Component Details
The Allen Bradley Magnetic Contactor (C55EJ10) is a 55A contactor designed for controlling electrical circuits in industrial environments. It is part of the Allen Bradley line of electronic and electromagnetic components that are known for their reliability, durability, and ease of use. The C55EJ10 has several unique features that make it an excellent choice for many industrial applications.
Coil and Contacts: The C55EJ10 uses a coil for energizing the magnetic core, which in turn activates the contacts. The coil has a high tolerance for over-temperature to prevent failure due to environmental factors. The contacts are made of high-conductivity materials to reduce contact resistance and wear. The contacts are coated with a corrosion-resistant finish to protect them from environmental conditions.
Current Carrying Capacity: The C55EJ10 has a current carrying capacity of 55A (rms) at 600VAC, making it suitable for applications with high load currents.
Configurations: The C55EJ10 is available in various configurations, including single pole, double pole, and triple pole types. The single pole configuration has one set of contacts, while the double pole configuration has two sets of contacts. The triple pole configuration combines two single pole or two double pole configurations into a single unit.
Application
The Allen Bradley Magnetic Contactor (C55EJ10) is widely used in industrial applications due to its reliability and durability. It is commonly used in controlling the power supply to electrical load circuits, such as motors, solenoids, and compressors. It is also used to provide protection for equipment during start-up and shut-down operations.
Motor Application: In motor applications, the C55EJ10 ensures reliable motor starting and stopping due to its high current carrying capacity and low contact resistance. It also provides overload protection for the motor, preventing damage to the motor and connected equipment.
Solenoid Application: The C55EJ10 is commonly used in solenoid applications due to its high switching capacity and durability. It provides reliable and consistent switching performance, making it suitable for applications that require frequent switching operations.
