Product details

The coil and main power connections use spring-type terminals — no screwdriver needed for the coil, and spring-loaded clamps on the main circuit — which speeds up panel wiring and holds firm under vibration. Mounting is screw or snap-on onto 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 50022, and the contactor can be rotated ±180° on a vertical surface or tilted ±22.5° forward/backward, giving flexibility in tight enclosures. Mechanical life is rated at 30 million cycles typical, and it operates from -25 to +60 °C, with storage from -55 to +80 °C.

Integration Notes

The S00 frame measures 45 mm wide, 70 mm high, and 73 mm deep — a compact footprint that fits standard 35 mm DIN rail panels. Side-by-side mounting is allowed with a 6 mm gap at the side, zero clearance above, below, forward, or backward.
