power circuit accepts stranded conductors from 70 to 240 mm² — that's a heavy cable range, consistent with the S12 frame size intended for higher-current installations. The magnet coil uses screw-type terminals accepting solid or stranded wire: 2x (0.5-1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75-2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75-4 mm²). An auxiliary switch is included, rated at 10 A at 24 V, 2 A at 48 V and 60 V, and 1 A at 110 V — these are the switching limits for the auxiliary contacts, not the main poles.
Physical integration and environment
Dimensions: 214 mm height, 160 mm width, 225 mm depth. Mounting via screw fixing with a single 11 mm diameter hole. The size S12 frame is a standard industrial footprint, so panel cutouts and busbar systems designed for this frame class will accept it.
