Application Note:
1. Be sure to use washer to prevent screws from loosening, all the terminals or
copper bar must be in direct contact with the contactor’s terminals.
Current vs Time Curve • Contact Terminal Torque: 53 - 70 lb.in (6 - 8 N.m)
• Mounting Torque: 15 - 30 lb.in (1.7 - 3.3 N.m)
2. Contact terminals are polarized so refer to drawing during connecting. There
is a reverse surge absorption circuit so that it is not necessary to use a surge
protective device.
3. Do not use if dropped.
4. Avoid installing in a strong magnetic field (close to a transformer or magnet),
or near a heat source.
5. Electrical life
Use per load capability and life cycle limits so as not to cause a function
failure (treat the contactor as a product with specified life and replace it when
necessary). It is possible to make parts burn around the contactor once
operating failure occurs. It is necessary to take layout considerations into
account and to make sure power shall be cut off within 1 second.
6. Avoid debris or oil contamination of the main terminals to optimize contact and
avoid excess heat generation.
