127091 DILEM12-01(230V50HZ,240V60HZ) Eaton DILEM Contactor, 230 V ac Coil, 3 Pole, 12 A, 5.5 kW, 1NC

Eaton Contactors - DILEM & DILEEM Series_x000D_ Eaton's range of DILEM & DILEEM contactors are predominantly used in larger-scale operations, they are designed to provide a long mechanical and electrical life which in turn accomplishes reliability. Users will commonly find these contactors integrated within industrial buildings and factory installations, enabling automated processes of motors and resistive loads_x000D_ Features & Benefits_x000D_ Easier engineering through identical construction sizes for AC- and DC-operated contactors_x000D_ Energy savings and higher packing density in control panel due to minimized heat dissipation_x000D_ High wiring security through doubled box terminals_x000D_ Less coupler relays: direct actuation from the PLC for contactors up to 32 A_x000D_ Easy engineering through integrated suppressor circuits for DC_x000D_ Wide operating temperature_x000D_ Surface or DIN rail mounting_x000D_ Ingress Protection Rating of IP20 on the contacts protecting against solid objects up to 12mm, - has no protection against water_x000D_ Mechanical Interlock for use with DILE* Series 326-740 (does not prevent fitting of auxiliary contact blocks)_x000D_ How contactors operate?_x000D_ If you have asked yourself this question, rest assured you are not the only person that has wondered how contactors work. If you've wondered how do contactors differ from a relay? The following answer will also explain that. A contactor is essentially a relay, it holds very similar functions, but it is typically used in larger-scale applications. In most cases, a contactor is a switch that can be controlled remotely, specifically designed to switch a large amount of electrical power through its contacts._x000D_ Eaton 3-Pole Contactor, 400V AC Contact Voltage, 12A Contact Current - DILEM Series - 127091 DILEM12-01(230V50HZ,240V60HZ)_x000D_ This 3-pole contactor from Eaton is an electrically controlled switching device. It's designed for repeatedly opening and closing a circuit and is suited to higher current carrying applications, like powerful lighting systems. You can also use it as an electric motor starter. The terminal is double-boxed for greater wiring protection, so there's less risk of the conductors being damaged in harsh operating conditions. A mechanical lifespan of up to 10 million operations makes this device long-lasting and consistently reliable throughout its service life. Its screw terminals accept both solid and stranded wires across a wide diameter range of 18 to 14 AWG (American Wire Gauge) for easy compatibility._x000D_ Features & Benefits_x000D_ • Snaps quickly onto a DIN rail for rapid and tool-free mounting_x000D_ • Wide operating temperature range of -25°C to +50°C for use in demanding environments_x000D_ • Includes short-circuit protection so there's less risk of a power fault affecting a motor starter_x000D_ What's the difference between a contactor and a relay?_x000D_ The main difference between a contactor and a relay is the load capacity each can handle. Contactors are built to handle much higher power switching applications than relays, which are typically used with loads of around 5 to 15A._x000D_ Note_x000D_ Eaton formerly known as Moeller
