Current choices are AC-3 at 380V. The selected current and auxiliary contacts form an enquiry configuration only: exact coil voltage and frequency must be stated in your enquiry and confirmed before ordering. The original PDF does not enumerate the complete coil-voltage range, so unverified voltage buttons are not offered. 4-pole and reversing assemblies are outside this page. Photographs illustrate the original series and can show different frames or auxiliary arrangements.
Typical applications
- Remote switching in industrial control and distribution circuits within the documented duty ratings.
- Motor or load control with correctly coordinated protection and accessories.
