ODM A9~300 Series AC Contactors 50/60Hz 380V Manufacturers, Factories

The A9~300 Series AC Contactors are engineered for 50/60Hz systems, supporting voltages up to 660V and operational currents up to 300A at 380V under AC-3 category. Ideal for long-distance circuit making and breaking, they pair with thermal overload relays or electronic starters for overload protection. Key features include a direct-action double-break contact structure, arc-resistant plastic housing, durable silver alloy contacts, a compact E-shaped iron core, and flexible coil wiring options for easy installation.

Main Structure and Working Principle

1. The contactor features a positive-mounted, direct-action double-break contact structure. The cover and body consist of arc-resistant plastic. Models A9-16 use natural arc extinguishing, while A9-26 to 110 incorporate U-shaped arc extinguishing plates for superior performance with zero arc-over distance. Contacts are silver-based alloy for excellent conductivity and long service life. The iron core uses a compact E-shaped design with flexible coil wiring options.

The base is glass fiber reinforced plastic, ensuring high strength and dielectric properties. Installation supports both screws and DIN rail. All live conductive parts are enclosed for safety.

2. Working Principle: When the control power is applied to the pull-in coil, the magnetic system generates electromagnetic force, driving moving parts to make or break the circuit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum installation altitude for these contactors?
The installation site elevation should not exceed 2000 meters for optimal performance.
Can the A9 series contactors be mounted horizontally?
Yes, the contactors can be mounted both vertically and horizontally. If mounted vertically, the gradient should not exceed ±30°.
What materials are used for the contacts?
The contacts are made of an anti-welding, wear-resistant silver-based alloy, providing high conductivity and a long service life.
How does the arc extinguishing system work in different models?
Models A9-16 use natural arc extinguishing, while models A9-26 to 110 feature U-shaped arc extinguishing plates to form a sealed chamber, resulting in zero arc-over distance.
What are the temperature requirements for operation?
The ambient air temperature should be between -5°C and +40°C, with a 24-hour average not exceeding +35°C.
What mounting options are available?
The contactors support flexible installation via standard screws or DIN rail (TH35 or TH75 depending on the model).
