That 10 A coil draw at 24 VDC is the burden on the control transformer or PLC output driving it; the contactor itself is rated to switch motor loads up to the contactor's AC-3 rating, which for this frame typically lands around 7 A at 400 V for a 3 kW motor. Spring-loaded terminals on the main circuit accept 2x (0.25... 2.5 mm²) solid or stranded, so it terminates into standard control wiring without ferrules if you strip to 8 mm. The 45 mm width and snap-on mounting onto 35 mm DIN rail per EN 50022 means it fits a standard panel footprint — side-by-side mounting is permitted, so you can gang several on the same rail without derating the enclosure's thermal budget provided you stay within the rated operating temperature range of -25... +60 °C.
Coil and switching ratings
The coil is rated for 110 V at 50 Hz and 120 V at 60 Hz, with a holding power of 5.1 V·A at 50 Hz. The arcing time across the main contacts runs 10... 15 ms — that's the interval the arc extinguishes after the contacts part, which matters for coordination with upstream fuses or breakers in a motor branch circuit. Switching frequency at AC-1 (resistive load) maxes out at 1 000 operations per hour; for motor duty (AC-3) you'd derate that significantly — the mechanical life of 30 000 000 operations is the limit before wear, not the electrical life under load.
The mounting position allows vertical surface with +/-180° rotation and +/-30° tilt forward/back — so you can orient it in a tight cabinet as long as the coil's magnetic circuit isn't fighting gravity. Storage temperature range is -55... +80 °C, operating range -25... +60 °C.
