RAC20-020/UC230V

Installation contactors are electromagnetic switching devices designed to reliably switch various types of electrical loads, such as lighting systems, heating, air conditioning, motors, or pumps. They have a rest position and can safely switch, conduct, and interrupt currents under normal operating conditions, as well as in overload situations. The double-break contacts interrupt the circuit at two points simultaneously, reducing contact wear, improving arc suppression during switching, and thus ensuring a particularly long service life.Our installation contactors are equipped with two to four independent contacts, allowing you to switch different voltages at the same time.The hum-free operation makes them suitable for low noise environments.RAC installation contactors are equipped with a manual control function and an integrated slide switch, providing users with three selectable operating modes, including disconnection. This feature supports functional testing during commissioning and simplifies maintenance, ensuring both ease and safety.
