How It Works
The WCED 2 Pole 63A Modular Contactor operates using an electromagnetic coil to control electrical circuits:
- Default State: In its normally open (NO) configuration, the contacts remain open, preventing current flow.
- Activation: When the control voltage energises the coil, the electromagnetic force pulls the armature, closing the contacts to allow current flow.
- Deactivation: When the coil is de-energised, the contacts return to their open state, stopping the current flow.
Applications
- Residential: Suitable for controlling lighting systems and medium-capacity heating circuits.
- Commercial: Ideal for office lighting, HVAC systems, and automation devices.
- Light Industrial: Effective for managing motors, pumps, and other equipment.
