American Electrical DIN Rail Mounted CDC40-12 Relay Contactor
The American Electrical CDC40-12 is a heavy-duty 3-pole contactor designed for reliable switching in industrial and commercial applications. Built to handle high-demand loads like motors and large lighting arrays, this contactor offers a high current rating of 60A in a compact, 45mm wide DIN rail mounted package.
With a 12V coil, this unit is ideal for systems where low-voltage control circuits manage high-voltage power distribution. It features built-in auxiliary contacts (2NO and 2NC) for easy integration into complex control logic or status monitoring systems.
Key Features
High Load Capacity: Rated for 60A continuous current, making it suitable for NEMA Size 1 motor starting and heavy-duty lighting circuits.
Low Voltage Control: Designed with a 12V coil, allowing for safe control from low-voltage PLCs or battery-powered systems.
Auxiliary Flexibility: Comes standard with 2 Normally Open (NO) and 2 Normally Closed (NC) auxiliary contacts for signaling and interlocks.
Robust Protection: Features a rated impulse withstand voltage of 8 kV, providing superior resistance against power surges and voltage spikes.
Standard DIN Mounting: Easily snaps onto standard 35mm DIN rail for organized and quick panel assembly.
