DC contactor C300

high-powerelectromechanicalsingle-pole

The Eddicy C300 series are compact, 1-pole bidirectional NO contactors for DC up to 1,500 volts rated insulation voltage and a breaking capacity up to 4,500 amperes, making these contactors ideal for applications with high inrush current or high capacitance. The bi-directional DC contactors C300 switch high power in the smallest space. With a making capacity of up to 4,500 amperes, the extremely compact series is suitable for applications with high inrush currents or high capacitances. All versions can carry up to 500 amperes continuously In the event of a short circuit, even 6,000 amperes may flow for 20 milliseconds without the contacts welding. This means that the contactor retains its full function to separate large powers when required: up to 500 amperes and up to 1,500 volts – regardless of the direction of the current. This full bi-directionality is important for systems with a charging and discharging process, such as in battery storage or electric vehicles. Other typical applications are the DC circuit in inverters, combiner boxes in photovoltaic systems or the management of battery storage systems.
