- Application & Operating Conditions
4.1 Main Applications
Used in AC 50/60Hz power systems up to 1140V for frequent starting/stopping and remote control of three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors.
Can be combined with thermal relays / motor protectors to form magnetic starters for overload protection.
Also used for switching resistive loads, capacitor banks, and other distribution loads.
4.2 Standard Operating Conditions
Температура окружающей среды: -5℃ ~ +40 ℃, average ≤ +35℃ in 24h
Высота: ≤ 2000m
Степень загрязнения: 3; Категория установки: Ⅲ
Mounting: Inclination ≤ ±5° from vertical; no significant shock or vibration
- Selection & Usage Notes
- Motor control: Under AC-3 duty, verify contactor current ≥ 1.25 × motor rated current. For heavy-duty / frequent inching, select one size larger.
- Электропроводка: Use copper cables with adequate current rating; tighten terminals to avoid overheating. Observe coil terminals A1/A2 polarity; do not exceed rated voltage.
- Maintenance: Regularly inspect arc chute and contacts for damage. Maintenance only when power is disconnected.
- Ordering: Specify model, coil voltage, and auxiliary contact configuration. Default: 4 НЕТ + 2 NC if not specified.
