VII. Installation and Maintenance Notes

Antes de la instalación, check that the contactor has no damage to appearance, no oxidation of coil and contacts, and the mechanical mechanism is flexible without jamming.
When installing on DIN rail, reserve ≥50mm heat dissipation space and avoid close installation with other heating elements.
During wiring, use wires suitable for 25A current for main circuit terminals (4mm² copper core cable is recommended) and tighten terminal screws (tightening torque 2.5N·m).
Use 1.5mm² copper core cable for control loop wiring to avoid excessive voltage drop due to insufficient wire diameter.
Conduct regular inspection every 3 meses:

Check contact wear; replace when contact thickness is less than 1mm.

Monitor coil temperature; normal operating temperature should be ≤80℃.

Check flexibility of mechanical mechanism and remove dust and oil stains.

After a fault occurs, cut off power supply first, troubleshoot and repair before putting into use; operation with fault is strictly prohibited.

Supplementary Selection Tips

Load Matching Priority: Para cargas de motores, select according to rated current under AC-3; for power distribution/lighting loads, select according to rated current under AC-1. The load current shall be ≤80% of the contactor’s rated current to avoid overload.
Coil Voltage Selection: Prioritize voltage consistent with the control loop (p.ej., 220V). DC coils are suitable for industrial scenarios with strong electromagnetic interference to avoid false pull-in.
Auxiliary Contact Expansion: All specifications can be equipped with AX series auxiliary contact sets (2NO/2NC/1NO+1NC) to meet the needs of signal feedback and interlock control.
Reversible Control Configuration: Seleccionar 2 contactors of the same specification and install mechanical interlock module to prevent main circuit short circuit.
