The AC and DC contactor CH1030 is designed for a nominal switching capacity of 70 kW. It is used for the activation of power supply systems and as a main and auxiliary contactor of heating registers in heating and air-conditioning systems. The guiding bars on the fixed contacts force the electric arc into the arcing chamber during shutdown.
The permanent magnets drive the electric arc into the attached electric arc chamber. In addition, the contactors are able to switch currents of up to 60 Hz.
The CH1030 series boasts two S800-series snap-action switches. These report the state of the main contacts reliably to the higher-level control system.
Due to their approval for rail applications, the contactors can also be used in extreme temperatures.
