VII. Installation and Wiring Specifications
Pasos de instalación:
- Confirm that the installation environment meets the range of -25℃~+55℃, free from severe vibration and corrosive gases.
- Select a 35mm standard DIN rail and ensure the mounting surface is flat.
- Align the contactor’s snap with the rail, press down and slide to fix (one-hand operation).
- Cut off all power supplies before wiring, and use a multimeter to confirm no voltage exists.
- Cableado del circuito principal: L1/L2/L3 → input terminals, T1/T2/T3 → output terminals.
- Cableado del circuito de control: A1/A2 → coil power supply, 13/14 → normally open auxiliary contacts, 21/22 → normally closed auxiliary contacts.
- Después de completar el cableado, gently pull the wires to confirm they are connected firmly without loosening.
Terminal Block Specifications:
Circuito principal: M6 bolts, suitable for copper core wires with cross-sectional area of 1.5-16mm²
circuito de control: M3.5 bolts, suitable for copper core wires with cross-sectional area of 0.5-2.5mm²
