Schneider Electric GC25 Series Contactor, 230 V ac Coil, 2-Pole, 25 A, 2NO, 250 V ac

Need a reliable modular contactor for motor control or to switch heating and lighting applications? This 2-pole contactor from Schneider Electric will do the job. A contact current rating of 25A and contact voltage rating of 250V AC make it suitable for use with the UK mains electrical supply. It's constructed in a standard 17.5mm modular format and designed for mounting on a DIN rail. This device is optimised for low-noise operation so it can be used in public spaces.

• Operating temperature range of -5°C to +50°C makes it suitable for harsh environments
• 2NO (normally open) configuration completes the circuit when energised
• Screw terminals let you make quick and secure connections

• Industrial premises
• Agricultural settings
• Hospital systems

An electrical contactor is a device for switching an electrical circuit on or off. It's similar to a relay, but is used in applications where a higher current capacity is involved. A contactor can function on its own, as part of a motor starter or as a power-control device.

Electrical contactors are typically used for switching electrical loads in systems such as lighting, heating and motors.

Schneider Electric Modular Contactors

Low noise a.c. compact modular contactors and accessories are ideal for heating lighting and building service type applications. The units are designed for mounting in control panels or cabinets on symmetrical DIN rail or they may be housed in modular enclosures.
