DC Contactor – C320 series
£0.00
Product Description
The bidirectional DC contactors of the C320 series extend the application range of the successful C310 and C360 series. The compact devices switch even higher powers. With a rated short-circuit breaking capacity of up to 3,000 amps, the contactors are suitable for applications with high inrush currents. The devices can permanently conduct up to 1,000 amps – thanks to high contact forces with measurably less heating in the main contact system. In the event of a short circuit, as much as 4,500 amps may flow for 100 milliseconds without the contacts welding. This means that the contactor retains its full function in order to disconnect large powers when required, regardless of the direction of the current. This excellent breaking capacity is made possible by an efficient ceramic arc chamber with generously dimensioned air gaps.
