KEY FEATURES
Hermetically sealed —
intrinsically safe. Operates
in explosive/harsh environ-
ments without oxidation or
contamination of contacts,
including long periods of
non-operation
8kV isolation between
open contacts permits use
for high voltage isolation
and carry
12, 24 and 48 Vdc coils
Designed and built in
accordance to AIAG
QS9000
DESCRIPTION
Lowest cost, 900 Vdc 100 amp, hermetically sealed DC contactor in the indus-
try
Compact package available in side- or bottom-mount configurations,
not position sensitive
APPLICATIONS
Power/motor control circuit isolation, circuit protection and safety
in industrial machinery
Automotive battery switching and backup
MECHANICAL
Compact epoxy-sealed resin enclosure occupies only about 4 in
3
(65.5 cm
